Eliminators on the Market (November 2019)

Been cold and dry here, so getting the Eliminator out whenever I can. Rain comes back again end of the week, so that will probably signal the start of Winter Projects! Plan for the winter is to redo that rear axle, and hopefully resolve a lot of that gear howl >.< Might finally convert the taillights and turn signals over the LED too.

The following Eliminators appear to have sold last month (price shown is listed price, or hammer price for auction cars)…

9F91G582888 - 1969 Boss 302/4spd. Bright Yellow/Black Interior. Mecum Chicago - $67.1k (incl. fees)
^the new owner has been put in contact with the owner of the original block!
9F91M559890 - 1969 351/auto. Hertz Sunroof, Competition Orange, White Interior. In VA for $25k

I mentioned it on the Oct thread but will repeat here so it doesn’t get lost.

This E-cat is near me if anyone wants me to lay eyes on it, feel free to PM me.

*Kinda sad story on this one. Previous owner inherted the car from her father. She had it for years, but ended up losing her storage for the car and was forced to sell recently. New owner has other Cougars and projects on his plate, so he’s looking for a new home for the E-cat.

Looks like a nice car, but definitely needs more pics - especially for that kind of money. One thing I notice is that it looks like XR7 trim on the drivers door in the 5th pic (lower left corner) ??

edit:
ok - just watched the video. Car looks nice.

1970 Competition Orange 351C 4 speed right hand drive

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/937766826608802/

That right hand drive stuff is funky for sure. I can’t even imaging the amount of work required to complete that!

If you run the numbers on that wrong-side drive car, it’s pretty neat. The odometer, if accurate and truly km, not miles…is only 56,980 miles.

His asking price translates to $31,737 USD, and shipping is about $3,500. I dunno…$35k for a nice, low miles Eliminator with a rare wrong-side drive? It’d be kinda cool. I could see it.
