1967 to 1968 production Mustangs with 427 Engine installation.

Doug.. No 427 for you! Too fast for your Shelby Wheel chair! ( with signature delete)

[propayne]

The paperwork was filed to homologate the 427 in the Cougar.

Auto would have probably been fine for drag racing.

Too late! That ones' a tunnel port. I had to put a C6 in it though.

[shelbydoug]

Doug you are delirious. We have told you many times you dont know anything.

Well, this is true, but I expect that from you.

You know that I am normally flakey anyway, so with this combination of fever, cough syrup with codine and Jack Daniels, all bets are off? What will I say next? No one knows. Not even me. It depends on what's in the next TV commercial?

Depends? No not yet.

Nah, makes a blue haze, kinda' like a burnout?

Hey. Did you notice that a moderator showed up and just locked "that" (wink, wink) entire thread? Less work that way?

Sip. Cheers!

Are you claiming with this document that there were 1,000 427 Cougars made? Wow? 1,000? Where are they all?

Oh wait, I think I just saw another one just drive by? Sure. It had an Emu with sunglasses riding shotgun. It was yellow.

Ford pulled the plug on the Cougar program - so late in the year that it left Gurney and Jones without a regular ride for 1968.

So this document is not accurate? It's a falsehood? It states that there are 1,000 cars already made as on November 30, 1967?

Shame, shame, shame.

Is someone hording them all in a secret private collection? Maybe in a warehouse in Oklahoma?

[FL SAAC]

Since they could not achieve the goal of homologation 1,000 cougars,  all those 427 where installed in these water crafts.

Only three are known to exist currently owned by Barry Manilow, Rosie O'Donnell and Morgan Freeman

No, no, no! The document CLEARLY STATES that the build of 1,000 cars was COMPLETED on November 30, 1967! So where are they?

FORD wouldn't lie would they? I'm devastated.

There is definitely a conspiracy here.

[propayne]

I think the legal term for that is a "promissory note"?

As in, "Go ahead and homologate these, we PROMISE we will build them by November 30th, 1967".

That is a document the GT-E Registrar uncovered - I can do some digging and get more background.

Or Royce may know - if he chimes in again.

Nah, it's ok. I just got excited to think there were more of them still out there.

I'm married 33 years. I've learned to live with disappointment.

[propayne]

Got you beat by two years 

Maybe Ford will resurrect Mercury and finish building these "original" 427 Cougars
