  • In this video from the 2024 Detroit Autorama I have the 2024 Great 8 winning 1968 Mercury Cougar Fastback built by JF Launier and company "Predator". The Fastback Ford Mustang was a huge hit back in the day and the Cougar was a hit for Mercury ...JF Launire wondered what combining the two would look like and at the 2024 Detroit Autorama He showed Us....Pretty cool, If I may say so myself!! It wasn't love at first sight...But after it started to soak in, I really started to dig it! This 1968 Mercury Cougar called Predator is covered in a custom mix green color with some gray stripes...The custom interior is something that was love at first sight..It's a color matched to the body, green leather, it's for sure custom, yet has ques that make it at home in a 1968 Mercury Cougar Fastback. Under the custom hood is a cleanly installed Jon Kaase Boss 529 hooked to a 5-speed manual transmission Obviously the underside of the Great Eight Winning 1968 Mercury Cougar Fastback "Predator" from the 2024 Detroit Autorama is just has impressive as the top of this car...Crazy cool for sure!! And all the latest technology!!...This one may have not won the Ridler Award....But it was a tight race for sure...The Great 8 winning 1968 Mercury Cougar Fastback "Predator" from the 2024 Detroit Autorama ....Check it out!!!
    Part of how ScottieDTV can cover all this cool is with donations from the fans...If You are able to help with a little gas money...Maybe a few bucks for a hotel....Please donate at PayPal.Me/ScottieDTV Thanks in advance and please keep liking and sharing the videos...That helps to!!

    Ford never offered the Fastback option in the Mercury Cougar, so they replaced the original hardtop with the Mustang Fastback top.

    A Super Master Piece . Awesome Workmanship. Only downside is the hole 🕳 in the Hood . Not my thing . Would have preferred the Beautifull lines on the Hood 2 Remain Intact.
    Other than that Simply a Masterclass . And the Color Choice is Perfect 😅
    A SBF HEMI HEADS would have worked . Available down in Georgia from Hammerhead Performance.
