1967 Cougar Super Cat – View of the tilt forward front end and the 427 SOHC
GREAT view of the work on the front end of the car plus the 427 SOHC ‘Cammer’.
The intake seen here on the 427 was later used on the ’69 Boss 429 Mustang…with a bit of work.

Who’s the cool (Super) Cat?
Pic from a magazine article. Good stuff…
The picture shows the 1967 427 SOHC powered Mercury Cougar. The front end was a flip-forward deal that was, obviously, removable as well.
Return of the Super Cat
Been awhile since we’ve seen the SuperCat here.
This was pulled from a ’68 issue of Cars Magazine. This is meant to be for framing…and the purple-ish color is the original color of the border. Yikes.
The caption reads:
Wayne Gapp (427 OHC Cougar) pulls a gigonda holeshot on a 427 OHC Fairlane to class at CARS Mag meet.

The folks over at Vintage Nitro published a little piece on the A/FX Comet at Detroit Dragway.
Check it out here.
Cool pic showing the car…

This is WG’s 1967 Cougar at Milan running a 427 Cammer.
1967 427 SOHC Cougar – first run
Here’s a pic of the Cougar from early ’68. Looks like the mechanicals are done and they are shaking the vehicle down.
Weather looks cold!
1967 Cougar – 427 SOHC
This is slowly turning into one of my favorite vehicles.
I’ve also liked the body style of these late 60’s Cougars, add in a 427 SOHC engine and pretty paint job?
What’s not to like?
The 427 Cammer powered SuperCat Cougar
Of all the vehicles that my Dad had the SuperCat Cougar is right near the top of my favorite list.
Why? Well…it’s a Cougar. That body style was pretty unique for the time period.
See below. This image is probably from one of the ‘Autorama’ shows that is held at Cobo every year.
The vehicle was powered by a Ford 427 Cammer. Now, I happen to have a soft spot for the Cammer engine for a variety of reasons.
