Not sure. I've never studied Cougars. There are some Mercurys that I like.
Waitin' for the day I get my first '70 Shelby convertible!

are the seats wrong in the gte ? phred

According to it's Marti that GT-E came with Light Nugget Gold Standard Bucket Seats with headrests (it's not an XR-7).

Looks like those are the standard style Cougar buckets that get the headrests but the headrests are missing.

Oddly enough, when Ford used the color on the 2004 Mach 1, they gave it the Mercury name - Competition Orange.

And, BTW, Ford grabber Orange is "Competition Gold" in Mercury-speak.

Has anyone ever seen a 69/70 shelby convertible in grabber green with a white interior?  Been to many conventions and never saw one.  I would love to see one someday.

Mine is the more common red, I believe.

Grabber Green is one of my favorite colors for the Shelbys. Why would Mercury call an orange color Gold? Hmm . . .
