1970 Mercury Other Cyclone
How about some American muscle that's big, old, nd rare? This 1970 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler tribute car has all the right features to grab attention on the outside and coddle you on the inside. And wait until we get to the engine!The Cyclone was Mercury's version of the Torino GT. That meant it shared some seriously large power, hile having its own unique styling and Mercury's lower production numbers. Competing with the likes of the Buick GS and Plymouth GTX, he Cyclone had to look the part, nd this is one mean muscle car. From the aggressive hood scoop and gunsight grille, o the semi-fastback profile with subtle fender flairs, t was built to intimidate. This car was restored less than four years ago to an exceptionally high standard. The bodywork is laser-straight, anel fit is outstanding, nd the paint has a brilliant orange glow that looks hot to the touch. True to the "Spoiler" name, his tribute has aggressive spoilers in the front and rear. It even has the package-correct striping and exposed headlights. This one was built so well it won the Best of Show award from the Ford Club meet at the 2011 Charlotte Auto Fair.Inside, t's all about Mercury's blend of luxury and performance. The black vinyl seats are a must for any good muscle car, ut these also have gray textured inserts that give it a much more upscale look and feel. The driver gets a Cyclone-specific three-spoke sports steering wheel. Plus, ou have a B&M Quicksilver shifter to rest your arm or even bang your way through the automatic gears when you really want to takeoff from a stoplight. But this is more than just a driver's coupe. This is a big car with the space and seatbelts to seat five other people. So all your passengers get to enjoy the comfort of cold-blowing air conditioning, nd modern tunes from the new AM/FM/CD player that was installed during restoration.A car this mean needs a monster motor, nd you won't be disappointed when you pop the hood. It's Ford's big-block 429 cubic-inch V8 engine that's famous for eating up everything on the streets. While the rest of the car has been restored a few years ago, his powerplant had its entire top end rebuilt just a few weeks ago. That's why everything looks so fresh and pristine in the engine bay, ncluding the valve covers, ubes, ires, delbrock chrome air cleaner, our-pass radiator, nd MSD Blaster coil. With all these upgrades, he dual exhaust has a heightened rumble that will scare lesser cars even at idle. Just in case that sound wasn't enough, his Mercury has no trouble getting its power to the ground thanks to Ford's stout C6 three-speed automatic transmission, inked to their nine-inch rear end. But there's more to this car's story. The rear end ratio is a highway-friendly 3.55. Combine that with the power steering, ower brakes (discs up front), nd modern BF Goodrich T/A Radial tires, nd this is the kind of muscle car you won't mind taking on road trips.Rare, eautiful, nd impressive, his Mercury Cyclone Spoiler packs an upscale punch that will make Ford fans smile everywhere it goes. These haven't lasted in our showroom in the past, nd we dont expect this one to either, all now!!
