Only 400 of these were made in this year and they were painted competion orange.

I disagree;
2,268 made in 1970
466 were Competition Orange.
212 of those were equipped with a 351C-4V engine and FMX automatic transmission.

Mike, why does the build sheet for the pastel blue on EBay say it came with a 429 when the auction says it has its original 428?

The first build sheet is for a Torino - see the one for the Pastel Blue car at the end of the pictures.

I saw that too. I wonder where the Torino is?

Cool video! I posted it on Facebook in the Eliminator group, as well as over on the MC.net forum.

Mike, refresh my memory: is 0F91Q530651 “numbers matching” / factory original engine?

Also, for others reading, Mike’s Eliminator was a Hemmings Blog find of the day car(s) back in Oct 2014: https://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2014/10/24/hemmings-finds-of-the-day-1970-mercury-cougar-eliminators/

Take your pick or buy them both, they are twins FYI
