Here is a Pastel Blue car just posted on Hemmings

https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/mercury/cougar/2296172.html

Also this yellow one. I believe it was the one Mainly Muscle Cars had a few years back.

https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/mercury/cougar/2294058.html

Thanks for the head’s up! The pastel blue is recorded already, but I did not have anything on it in my files until now. The comp yellow IS the same one from Mainly Muscle Cars that you are thinking of. It has been through a few owners since then. The current seller appears to be using pics from the previous listing / seller.

I still have issues with items in the description. You would think they could at least look at the Elite Marti statistics and get the correct number for CJ Eliminators >.<

Also at RK Motors…
