January 2012 Ride of the Month: Zoli's '70 Eliminator 'Vert

And the winner is…

Zoli’s 1970 Convertible Eliminator Tribute!

The car that never was but should have been: The Eliminator Convertible!

The '70 Mercury Cougar convertible is one of the best looking convertibles ever built. When retracted the roof folds completely below the line of the rear deck giving the car a clean appearance. It is one of those cars you like to just sit and look at…

So why Mercury failed to build an Eliminator convertible is just incomprehensible. But fortunately that didn’t stop Zoli from picking up the ball and creating his beautiful convertible Eliminator tribute.

A very worthy car, congratulations Zoli!

Time to post up some story behind the ride. Well Done Z! :thumbup:

Congrats Zoli. Your car is such a beauty, and when I look at it as the ride of the month I think the blue color goes perfect to the header on this forum as well :slight_smile:

Well deserved. Zoli’s car is one of the best resto-mod musclecars in the hobby that maintains a modicum of factory sensibility and user friendliness. It’s a testament to his ability to imagine with style and uitility. A benchmark in our community, to be sure. :beerchug:

Congrats Zoli!!!

That sure is a purrty ride.

Congrats. Zoli ! Still looks great !

Well deserved.

Ha! Sweet photo. I really like Zoli’s vert and it appears my Cougar is trying to get up close and personal to his sporty blue topless beauty. :smiley:

Congratulations Zoli! no mistaking that car, it would stand out in any crowd.
