1968 Cougar Dual Quad 428 for SS?

[BRETV]

Hey Myron. In the summer of '86, I took my 68 Cougar GTE 427 to a Saturday nite bracket race in Orlando and in the 1st round I got this guy with a Cuda that said Locomotion on the door. He dialed way soft and fender raced me all the way to the stripe and kicked my butt. My 1st ever bracket race. What a lesson from one the best!!

Wow, been a while. Cool combo. (But mine was a Challenger.) What color was your car? I seem to recall that a red Mustang beat me several rounds into the original U.S. Class Nationals organized by Alex Denysenko. Was that you?

Good old days.

That's right, it was a Challenger, and yes that was a very rare Cougar 1 of 357 made. That was me in the red mustang. I owed you one. LOL
