1971 Mercury Cougar - Red Convertible Coupe

1971 was the year I was born, and interestingly, it was nearing the end of the amazing muscle car era.

Below are photos I snapped of an impressive bright red convertible coupe.

What a sharp deep red this color is.
The front headlights, grill and bumper.

The driver side.
A closer view of the dashboard, steering wheel and interior.

The tail lights always had an intimidating look to me that screamed "muscle car." I am curious however, about what the designers were thinking. If this car gets hit from behind, the tail lights will surely be damaged as well.
Sizzling wheels!
