Car of the Week: 1967 Mercury Cyclone GT

[mongooz]

Scott Reeves has a scorching hot Cyclone. This one is also a multiple award winner.

This is what Scott had to say about his impressive Mercury.

"This is my 1967 Mercury Cyclone GT...it has won multiple awards. This 1967 Mercury Cyclone GT has won a 2nd place at the Ford Nationals, an AACA Junior, AACA Senior, AACA Grand National, AACA Grand National Senior awards, but also the coveted AACA James Melton Memorial Cup. My mom bought us one in 1966, and every time I see one (which is not often) it always made me think of her and smile."

Can you remove the "tree" stump on the steering column?

that's not a "tree stump", it the emergency flasher button on a tilt steering column.
here's a close up pic, even tho it's a mustang, they were the same column from '65 to '69

Gorgeous car. That body style still looks great today.

That is pretty hot.

If I were stray from MOPAR, it’d be for a Mercury or a Pontiac.
They just seemed to do a great job on the styling.
