California Car Culture Picture of the Day

Spotted on the Road; 1970 Cougar, Morro Bay

We heard it before we saw it -- the deep throated rumble of a powerful V8 engine -- as we turned to see the orange muscle car approach.

It's a beautifully preserved and classic 1970 2-door Cougar, perhaps best known for its "flip" headlamps. Most had a 351 hp V8 engine, and I assume this did as well.

Turns out the car was for sale. Asking price for it was a reasonable $15,000. Tempting, don't you think? I think PHeymont would look good driving it.
