Last year a new car site was founded by two former Jalopnik writers, Jason Torchinsky and David Tracy: the Autopian.

I was invited to have my Cougar showcased in the Autopian's 'Member Rides' feature recently and the article is now up:

Nice.. :smile:


I love the Cougar design in the side window ( i don't think i ever saw this somewhere else.. )

And this little buddy . I've seen this kind of things mostly on Road Runner ( keychains, plush toys, and about everything you can think of.. ) in car shows and it always hook a 2-mile wide smile on my face.. :grin:

Finally, the fact that it still looks this great for a nearly 50 yo survivor is just awesome . :smile:

Nice car !



Is that a cartoon character ? I thought perhaps a Lion King figurine, but it looks a bit off for that. Is it from the same era as the car ?

Nope, not a cartoon and not period-correct. Just a handmade cougar figurine keychain; I bought it from an artist who makes them. :smile:
