Car Exchange magazine had a nice article on how to use your local library's Guide to Periodical Literature. This would be beneficial in research, upholstery, general auto repair. (Car Exchange Vol.2, No.9, Iola, Wisc.)

The 67 Cougar convertible you saw it the last Cat belongs to Kevin Marti,of Phoenix Arizona. He will be filling us all in a little later on just how he did this conversion from a hardtop.

When sticking the club decal to the window, I found that it picked up finger prints very easy, and tended to leap out of my hands due to static. Be careful when getting it near the glass to position it square before it gets near the glass. Putting a slight curl in it will allow it to touch at only one point first. Then slowly work it from the center out. Pop any air bubles with a pin and press again. Use a sharp single edge razor blade to trim around the outside ring and then your fingerprints can be pealed off.

The 1967 Mercury Trans Am Team question must have been a tough one for some of you. No one who has written me has come near 100% yet. I'll let it run just a little longer. Some of you are getting the S.C.C.A. Trans Am series mixed up with NASCAR's Baby Grand races. Look in to those sportscar type magazines for some help. They usually have pictures of the series, as the Cougar team was the one most people were rooting for, and thus got a lot of coverage. Here's a little help. The Sept. 17,1967 Mission Bell 250 at Riverside Cal. was won by David Pearson driving the #15 Cougar of the Bud Moore team. Ed Leslie drove #98 to second, and Allen Moffat brought #41 in to 28th position. If you went down to your local library and nosed through their back issues of newspapers and magazines it'll tell you who drove, but not always their numbers. There were 11 races in 67. If you were lucky enough to get a copy of the print "Finish Line At Daytona" which was offered by Autolite showing two team Cougars, don't believe the numbers.
