Up for grabs is something special for the serious collector of everything Cougar. This is an official press release document with attached 8x10 glossy photo of Dan Gurney inspecting the XR7 Dan Gurney Special. These were prepared by the Lincoln Mercury Public Relations Department for immediate release to newspapers in order to spread the word about new and exciting announcements. This particular release features a glossy black and white photo of Mr. Gurney himself inspecting the inside of the new XR7 which, according to this release, had a distinct European flair featuring burled grand touring instrumentation.
