1968

UPDATE 11-19-20: We still do not have the shaft seal dialed in but we are offering this kit with a proven substitute seal until further notice. This kit will recondition most FoMoCo headlamp actuators built from 1967 into the 70's on most any Thunderbird, Torino, Lincoln, Cyclone or Marquis. The kit will service two actuators even though many cars only come with one center mounted unit. If your actuator holds vacuum on the bottom port but does not hold vacuum (or pressure) on the top port then...

This spring puts tension on the headlight adjusting ring so when you turn the screw on the adjusters the ring remains tight and will move as adjusted. Sold individually, four required per car. These small springs about 0.360" diameter, were used in 1967-68, a larger spring was used in 1969 through 1973, which will fit the early Cougar. Ford number C6SZ-13031-A.

Quality "STANDARD" brand reproduction switch for your vacuum actuated hideaway headlights. This switch fits multiple years and makes which means multiple dash configurations. You will need to "break off" your unique extension and attach it to this unit. The extension (spacer) can be removed easily by placing your old switch in a vise and using a wedge shaped chisel to break the tiny spot welds. When reattaching, most any glue such as Gorilla glue, JB weld or even silicone will work as you are...

This bracket attaches the vacuum storage tank for your headlights to the core support inside the driver fender. It differs from the 1967 bracket in that an oval hole was put in it to allow the socket and pigtail assembly for the side marker light to pass through the bracket located closest to the fender. 1969 uses the exact same bracket except for a slightly different clip design. Sold individually, two required per car. Cougar part number C8WY-13B008-A.

These tension springs are located on either side of your hidden headlamp eyelids. Our springs are made from the exotic alloy "Inconel". Inconel springs have approximately ten times the memory of the originals which were made from the much more common and inexpensive "piano wire". These springs have been engineered to have the exact same elasticity as the originals but will last decades longer than the originals which from our experience with NOS, usually lose their memory within a year and...

This is a very nice reproduction that we have all needed for many years! You might want to buy a new Cougar walking cat emblem if you replace this background decal as it requires breaking the studs off your old emblem to get it off. Do you want to replace those worn out actuators yourself or are you looking for some great information on aligning the grille in your Cat? The videos below are your ticket! ...

Assembly required This high quality corral fits perfectly and the chrome plating is well beyond what Ford originally did. The mounting studs are placed in the exact position as original. We have offered the walking cat and black background for sometime now but the challenge has been getting your used corral (or rectangle frame) remounted after you break off the studs to remove the assembly. Replacing this emblem assembly is probably (for the money) the best way to improve the looks of the...

Reproduction headlamp adjusting nut and screw. Slightly longer screw than stock, small amount of added length does not interfere with anything in or behind the grille. The nut is an exact copy of what is found on the 1969-70 adjustment.

This option requires you to PRE-PAY a $40 core charge. If we do not receive your core within 30 days of the original purchase, your core charge will be an in-store credit only. If your core is full of rust and debris (sounds like a tambourine) then it most likely is not a core we can give credit on. ALL GRADE B ACTUATORS COME WITH A 60 DAY WARRANTY. You can find the seal rebuild kit here. Used grade "B" headlight door actuator for your Mercury Cougar. Every once in a while (not often) we will...

NOS grille headlight eyelid door vacuum actuator for the Mercury Cougar. No exchange needed for NOS. *NOTE* While original FoMoCo boxes are fun and all, we do not recommend you invest in these units as shown with the multiple crimps at the top. These later dated service replacement units shown here were made out of country and are inferior to what the OEM supplier made back in "the day". The rubber elasticity is not as good as the early units and the porosity of the metal makes them impossible...

As decades old Cougar lore goes... After Dan Gurney test drove the XR7-G for the first time he was asked what he thought about this new Cougar. His supposed reply was, "you can't hear the horn at high speeds." The car was later equipped with this third horn just for Mr. Gurney. Anyway, that is how the legend goes.  This icon means that we're looking to buy this part!WCCC is a buyer of used and NOS hard to find 67-73 Mercury Cougar parts.

This used original, color coded set of vacuum hoses is 100% complete and relatively pliable. It comes complete with decades of dirt and grime (patina) for no extra charge. If you want to remove the grime it will take some serious elbow grease but it can be done. The color coded stripes are quite resilient to cleaning as the ink used actually embedded itself into the rubber. Kit includes used check valve and fittings shown, but does not include headlight switch.
