This product is an NOS Part.
NOS items are OEM parts from Ford that have been sitting on shelves or in warehouses for years. These are often great examples of the orignal parts, but they may have scratches or other shelf wear.
However be aware that some NOS parts are "service replacement" parts. "Service replacement" parts are not exact replacements of the parts that were installed at the factory, but are what Ford considered as "good enough" and were used at Ford dealerships after the original supply of parts was exhausted.
We often leave NOS product listings on our website after they sell for reference purposes.
This ultra rare NOS center cap decal features a black background and a chrome walking cat and was used when the 10 spoke 15" aluminum Shelby wheels were ordered for your Mercury Cougar. The wheels were marketed through Shelby American in the Cougar catalog titled, "How To Sharpen Your Cats Claws". I was able to obtain the last of their inventory through a previous employee when they closed the doors in the mid 70's. They measure 1-13/16" in diameter and fit well into the 3 bar spinners used on Magnum 500 wheels, the Keystone Classic wheels, or any other center cap that has a clean smooth center surface. They still adhere well after all these years. Sold individually or as a set of four. Of course there is a limited quantity on this item, so give us a call before you order.
