Ford Casting number as seen on the bottom side is D1OB-17713-AWA. Many people misinterpret it as D10B-17713-AWA, DI0B-17713-AW or Dl0B-17713-AWA. Perfect base with no cracks or bends. Visually it is impossible to tell this part from 1970 with a D0OB-17713-AW casting number on the bottom. The Pastel Blue base is from a 1970 and the Red base from a 1971. Even when placed side by side it is hard to tell the difference. Do you have questions about installing a passenger side mirror or using...

Also used on various other Mercury products like the Comet, Cyclone, and Marquis prior to 1973. This will not fit on the fender extension of the 1967- 1968 Cougar.

Used Grade "A" center grille emblem for the 71 - 72 Standard Cougar. Most likely will show some fading, no pits. Ford part number D1WY-8A223-A

This is an exact replacement for a 1970 remote sport mirror. Nearly indistinguishable from a 1968. Obviously a larger ball and longer than found on 1969, 1971-73 remote mirrors. This threaded replacement wand will require you to cut 8/32" fine threads in your original controller. Your OEM mirror controller is made of a very soft metal so one can often install these as "self tapping".1967 and 1968 are different, see comparison picture. The 1968 version was rounded off due to new safety...

Inside door handle release mechanism for the driver side on base model standard 1972-73 Cougar and Mustang. This latch mechanism went through a couple of revisions by the end of 1973. Ford calls this part a 'control and link assembly', this particular one only works with the base door handles as shown in the photo. The Ford MPC describes those door handles as fitting the door panels with detachable armrests, instead of the molded armrests on the door panels, as found on the XR7 and Decor...

Same as the emblem used on the trunk lid of the 1967 -1968 Cougar.

This was an adhesive emblem and has long since fallen off most cars or was removed when the car was painted. We often times have driver quality emblems available, but be aware, they will have some pitting issues.Our reproduction 67-68 pillar emblem is a good substitute.Original Ford part number D1WY-6542532-A.

This is one of the smallest "Cougar" emblems ever put on a Mercury Cougar. Only the 70-73 two spoke cat and xr7-G shift handle Cougar was smaller. It is also the most delicate! Very unusual to find the tail and all limbs intact on this fragile little kitty. Silver spray paint will make this cat look new again, they did not have a chrome finish from the factory. Now that we have reproduced this emblem there is little incentive to purchase this over-priced used emblem.

Found on the C pillars of a 1971 - 1973 Mercury Cougar XR7 Coupe. We rarely get good used examples of these emblems as they are always badly faded. These mount on the lower part of the roof behind the quarter windows. This part of the roof is also known as the 'C' pillar.

Pretty safe to say this item will never be reproduced. We often have used in stock but they are always faded.Ford part number D1WY-8A223-A

Rare Cougar only GT emblems. The Mustang GT emblems had different stud locations. These were used on 1968 Mercury Cougar GT models.  This emblem shares the exact same pin locations with the 1968 6.5Litre emblem, so the factory could punch holes and installed the tubular nuts in the fenders of all S and X code Cougars, allowing either emblem to be installed. The 1967 GT emblems have an entirely different stud placement from these 1968 only badges. Letter "G" is Ford part...

This little emblem was used only on the two spoke steering wheels from 1969 - 1973. We can pretty much guarantee one if not both of the two mounting studs will be broken but because of the way it fits into the recess of the steering wheel pad, gluing it into place is not a problem. We rarely have an emblem this nice in stock for more than a few weeks of any one year as the tail was prone to breaking off as well as the "cats" other limbs. We do not list these hard to find parts here to...

This little emblem was used only on the two spoke steering wheels from 1969 - 1973. We can pretty much guarantee one if not both of the two mounting studs will be broken but because of the way it fits into the recess of the steering wheel pad, gluing it into place is not a problem. The tail will always be broken and probably at least one leg is missing on this grade B part. While not an exact fit our 3 spoke wheel emblem cat will fit on this black background.

Stainless steel throttle pedal surround trim. Self attaching to part number D1ZZ-9735-B. This used part may have some wear, but will not have broken tabs. Fine steel wool really shines these up. It appears that this trim may not have been used all the way through 1973. Ford probably eliminated it as a cost saving measure.

Used 1970-72 black AUTOLITE marked oil fill cap with black plastic elbow. Several variations noted from our collection, AUTOLITE and MOTORCRAFT versions. Will need detailing or fresh black paint applied. Would also suggest replacing the rubber grommet. These 50 year old rubber grommets are rock hard and likely leak air. Gasket to valve cover will also need replacement. Even though this cap has a 1971 parts number, we see these on the 1970 351C engines quite often. Replaces Ford part...

Complete, solid tilt column with no missing or cracked parts. Easy to install and is as comfortable of an upgrade as you maybe imagining it to be. Although they may look much alike, each year 1970-73 is unique. In my opinion this upgrade enhances your cars value in direct proportion to its cost and will not cost you points in judged shows as it was a commonly installed dealer option.
