Define “Hairy?”

Hairy–A car that is a potential performer; also, a difficult race course.

The newest addition to our–hopefully–increasing library of classic Cougar literature and manuals is the 1969 Mercury Salesmen’s Newsletter. It’s packed full of information about the 1969 Lincoln-Mercury “muscle cars,” including the Cougar “Boss” 302 Eliminator and the Cyclone.

There is some really intriguing information here. For example, there is the comparison chart featuring the Cougar “Boss” 302 Eliminator, the Plymouth ‘Cuda 340, the Camaro Z/28, and the Mustang “Boss” 302.

You can also find some real entertainment–the Performance Terminology. “Hairy” is only the beginning. So whether your ride is a sponge, a stone, a honker or a gook wagon, you’ll find something of interest here.
