Uh-oh. You went and did it. Spelled Camaro with an "e." As a former owner of more Camaros than I can bring to mind at the moment, it's a cardinal sin. :)
rps...any car with 3 taillights or sections thereof are fair game for the Cougar/T-bird sequential lights. Sorta like fluorescents in the wheel wells, which dates back to the 50s. The Dodge Charger gang has really gone apeshit over stuff like that, though. I wunner when Appleton dummy spotlights will make a comeback. Moon discs seem to be as popular now as I've seen since the 60s.

When I was a teenager I had a friend with a 68 Cougar and it was pretty tricked out. He installed an electric fuel pump with a switch under the dashboard that only he knew so if someone tried to steal it they wouldn't get very far. The coolest thing about the Cougar was the sequential tail/break lights. Another friend was working on a 68 Camero at the same time and liked the Cougar lights so much he put a set on his Camero. He'd never get points for originality but the effect was cool.ZamboniOn Sat, May 8, 2010 at 7:54 PM, Ray Buck <rbuck@xxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:rbuck@xxxxxxxxxxxx>> wrote:I apologize to those who are on multiple lists and getting this more than once, but it amuses me, so I'm gonna send it anyway. I shot two car shows today. Both were small, but for a change the weather was decent. Both shows were in the town I was mostlyraised in, Ogden, Ut. I haven't been there for quite a while. The smaller of the shows was held across the street from one ofthe high schools I attended (I did my junior year there, then dropped out when my mother and sisters and I moved to California.) Well, Weber High School is no more. It's a shopping center. Things change. Moving right along, and to the subject, at the other show, the larger one, there were a coupla 68 Mercury Cougars. Both ownedand shown by women. I think they might be making a statement. For those unfamiliar with the term, check here:http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cougar So. There's this nice yellow XR7 with its hood raised and a prominent sign right near the latch mechanism that read, "LOOK, BUT DON'T TOUCH." The sign's caps, not mine. Well, yanno, whenever there's a sign saying, don't do something, somebody's gotta do it, just on principles. So this guy did. I caught hishand just as he was in the process of flaunting the directive. Didn't take too long before he found out that actions haveconsequences. Big time. I'll just let the photos tell the story and you can draw your own conclusions. r-- Sent from my Dreadnought using that barely tolerable Thunderbird email program-- Michael Wells MCWells Photography mcwellsphoto@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:mcwellsphoto@xxxxxxxxx> 801-850-7279
