'70 Cougar Eliminator drop top

A Cougar Eliminator with Aruba license plates, that is very random. You have no idea what you'll find at SEMA until you are there, looking around

If you've never heard of Aruba, it is no surprise. If the Beach Boys didn't mention it in their last hit song of the 80's, I bet no one would have ever heard of it.

Did you know it's a colony of the Netherlands? Bizarre. It had indigenous people as far bask as 4500 years ago

 

Well, I don't recall ever hearing of a 1970 XR7 Eliminator before... here's one that Colin Medd photographed going through his home town of Kaikoura, on the coast near Christchurch (thank you Mark D!)

How ever in 1970, no Eliminators were built with factory vinyl tops. So, it's probably a cougar with decals added on

It's been nearly twenty years since I've seen a Cougar Eliminator

I did not know that "Eliminator" was written on the wing
