1969 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler II - These special 'showroom race cars' were a more aerodynamic version of the Mercury Cyclone, only built and sold to the public to homologate the design for racing purposes - The Cyclone Spoiler II (and its sister car, the Ford Torino Talladega) competed against the Plymouth Superbird and Dodge Daytona 'wing cars' at Nascar tracks nationwide during a period known as the Aero Wars - VERY RARE, one of only 503 produced (Nascar required just 500 examples be sold to the public in order to be legal for racing) - Of the 503, only 285 were Cale Yarborough Editions - Cale Yarborough won the 1968 Daytona 500 driving for the legendary Wood Brothers - These cars featured over 50 parts marked 'X' for Experimental from the factory and were all hand built - Flush-mounted grille and headlights, tucked bumper and other bodywork changes which resulted in the car being 6 inches longer than a conventional Cyclone - Mercury reshaped and rolled the rocker panels which allowed their race cars to run an inch closer to the ground while staying within the rules, enhancing their top speed - This car underwent a 5 year comprehensive restoration - Beautiful Wimbledon White paint with red striping and Cale Yarborough graphics mimicking his famous #21 Wood Brothers race car - Matching dark red bench seat interior - Very nice trunk with original spare - Styled steel wheels with correct Goodyear Polyglas reproduction tires - 351 Windsor engine that has been bored to Nascar specs of 358 cubic inches - Rebuilt with Holman Moody internals - FMX automatic transmission (there were no manual-equipped Cyclone Spoiler IIs) - High performance 3.25 rear axle - Power brakes & power steering - HIGHLY DOCUMENTED car - Produced on March 12, 1969 and sold new at Schneider Lincoln-Mercury in St. Paul, MN - Original window sticker, invoice & Ownercard - Original owner's manual & special Cyclone II supplement - Original dealer trunk lid emblem - Framed Elite Marti Report
