Body:
Absolutely I recall and acknowledge the Cougar Eliminator. Do you
know Randy Marble? He heads to group devoted to them !

> Your tale of the 'revenge of the Cherokee' touched a part of my
past as well. Two of my friends had just received word that they
had been drafted to play professional football. So we decided to go
out for a few drinks to celebrate. One of our friends owned
the 'trendiest' nightclub in town and we were honored to be able to
park in the private lot reserved for the bar. At the time I was
driving a factory fresh 1970 Cougar Eliminator - and since I know you
are an old Ford / Mercury fan I suspect you can appreciate the
uniqueness of that vehicle at the time. Anyhow, we pulled into a
spot and before we could open the doors to get out a lovely fresh Z28
snorted into the parking spot next to us and flew open their doors.
Indeed they hit the body of the Eliminator. So the three of us got
out of the Eliminator ( with Paul standing at 6' 5' and Lyndon
standing at 6' 6' - and me at a weenie 6' 2" ). Unfortunately the
occupants of the white Z28 were all girls - girls with a filthy mouth
and a poor attitude. They let loose a verbal barrage that would
have left a sailor blushing. They then laughed and ran to the
nightclub. Well... suffice to say that their Z28 was demolished
as it sat there. We kicked out the tail lights, the mirrors,
antenna, headlights, and inflicted the full brunt of damage that our
size could impact on just about every body part of that Z28. We
then hopped back into the Eliminator and drove off to a strip joint
that another of our friends owned. So I can appreciate your moment
of 'parking lot rage' - as I have been there myself in my younger
days. The part that always brings a smile to my face - even these
many years later, is trying to imagine the look of those beeotches
when they finally left the bar and saw the tornado of damage that had
been inflicted on their Z28. I would love to have seen how their
insurance claims adjuster worked out the repair bill on that one ;)
