Johnny Lightning Approx 1:64 Scale Diecast ~ 2006 Muscle Cars Series Release 14, #4
1969 Mercury Cougar XR7 in Factory "Red" with Black Vinyl Top
Opening Hood w/351-cid V8 ~ Uniroyal Tiger Paw Treaded Rubber Tires on 5-Spoke Chrome Wheels

Up for auction is a loose Johnny Lightning approx 1:64 scale 1969 Mercury Cougar XR7 in Red (1969 Mercury Factory Paint Code T) with a Black vinyl roof.

Although I hope it is difficult to tell from the realistic photos in this listing, this diecast is only approximately 2-3/4" long, so many of the photos are larger than actual size. For those who are interested in true scale modeling, I cannot verify whether or not this diecast is true 1:64 scale because most Johnny Lightning castings tend to be smaller than true 1:64 scale and neither the chassis nor the original packaging are marked with a scale specification as is done by other brands such as Matchbox and GreenLight. The man in overalls figure in the photos is taller than 6 feet in scale dimensions and he appears in all of my photos for my customers to make a relative scale comparison to other diecasts I have up for auction.

This 1969 Mercury Cougar XR7 diecast replica features the following details:

  • an opening hood with flat black engine bay and Ford Blue 351-cid V8 motor
  • silver sloping side trim strips
  • silver "Cougar" script logos on the rear fenders and on the front fender above the driver side headlight
  • silver & black Mercury herald logo in the center of the taillight strip
  • silver "XR7" badge on the trunk lip
  • silver circular Mercury Cougar XR7 badge on the C-pillars
  • silver window frames, vinyl top trim, rocker panel strips, wheel well trim, grille & taillight surrounds, and bumpers
  • silver and gray horizontally slatted grille (with closed flip-up headlights) and flat red vertical badge in the center bulge
  • flat white fog lights under the front bumper, marker lights on the front fenders, and marker lights on either side of the taillight strip
  • flat red marker lights on the rear fenders
  • silver & flat red rear taillight strip
  • Charcoal Black interior with clear windows
  • metal chassis with drivetrain and dual exhaust system details
  • "Real Wheels" white-letter "Uniroyal Tiger Paw F70-15" treaded rubber tires on 5-spoke chrome wheels
The diecast is in mint condition, and was only recently removed from its original packaging by an adult collector and stored in a resealable plastic bag when not in a display case. In case I have missed any imperfections, peruse the many detailed photos in this listing, many larger than actual size, to judge the condition of the diecast for yourself. Please note that the auction is only for the diecast - the background building and figures are not included.

For more information and history about the 1st Generation Mercury Cougar see the MuscleCarClub.com Mercury Cougar History 1967-1973 page and TheClassicCougarNetwork.com's Cougar History page. Also have a look at these photos of a 1969 Cougar XR7 Convertible in White with a charcoal Black top and interior sold by Kumbera Motors and John Perko's 1969 Cougar XR7 in Maroon with Black vinyl top and Dark Red interior from CarDomain.com (that includes a closeup of the C-pillar circular XR7 badge). Compare the photos of the actual car to those of the diecast below to get a feel for how much detail Johnny Lightning put in to this diecast replica.

I am slowly but surely liquidating my 1:64 scale diecast collection including 50's, 60's, and 70's Johnny Lightning classics & muscle cars as well as other brands that feature realistic details, so check back often for more great deals on loose 1:64 diecasts starting at < $1.00!!

Shipping & Payment Details (please do not bid if you do not agree to these conditions):

  • Because of eBay's new rules for only allowing electronic payments, the only form of payment I can now accept is PayPal. But, customers who have bought items from me in the past and have mailed a non-electronic payment may continue to pay by that method - this is the only exception to eBay's new electronic payment rule.
  • All of my 1:64 diecasts are shipped in a resealable plastic bag, wrapped by bubble-wrap, completely surrounded by styrofoam chips in a new 6" x 4" x 4" cardboard box (or larger if needed for combined auction wins). Please check my feedback for customer testimonials about how well my items are packed for shipping.
  • USA bidders: agree to pay $4.50 for shipping anywhere within the USA.
  • Canada bidders: agree to pay for shipping via USPS First Class Mail International for $5.03 (that does NOT provide a tracking number and an estimated delivery time is NOT provided by the USPS) or via USPS Priority Mail International for $20.00 (with an estimated delivery time of 6 to 10 days and provides a tracking number).
  • Non-USA/Non-Canada bidders: shipping to anywhere other than the USA or Canada is ONLY available via USPS Priority Mail International. I'm sorry, but I no longer offer the cheaper USPS 1st Class Mail International shipping option because the 1st Class Mail service does not offer a tracking number and I have been burned by international customers claiming they never received their items after I shipped them - without a tracking number I have no proof that the item was received and therefore PayPal forces me to issue a full refund. Please use the shipping rate calculator for an exact quote.
    • Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
    • Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.
    • I will NOT mark the item as a gift nor will I provide a false declared value, so please do not ask me to do so.
  • Payment must be received within 10 days of auction end or else an Unpaid Item Dispute will be filed with eBay so that I can start the process of receiving a refund for my auction closing fees (I only have a limited time to make the refund request).
  • The combined shipping policy of only $1.00 more for each additional 1:64 diecast shipped in the same package ONLY applies to auction items won on the same Sunday and/or eBay 2nd Chance Offer made the same day or the following Monday.

Please see my other auctions ending this week for more loose, mint 1:64 diecast classics and save on combined shipping!
