1968 Mercury Cyclone

I am guessing that this has either the 302 cid, 390 cid or 351 cid engine. It may have the 427 or 428, who knows? An often overlooked muscle car, the Cyclone with the 390hp 427 was actually the fastest production car of 1968, setting a world record speed of 189.22 mph (304.5 kph) at Daytona. This is the only '68 Cyclone that I have ever seen in the flesh, its cousin, the Ford Torino, was much more common.
