🇺🇲 Let's dive into the captivating history and features of the 1967 Mercury Cougar—a true icon of American automotive design and performance, the unleashed Spirit of American Muscle Cars.
🌟 The Mercury Cougar made its debut in 1967 as a striking entry into the competitive pony car segment. Positioned as a luxurious and sophisticated counterpart to the Ford Mustang, the Cougar embodied a blend of style, power, and refinement.
🛞 The Cougar's sleek lines and aggressive stance turned heads on the streets. With hidden headlights, a pronounced grille, and sequential turn signals, it exuded a sense of timeless elegance. The 1967 model year offered several variants, including the base, XR-7, and GT models, catering to a range of preferences from luxury to high performance.
⚙️ Under the hood, the Cougar roared with a range of potent engine options. From the standard 289 cubic inch V8 to the fearsome 390 cubic inch V8, enthusiasts had choices that delivered exhilarating performance.
🏁 The Cougar quickly found success on the racetrack, competing in various motorsport events. Notably, it served as the official pace car for the Indianapolis 500 in 1967, solidifying its status as a performance-oriented vehicle.

After 14 years of tireless work and community support, Detroit is celebrating a major victory! The city’s first Black-led and community-owned grocery store, the Detroit People’s Food Co-op (DPFC), is opening its doors on May 1st, 2024. This marks a historic moment in Detroit’s fight for food justice and economic empowerment.
“This is the result of a diverse community coming together to create a solution for everyone in Detroit,” said Lanay Gilbert-Williams, president of the DPFC board. “There’s no other business in the city with over 2,500 owners from across the city and state.”
More Than Just a Grocery Store
The DPFC is more than just a place to buy groceries. It’s a beacon of hope and a symbol of Detroit’s resilience. Built on cooperative principles, the store offers affordable, locally sourced, and culturally relevant food options to residents. It also aims to stimulate economic growth within the North End neighborhood and beyond.
The DPFC is located inside the Detroit Food Commons, which will officially open its doors on May 18th. This new center is a testament to the collective power of community and taking control of the food system. Anyone 21 or older living in Michigan can become a member-owner, although membership isn’t required to shop.
Fresh, Local, and Inclusive
Situated in Detroit’s North End, the DPFC offers a wide selection of products, including fresh produce sourced directly from local farmers whenever possible.
“We’re excited to welcome our community into a welcoming and inclusive environment centered on fresh, locally grown produce from Detroit’s own farmers,” said Akil Talley, DPFC’s general manager. “We’re confident we have the best prepared foods department in Michigan, and we can’t wait to open our doors!”
A Hub for Education and Empowerment
The second floor of the Detroit Food Commons, managed by the Detroit Black Community Food Sovereignty Network, will serve as a center for educational workshops, community events, and health and wellness initiatives. It will also feature four commercial kitchens and a rentable hall.
The DPFC is part of a larger movement for Black food sovereignty and economic empowerment in Detroit. They partner with local businesses, urban farms, and community organizations to build a more resilient and sustainable food system that benefits everyone in the city.
Join the Celebration!
“On opening day, I want everyone in Detroit to walk through our doors and feel like this is their store,” said Talley.
The DPFC opens for business on May 1st, 2024, at 11:00 AM. Regular hours are 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM daily.
The grand opening celebration and ribbon cutting for the Detroit Food Commons will be held on Saturday, May 18th, 2024, starting at 11:00 AM. The entire community is invited to celebrate this new era for Black food sovereignty in Detroit
