CLASSIC MERCURY REPAIR

The Industry’s Repair and Restoration Experts for 1967-1973 Mercury Cougars

The name KTL Restorations is nearly synonymous with Mercury Cougar restoration. No one has a greater connection or passion for these vehicles than our team. It all started with our founder, Tom Lawrance, who loved Cougars and spending his time and money restoring them to their full glory. He saved his money while stationed in Vietnam to buy a 1968 Cougar with a 6.5-liter engine and 4-speed transmission. That same passion translated to his son, Kurt Lawrance, who spent his summers as a student working in the family garage on his dad’s next Cougar, a Yellow 1970 Eliminator with a 428 engine. When it needed work, Kurt sought out solutions. Along the way, he learned everything about mechanical repairs, electrical diagnostics, auto paint and body, and more. The duo’s passion for at-home restorations grew into a reputation for quality accomplishments. Soon, they were the leading resource for anyone who wanted to see their cat brought back to life.

THE COUGAR SPECIALIST

We focus on returning cars to their original factory showroom condition, which involves careful preservation and restoration. Our attention to detail has won us great respect in the Cougar community. Whether you’re scrolling the CCOA’s database, flipping through Legendary Cougar Magazine, or viewing the world’s best muscle cars, chances are you’ll see the renowned work of KTL Restorations. In 2019, our restoration of the infamous “Lethal Cat,” a 1970 Mercury Cougar Eliminator, who went on to win Muscle Car of the Year!
