The numbers listed on this page are for the 1970 Ford King Cobra and Mercury Cyclone Spoiler Prototypes. These cars were never introduced into production by the factories due to Ford Motor Company’s withdrawal from Racing after the 1969 NASCAR Season.

Note by editor: It should be noted that there has been controversy over the documentation and authenticity of this car. It is believed by some that the Mercury King Cobra/Spoiler II never got past the clay mock up. Potential buyers should do their homework on any “special built” car to ensure its correctness and authenticity.
