Mercury Cyclone Spoiler
The 1970 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler represented Mercury's commitment to performance and NASCAR-inspired styling. Building on the success of the 1969 Spoiler II, the 1970 version featured a prominent rear wing, front chin spoiler, and special graphics. The top engine option was the 429 Super Cobra Jet with 375 horsepower, featuring a Drag Pack option with 4.30:1 gears and engine oil cooler. Special Dan Gurney and Cale Yarborough editions honored Mercury's NASCAR drivers. The Spoiler's aggressive styling and genuine performance credentials made it a standout in Mercury's lineup.
Verify authenticity of Super Cobra Jet engines and Drag Pack options. Check for rust in typical areas. Special editions command premium prices. Original documentation adds significant value.
The 1970 Cyclone Spoiler was the final year for the Spoiler nameplate. Production included regular Spoilers and special editions honoring NASCAR drivers. Most were equipped with automatic transmissions.
