🚨 FIRST TO KNOW – 1969-70 Mercury Cougar Owners 🚨

Big news in the Cougar world… and you’re hearing it here first.

Dynacorn is releasing the Back-Up / Reverse Light Bezel for the 1969–1970 Mercury Cougar — and we just completed the FIRST test fit.

That’s right. We had it in our hands, on the car, and through full fitment review before public release. 🎯

If you own a ‘69 or ‘70 Cougar, you already know:
✔️ Originals are hard to find
✔️ Good ones are expensive
✔️ Pitted cores are common
✔️ Correct fitment matters

We worked directly through the test phase to ensure proper alignment and factory-style appearance — because details matter when you're restoring one of these cars the right way.

🎥 Listen to Kurt break down the details in the video attached. He’ll walk you through what to expect.

📬 Want First Access to Ordering Info?

These will move quickly once released.
To get on our information & ordering email list:
📧 Email: [email protected]
📞 Call: 434-685-7353 and ask for Jesse

We’ll notify you as soon as ordering opens and provide pricing + availability details.

At KTL, we don’t just restore Cougars — we advocate for parts availability that keeps these cars alive and correct. 🐆

Happy New Year 🎆 🎊 !!!!

Every new year brings a moment to pause…
and a moment to turn the page.

2025 marked a milestone for KTL with the opening of the body shop we had envisioned for years!

As we step into the next chapter, the momentum continues. Growth doesn’t always announce itself. Sometimes it’s found in the details, in new perspectives, and in ideas that push beyond what’s familiar or comfortable.

Some dreams stay firmly on the road. 🚘
Others begin to take flight. ✈️

We’re deeply grateful for our incredible team and for the clients — past, present, and future — who trust us to build their dreams. The year ahead holds new opportunities, higher horizons, and more in motion than meets the eye. 👀

🎄❤️ A KTL Christmas ❤️🎄

Our hearts are full after being able to bless a truly deserving family with a KTL Christmas this holiday season. Seeing the smiles, joy, and pure magic shared between a loving mother and her three children is something we will carry with us forever.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who helped make this moment possible — from those who donated, supported, and shared kind words, to every person who played a part in creating a Christmas filled with love and hope.

A very special thank you to Santa Claus for making a memorable appearance and delivering presents straight from the North Pole. 🎅🎁

This season reminded us of the true reason for Christmas — love, generosity, faith, and caring for one another. From our KTL family to yours, thank you for helping us create something truly magical. ❤️✨
