For today's #NameThatCar challenge for #WeirdCarMastodon it is one for the lovers of #Americana, or at least of American cars of a certain age! As I think it's tough, you can have two images for this one, and possibly the weekend to think about it!
Please Boost to share and encourage others to have a guess. Please use a content wrapper for guesses, so they are hidden in the thread.
Good luck!

@DazzlingDamo The door pic makes me think of the early 70s era when the Ford Thunderbird became a four-door sedan. But those headlights don’t seem quite right – they give more of a Plymouth/Dodge impression to me…

@DazzlingDamo I’m still puzzled by this. The door pic says Ford Thunderbird to me, but the headlights don’t. More Plymouth or maybe Mercury. Did Mercury ever make a Cougar version of the suicide-door Thunderbird? If so, I don’t remember it.

@johnniesan that I could not tell you! I have a feeling this particular version of this long running nameplate may have not lasted very long before a face-lift.
