This is my cougar. I did all the work myself and have had it since 1992! Just got it out for the spring. Hope you like it. It's for sale too PM if you are interested.
I had said I would post some pics. after I cleaned it up abit more so here they are sorry they aren't the best but I have to buy a new camera this is my 2.0megapix razr2! In the pics. you may notice I removed the outdated chrome wheelip I had put on in 1998 and I set a standard 5 gallon bucket near it and a bud bottle under the rear bumper for those that wonder how low it is. The bottle won't slide under the bumper it's about .5 inches too tall. FYI-the car is for sale as well. It really wouldn't take more than a day,new shocks and struts to put it back to stock. Oh and springs if you wanted stock ride height.
I have to say I have never had SPAM. Someone told me once sliced about a half inch thick then fried put on toast with lettuce and mayo is really good though? If I ever get some days off I hope to get the car out finally this year. Hey if anyone has a 1999-2000 contour SVT for sale or trade that might kick me into a higher gear to get it out?
I am looking for an early 1990's T-bird SC or Cougar Xr-7 with manual trans. I do know this is "mostly" a fox body site Which I have one of those too but thought I'd ask. Oh yeah must be in good shape no or minimal rust and other issues. I would fly someplace and drive back only resonable distances I live in the center of lower Michigan. Thanks
Nice ride, as was stated... not into hydros.. We had a guy in town with them on a sonoma... thought he was cool, til everybody called him a British cigarette all the time, and the cops harassed the out of him.
A British cigarette cause he had hydros??? I have only been pulled over once but I don't really hit the switches too much on the roads or in town near cops anyways.
Thanks Carpimp--and I'll remember that! After painting the whole car black metallic I used house of Kolor marbalizer. It is super thin and all metallic pretty much. You have to do one panel at a time cause it dries so fast. You spray it on then hurry up and use something to make a pattern I used saran-wrap but you can use tons of stuff. The next thing is pull it off and some comes off showing dark areas which is the black showing through from underneath. If you take too long and I am talking more than 15-20 seconds most of the color or pattern will come off on the saran-wrap then you start over. BTW..if anyone tries this there is an extra step after applying the marbalizer you must use I think it is Sg-100 from house of kolor for the clearcoat to stick.
