General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / '86 Cougar - Soft Top
Quote from: 88turbo;391102
Car is worthless, you should give it to me... I mean so worthless that you should even pay the shipping to get it to me.... lol. Anyways if you find the right buyer you should be able to get a decent asking price as it is a cougar vert.
So... what is a decent asking price?
And thanks for the tips on the windows/top. I have been working on it slowly. This whole "graduating" thing is a pain.

General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / '86 Cougar - Soft Top
I've got an '86 Convertible Cougar. I'm going to be going off to college in three months, and it's not really worth it for me to have a car in the middle of a big city. I was wondering if there was any worth to my car, or what it might be?
I just replaced the alternator, starter, and heater core. For the most part it is in good running condition. Cosmetically, it needs some help. The top does not move automatically, nor does the rear windows.
Any info you guys can offer would be great, thanks!

It's the v6 engine. I'm pretty sure everything is original. It has a lot of work to do.
I purchased it back in August, from some guy in town. He said it was kind of rare. I didn't really know much about them, and I was just happy to be 16 with a convertible. :)
Now, however, I realized I need to put on a new top... The rear window motors need replaced, I'm currently fixing the driver side window (it came off track or something), the exhaust is totally disconnected from the engine (which results in exhaust coming out right next to the driver side window :) ), and I've already replaced the heater core. That's just what I have found so far...
On the upside, it has only 120,000 miles on it.

I just bought my first car, an '86 Cougar (Convertible).
I am trying to restore it a little bit, seeing some of the rides on here and coolcats.net gave me some inspiration.
The Trim Bezel behind the steering wheel, around the instrument panel, is cracked in many places. I am having a hard time finding a replacement part, although I haven't thoroughly hunted through junk yards. I was hoping to find the part new.
I was wondering if anybody on here might be able to point me to the right place to buy a new one? Or any other model cars that might have the same trim bezel.
Thanks for the help,
Kevin T
