Welcome. looks like a nice cougar.

Hello and welcome!
Welcome
Hello :)
Welcome :-)
Good looking start. Welcome to the board.
More welcomes then I expected haha :P :) thank you so much everyone, yah she needs paint that's for sure down the road but atm most important is getting the passenger seat belt going and my windshield wipers wont stop (maybe motor not sure.) hoping maybe I could get some advice , she purrs nicely the 5.0 is at 170k but still turns on everytime first twist.
Welcome Aboard :) nice base to start with.
good luck with your new project! Lots of good people and tech to be found here.
Haha thank, yah she will be a fun project already love it lol :-P
just an update new rebuilt AOD tranny with 2200 stall converter heater core and wipers fixed so far so good :)
My last 302 cougar rusted to pieces before the drivetrain had any issues. Treat 'em right and they will last 'ya.
so far so good knock on wood just had a flowmaster 40 series installed kept it single but sounds little meaner :) nothing crazy but enough to know its there lolll now question is switching rear ends or not lol :p
i seen this cougar on kijiji and thought about grabbing it, but never went and looked at it. bought my '88 5.0L bird instead and swapped a a 5.0L HO/5 speed and supercharger into mine.
looks decent wouldnt mind checking it out in person sometime. if you want to buy a 4" cowl hood or stock turbo coupe hood, with the 2 scoops, let me know LOL check out my post in the body section or on kijiji for pics of the hood.
it had a huge ass ricer wing on it in the ad, didnt it?
Welcome
