1986 cougar "45k miles" $2800

http://www.ksl.com/index.php?sid=13301084&nid=917&car=2217222&page=0&make=Mercury&model=Cougar

I really, really like some parts about this car, but it seems kinda like it could be a hack job. Obviously never found the h.o. upgrade. Mmmm red brake drums.

I could go either way on it. If it was $1500 id still probably try to talk the guy down.

*edit*

I lied. I thought they guy just had a thing for red spray paint at first. I really can't see much wrong. I might have to go and call this guy.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
