Always a Cougar fan February 05, 2010, 02:29:19 PM My grandmother had a 1974 Mercury Cougar XR7 with a 400 2bbl when I was growing up. Thats the car that started my love affair with cars and the Cougar. Ive had many different years but mostly I had the Fox bodies. My first and my fav was a 1987 Cougar LS. V6 I had it for 7 years and put a V8 in it but had to sell it. The kid that bought it wrecked her :( Then another 87 LS, an 86 Xr7 turbo, a 78 XR7, a 76 XR7, an 88 Tbird Sport, 2 1985 Tbird V6s, and an LTD 6and my SC Xr7 5 speed 89 and my 96, V6 Mn12). I found a picture of some of em. More as I locate em. This is my latest. A 1976 Cougar XR7. Her name is Elsa. Had 14,900 miles on it when I bought it last year off ebay. Re did all the suspension and doing an Edelbrock top end to the 351 for 400hp +:burnout: Quote Selected
