Looks good.

I keep seeing these nice fox Cougars for sale and it makes me think I need one to complete the circle of FoMoCo Fox-body personal luxury coupes.

Well fortunately you probably have all of the time in the world. So save up and make it happen when the time is right :)

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.

amazing how people cant take pictures!!!!!!!!!!!
Emphasis added because....well just because it's needed. 

Craigslist could seriously also be known as "the place where people take py pictures of their junk and try to sell it to you."
I should submit that to them for a slogan.....

http://phoenix.craigslist.org/cph/cto/4326162761.html  That was his first ad. Pretty much....as bad BUT the one side pic is a little more telling.

The guy probably doesn't think anyone would be interested in that level of detail in a < $2000 car. Then again, some people asking big five figure numbers provide equally terrible representation. People just think whatever they have is worth every penny of their asking price, regardless of condition...
