I love the fact that it is getting bids so high, I know that it's perfect but Cougars normally do not sell this high.  Nice to see the value may be going up.

From the pictures, I'd bet he has $25+K in the resto...

He's added and changed some things... It has the high back '70 seats, the Ram Air setup was only available on the 428s. Not sure about the sunroof, I'm thinking it was available.

History lesson....

Thats a later model AM-FM('72 +), the '69 radios did not have Philco(were mfg by Bendix) on the dial. The '70-'71 AM-FM radios(again Bendix) actually had "Cougar" on the dial. The AM only radios were built by Philco starting '68..

Hey,
Since we're talking older Cougars on Ebay, did anybody see this one recently that didn't sell for $2500?

That is a nice car for the money.  The interior looked exceptional (what's a couple torn seat seams), the motor looks clean and supposedly runs fine, and the body didn't appear to have any rot.  I'd have bought that car in a second, if it wasn't for that darn ole' $$ thing, and the distance.  I'm a sucker for '69 Mustangs over the '70 models, but I think I like the '70 Cougars over the '69's.  Just my $0.02.
