The search is over ! I'm now a cougar owner!!

Heres my 1988 XR-7, some of you might recognize it. Its been in a dark, cold garage for 3 years.. More pics coming next week when I finish parting out the tbird.

Looks like I'm going to rebuild the 351w, and use alot of the parts from the bird to get this badboy running.

I plan on starting a new thread that will go from begining to end so stay tuned!

Check out my parts threads in the classifieds if anyone needs any tbird or 302 parts...

Looks like a fun project.  From those shots looks like the body is rust free.

I see potential... I've always [always] wanted a 351W in front of a TKO.  Can't wait to hear more!
