thanks for the complements. i still need to fix some things like the headliner and a light problem. and i want to get the outside rubber trim all one color again. i have to many project trucks to start another restoration so i might try and sell the cougar after winter so i can pay off my truck.


i took some interior pics

Hey from the picture in your avatar, is your girl a ventriloquist?

Incredible car and price.  Congrats

Ouch. That's seriously hot.

Welcome to the board! Could you do me a huge favor (whenever) and get the paint code from the driver's door jamb tag? The code should be printed ABOVE the 'Paint Code' letters. I'm just trying to confirm something. Thanks!
