I dont care what you guys think, but that would be a tight car to own.

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.

built by Zimmer, not Tiffany.. built from an mn12 cougar.. only 2 of them were built from the cougar and then they switched to doing mustangs.

That's actually not that bad. I think the modifications look better with the mn12 design than the fox design.

well i'm sure if Zimmer got their hands on a fox they woulda made it with more style.. i th ink the biggest difference in what makes it better is that they kept the trunk and didn't replace it with a small box.

funny i just saw one today, and was like hmmm what car was that made out of, and asked my friend if she could drive up closer to it and pass it, nonetheless i look inside and recognize the interior and steering wheel! omg the work it must of taken to get the car like that, so much cutting and chopping, except for the rear 1/4 panel for the window i couldn't tell it was a cougar.

How much do those normally run for?

And hell yes i'd so drive one of those things!

it's a 99 Zimmer, not a Cougar, it was just built out of a cougar body. And I assume it's 1999 because that's when Zimmer took this Cougar, chopped it up and made it their own type of car, wasn't necessairly when the actual Cougar was built.

I was thinking the same thing. It doesn't look bad but it's kind of hoaky with the cut out for the fuel door.

Good God that Zimmer is like 37 feet long!  I would have it repainted black and have the interior re-upholstered in burgundy velour.
