Concept "Cougar R"

Has anyone thought of a Cougar mixed with a Cobra R? The hood scoop, wing, engine, suspension, exhaust. I came up with some logos as a starter for it. If i can find another cougar, then i will instantly start on it. Just need some info. Support from you guys. What do you think?

I have a Thunder R concept in mind. Mostly suspension/chassis stuff. You know coil-overs, torque arm, watts, k-member, through floor subframe connectors, yadda, yadda...  oh yeah Cobra R wheels and side exhaust! Even thought about piecing together a logo. Like you I still need to find another TC to even start on it. And before that I need to finish DarkThunder. *sigh*

Yea. Almost exactly what I am thinking. Upgrade all suspension, engine, and some cosmetic features of the Cobra R onto an 84 or 85 Cougar. Thats what years i wanna look into anyway if I can.

Those are the two logos I designed. They incorporate both Cobra R and Cougar logos(obviously). Also the way the R overlaps the other logo. Just dont know which to choose from as the finish logo.

I've been planning on using the cobra r wing on my cougar for quite some time now, even before I got it I knew I wanted to do it.  Now that I have my cougar, all I need is the wing, which ain't too cheap.

Oh, good Lord! Please, no one use that ricer wing. It was bad enough when Ford stuck it on a Mustang. You can get a lot classier than that with spoilers.

OK, after seeing that, I think that if I did go with that wing, I'd have a few inches cut off of it.  I guess I never realized how tall it actually is!
