77 Cougar Wagon

I Towed Off A Late 70s Mercury Wagon Today Never Even Looked To See What It Is But I Think Its A Cougar Villiger The Car Is All Hot Roded Out The Engin Has All Sort Of Aftermarket Stuff On It I Think It May Be A 400 Also The Fenders Had Old Cobra Emblems On Them At One Point But They Wernt Just Taped On .there Are Holes There Looked Factory But Im Almost Sertin There Not Ill Try To Get Pics Also Someone Busted Every Window Out Of This Car Its All Junk Now But If That Engin Runs And It Is A Cougar Villiger I Might Keep It

yep....thats a 77 cougar villager.    try a glass shop, they should be able to order the windows for them.  I think they used the same windows in some of the other ford and mercury wagons.  its worth a try if you want to save the car wich I would :D and if you do want to fix it up I have turn signal lenses that will fit nicely in that header panel ;) and if you decide to part it out I'll buy parts from ya :)

That thing is so f'ing sweet.  My dad had 2 77 2 doors.  I'm in love with that body style.  I also love wagon's for some sick ass reason.  That car looks sweet as hell.  Keep it and make the coolest weirdest wagon around.

id like to but i dont really have time to mess with it  needs glass prob a gas tank or at least clean it out been sitting since 97 also dont know why it was parked the engin runs but the radiator is missing and thats no reason to park it for 10 years also when i hooked up to it i didnt have a key so i thought id drag it out and then get it from the rear  but when i drove off with it the rear tires spun freely and the shifter said it was in park also the drive shaft is in place so it may be a tranny i dont know what to do with it also need to get a title  honestly ill prob pull the engin and s the car i really hate to but i have to much on my plate  turbo what kinda parts you need

its a York and they are quite simple


Maybe so, but it sure as hell looks different.  I've seen them before, but never actually had any dealings with them.

people use them as air compressors they are pretty durable


How heavy are they?  If use as an air compressor is feasible, I might just consider that vacuum canister project I had in mind.
