There's been some chatter about Cougars here, so thought I'd share this:

I know nothing about these, so maybe that's why I could think $6500 wasn't too bad for this good looking (IMHO) project...

That description reads like every car kid's dream setup in 1978.

I've always been a Chevy guy but that is a pretty cool car. Love the deep dish aluminum slots!

Believe it or not, that's not a great deal on that cat. They really don't bring the money (which makes them a good deal IMO).

I'd say its a $4,500 car all day long and even then as a driver. A full resto would set you back more than you could sell it for.

The Eliminator in the other thread had that going for it. Although an XR7 with the 4bl 390 and 3.57 loc aint bad....
