Hello, Names Don and this is a '73 Cougar XR-7 Convertible i've had for a few years.under 82k original milesI did some work on the car like new steering wheel, new shocks on the front, have the new rear just not on the car, Have a new dash pad (not installed), new trunk mat, new convt boot cover.I'm the 3rd owner of this car. Last owner did an Amateur Restoration about 6-7 yrs ago. So paint, top, interior replaced. New power top ram installed but the switch went bad so top is non-op.Motor is a 351 Windsor and has a fresh tune up and runs perfect. Auto trans shifts smooth. Power steering and brakes work good.I've driven it the last 2 summers and runs cool.Some things still need fixingAC isn't cold, Turns on but not cold.Has some chips and cracks some mild rust but pretty solid.I'm a Contractor and I took the car in trade for work.Looking for a driver with lots of potential here it is.These Car are going up in value and will be an investment in years to come. Low Reserve !!! NADA prices already high. http://www.nadaguides.com/default.aspx?LI=1-22-1-5013-0-0-0&l=1&w=22&p=1&f=5014&y=1973&m=1204&d=744&o=34847~19636&vi=77340&z=52404&da=1 I would consider this a 20 footer Average condition.Average Retail Value This vehicle would be in good condition overall. It could be an older restoration or a well-maintained original vehicle. Completely operable. The exterior paint, trim, and mechanics are presentable and serviceable inside and out. A "20-footer".
