I have purchased a good used pair here on eBay and they will be included, but not installed. No rust found other than what was already mentioned and pictured, trunk, floors and passenger side are all dry and clean. I put a wrench on the crank and the engine turns over quite freely, all the way around. It is a 351W out of a 1975 or newer car, as it says "CATALYST" on the valve cover engine decal. It also has the radiator from the donor car, mounted quite nicely. All engine accessories including the A/C are present and properly installed. Like I said, this car was running when parked. The front seats are high back buckets that look like 1969/1970 Mack I seats, but I'm not sure. All seats are all in great shape except a couple of minor spots on the top of the drivers seat back. The wheels are stock with roller tires and no hubcaps. The headliner is in good shape also. Factory radio and faceplate are missing along with the Cougar emblem on the front and the XR-7 emblems for roof sides. Rear window trim and roof rail trim are missing. I do have the drivers side rear reflector that can be glued back on. Drivers door only opens from inside. I do have the missing door lock.
