Up for auction with a low reserve is a 1967 Mercury Cougar XR 7 project. The car came from the Pacific Northwest and is pretty solid with the exception of places that will be described further. While it isn't very pretty, this is an unaltered original Cougar. I am 99% sure it has it's original drivetrain. Even the original transverse muffler single exhaust system is still on it. It has been off the road since 1979. It is currently not running and I have no idea if it will because I haven't tried to start it and don't plan to. It is pretty straight with the exception of a few whiskey bumps. body gaps are good and may even have some original paint on it. It has a clean title and bill of sale from last registered owner. Body: Rust in front passenger floor pan. Likely from a leaking heater core. Rust (as shown in pictures) in passenger lower quarter panel. There is the typical rust (for cougars and mustangs) where the fender aprons overlap. Very minor. The rest of the car is rust free as far as I can tell. There is evidence of light collision in the front as one of the fender aprons has been replaced as well as the hood. There is no evidence of structural or frame damage. This appears to have been done a very long time ago. Only cosmetic. Interior: It's all there but needs redone obviously Please ask questions if you didn't get your answers here before you bid. Thanks
