Vehicle Detail
Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 VINTAGE MUSCLE CLASSIC! I am selling a Solid 1968 Mercury Cougar Coupe with a numbers matching V8 302 J engine. It has the C4 Automatic Transmission, and factory disk brakes. Has the hideaway lights and that timeless style . It has factory Power Steering, power brakes, and factory A/C components are there ( not hooked up) Odometer says 21219, but probably has turned over. It has had 2 owners that I am aware of. I have the original purchase booklet for the car when it left the lot. The internal body has been sprayed with a form of Rhino Lining, and the outside bodywork had the standard marker lights shaved off to give it a meaner, sleeker look. The fenders look clean and The engine has been cleaned up, painted, and new plugs/wires/distributor. Cleaned and reinstalled the Holley 4 barrel carburetor. New Alternator Belt Vacuum lines rerun New Battery New headlight Switch New Brake Switch New Accelerator Pump New Brake Booster New Master Cylinder New Fuel Tank New Fuel Sending unit It has been restored to about 90% completion. You can see the restoration process at the Classic Cougar Community site in the Project Forum under the "Twins in Cougartown" heading. The body is black matte primer, so you can simply drive into the paint shop and pick your color. The remaining components needing troubleshooting are Turn Signals (original sequential lights aren't responding.. I am not an electrician...) Front Seats are worn (they are over 50 years old!) A/C needs to be hooked up, flushed, and charged... Some body badges (have them, but were removed to allow for painting) The NADA had listed this car Style/Year/Engine/Options at Poor Condition -$12k Good Condition - $20K Excellent Condition - $33K
