Rebuilt, Rebuildable & Reconstructed

This Cougar convertible is one of less than 2,000 XR7's built in 1970. It has the great large port 4 barrel Cleveland engine, power windows, NO air, and "stereo" labeled speakers. It is a disc brake car. It is rough. The car has been sitting outside, under a tarp since 1981 and shows it. The bottoms of the doors are rusted as well as the floor in all the typical locations. The front fenders don't look too bad and the quarters are straight but rusty. The trim has pitting but mostly there. In the engine compartment the carburetor and starter are gone. Plan on an engine rebuild or sell it to finance a new floor. This is a tempting car for me. I am going to sell it, part it, or rebuild it myself. By spring I figure I could have a solid rolling body to work with. Luckily, you get a shot at it because I just have too much stuff. The car is located between Buffalo and Rochester, New York. Shipping is your responsibility. I can help load it. Due to the length of time the car has been unused and off the road I can only provide a Bill of Sale as proof of ownership. If you are inclined to big projects and a Ford guy, this car is more masculine than a Mustang and there just aren't any rough enough to have a low entry fee price. And think of that factory 300 horse engine! Call me at 585-797-7421 for information. If you are a TV show producer this is a dream car ready for a Cat Scratch Fever series. Thank you, Bernie
