Had a ‘68 Mercury Cougar XR-7 390 Marauder GT big block, 4 barrel carburetor, Select Shift automatic in college with all the fancy chrome under the hood, valve covers, air cleaner cover, 325 hp, wood grain dash, AC, power steering and disc brakes, style steel wheels, Goodyear Polyglas F70 X 14 white lettering spiffy tires, sequential rear lights, hideaway headlights, tilt away steering wheel, leather bucket seats, all luxury and muscle combined. I sure miss that car.
I read some years back that 6% of Cougars were standard shift. Been trying to buy the same car from my cousin for years. 351 Cleveland 4-speed but it’s sitting in the same spot in his yard for 20 yrs. I built a 68 XR7 with a built 428 Police Interceptor (solid roller, 598 lift) 4-speed… it was sick…
NEITHER ARE " STUPID " THEY BOTH JUST WILL ADD A LITTLE BIT OF DISTINGUISHING CHARACTER AND A LITTLE EXTRA APPEAL TO THE EYE . AND JUST LOOK UNDER THE HOOD .. NOTHING ORIGINAL AND NOTHING " STOCK " THERE EITHER SO ... A LITTLE BIT OF EXTRA OUTER APPEARANCE ENHANCEMENTS WILL BE OK TOO . ARE THEY NECESSARY AND ABSOLUTELY NEEDED ... ? OF COURSE NOT . BUT BOTH FRONT END CHIN SPOILER AND REAR TRUNK LID SMALL WING WILL JUST ADD A LITTLE APPEARANCE ENHANCING " CHARACTER " THATS ALL .
Summit racing sells seat tracks for older cars that are great for taller guys! Car has an awesome exh and interior sound for stock...impressive. ALways liked the Cougars, if I had the opp Id motor one as a daily.
Nice Cougar. That engine is a 351 Windsor block with 351 Cleveland heads. People call it a "Clever". Is not something Ford ever put in a production car. Be interested to know what the engine and trans codes are. Is nicely done. Interior does look like a survivor and correct, rest restored. WIthout documentation I'd be careful about calling low mileage. I'd recommend getting a Marti report if you want to know how original it is.
Thats the only shade of green I'd have, so deep... gorgeous 👍💙👍 hood needs a bit of an adjustment to line up to the headlight trim..other than that I hope it's still there after I win the lottery🫣🥴🤙
Had the same exact car in high school metallic green and a 1/3 rd avocado green vinyl top but automatic loved that car , too bad our drunk ass neighbor slammed his truck into it and totaled it.
I have the twin to this car except mine is saddle interior...Found it rotting away in a prescott valley junkyard..Couldnt believe someone sent it there...by Fords numbers its one of two with the close ratio 4 speed and 3.50 traction lock....1 of 108 M code 351C 4v close ratio 4 speed cars...mercury did not like manuals in there cars..
Keep driving the crap out of it ,and it won't be worth a s++t. I liked the car before ya'll started slammin the gears, But not now. I'm sure someone else will buy it not knowing what I just saw ,but that's ok. There are other vehicles elsewhere.

@@scottmccaffery6069 Could be but on a car this old I pay 0 attention to the odometer. They could always ask dmv they can see prior owners mileage etc

I sure miss that car.
You guys are always putting out the best Classic Cars on the internet!!! You know I love this one !!!
WOW, WOW, WOW‼️
I miss the Mercury division; my Dad had 2 of them when I was a kid and I loved them both 😍
The way that car was cared for , I'm sure it wasn't treated like you just did

This car does NOT need the rear wing or the chin spoiler.
I like the chin spoiler
I agree with you. I hate it when somebody ruins a nice original car and put something stupid on it.
NEITHER ARE " STUPID "
THEY BOTH JUST WILL ADD A LITTLE BIT OF DISTINGUISHING
CHARACTER AND A LITTLE EXTRA APPEAL TO THE EYE .
AND JUST
LOOK UNDER THE HOOD ..
NOTHING ORIGINAL AND NOTHING
" STOCK " THERE EITHER
SO ...
A LITTLE BIT OF EXTRA OUTER APPEARANCE ENHANCEMENTS WILL BE OK TOO .
ARE THEY NECESSARY AND ABSOLUTELY
NEEDED ... ?
OF COURSE NOT .
BUT
BOTH FRONT END CHIN SPOILER AND REAR TRUNK LID SMALL WING
WILL JUST ADD A LITTLE
APPEARANCE
ENHANCING
" CHARACTER "
THATS ALL .
Put all the spoilers you can get. If you ever get past 140 the air underneath will want to send you up.
BEAUTIFUL green, looks a mile deep ❤
I love Cougars & that color is killer!
Nicest one I've seen, tear in the seat & bubbles under the vinyl. My God that nice
That boy is bad🏁 I had a 1970 XR7 351 Cleveland White, Sun roof. The boy was so fast that nobody wanted to race me.👈😁🗽🥂💯
Love the Hurst T shifter
Beautiful car, don't spoil the lines with BS spoilers. Don't Mex it up!

Beautiful
Beautiful ride
Very Cool!
Very nice... without the spoilers. I'd include them with the car, but don't drill holes in the body, not everyone likes them.
Chin spoiler yes
Nice

Looks like the hood isn't closing up, chrome trim on the front isn't lining up.
Did you drill into that trunk to put that stupid spoiler on there? Please say no
Sold?
Definitely do not go with the rear spoiler, it looks great the way it sits
Watzit cost???
I'd be at $28k
Paint restoration.😅 amazing what you can cover up with paint.
Steep price for an XR7
Keep driving the crap out of it ,and it won't be worth a s++t. I liked the car before ya'll started slammin the gears, But not now. I'm sure someone else will buy it not knowing what I just saw ,but that's ok. There are other vehicles elsewhere.
Its not ruined from running up to 4k a few times, sure its been done before .
Doing it when engine is cold, not a fan of.
I don't know what the cost of shipping will be in about a year but when the next crypto bull run is done ...expect a call from Alberta Canada.
I find it hard to believe that is a factory XR7 luxury coupe. More like a Cougar Eliminator.
Headlight trim on passenger is not even.
Not original on many levels and they have the temerity to ask 40k! Highway robbery
too high
