Doesn't get any rarer than this Cat! :)
It's clean! I'd pimp that for a while and then put a 460 in.

Isn't it just a Grand Marquis with cougar emblems?
It's not a Grand, I don't think. It's like an LTD/Fairmont and some other stuff.
well at least it doesnt have the beaver panels on the side like others that i've seen
Didja know that 79-93 Mustang front clips (fenders, grille, bumper, header panel, hood) will bolt right onto one of those with little modification? And a 5.0 HO will drop right in with only wiring mods? Wouldn't it be cool to have a Mustang (or Capri) wagon?
Ok, I'll slack off on the percoset a bit...
speaking of which

Yea really its just a Fairmont wagon(owned one and it had a 5.0) with the '80-'82 style Granada/Cougar front clip.
Not something I'd get a woody over... :dunno:
Yup, anything but the XR-7's were on the shorter Fairmont platform. Not a big fan myself...but it would be different....
I had one of those cougars but it was a sedan and yup its just a fancy fairmont as already stated
I think i just threw up a little in my mouth :yuck:
Congratulations. You just invented the worlds easiest car to break into, with the rear window crank on the OUTSIDE! :screwy:

Well, I like it...it can carry my drums and and not be in an SUV. Those rides are plush too, and only made for one year. And since its a 3.8L...no K-member swap to drop a 5.0 in!
I saw an LTD wagon with a 85-ish Mustang front schnoz on it...it looked pretty awesome. But I'd leave a Cougar as a Cougar.
EDIT: someone already posted it. :)
Hmm, just outta curiosity (now dont shoot me for askin) but would a mustang front clip fit say an 87-88 Bird?
I'd sure as hell hope not. :screwy:
Dont worry I like the Bird front end alot better. Still suprised by the amount of interchangeability of the Fox platform tho.
It wouldn't very well. Fenders are much too different to make it easy.
True because the fender kinda curve up to the window a bit.
Just a quick question. One of my freinds is parting out a mark 7 near me. He has a brand new front clip on it. It looks to be about the same, exept it would go through the fender. how close are they in length?
A Mark front clip would fit in theory, hood and fenders too. Marks use the same doors as 1983-1986 Cougars, so the crease along the side of the body should work.
I would not think that a 5 digit odometer should always be assumed to be correct. there should be some law for that in NY about the research involved in making sure thats the correct mileage.
IMHO,, its a BS mileage advertisp00get.
the car would be nice to just roll off into storage and one day in a few years,, it may be the only one left on the road in that cherry of shape.,, not to say it would ever be worth anything.
Can I poke my eyes out now???? :shoothead
