Anyone interested The car is located in Schoharie NY 12157 is the zip. I can either email pics or ill post em here later. Dont know what hes asking for it but i will find out.

what is done to it? any problems? i would love one, unfortunatly rite now i have to finish paying for my surgery out of pocket :(
No problems to serious. No radio all new wires need to be run i think. motor was cleaned up all fluids were changed a new exhaust was put on. all brake components were changed alls it needs is to be bled. only major problem it has ( i think its major ) is the neutral safety switch was shot so instead of replacing it he just took it out. no major body work needs to be done. Needs a paint job ( obviously) just about all trim we have to finish. Bumpers are there but would probably need to be rechromed. only a few pieces missing like one side marker i think. Headlight doors work great. sequential rear lights still work great. If you can think of anything I might of forgot just ask. Any specific pics I can get them for you within a couple of days. Where are you located???? Justthrow a charge on the battery it starts right up Mean sounding car.
man, i wish i didnt f-up my hand... im in the hole for 7grand now from sergery, pluss emergancy room fees...
so it's ready ot be driven after you bleed the brakes? any major rust problems?
No rust at all last time I checked Its a solid car. Yes it could be driven from here.
Nate you still around any more questions? 87Cougar5pd you get the PM I sent back?
one weekend comeing up i might be going camping in NY, if i do ill come look at it. then maybe something will happen to get me some money, but i cant say for sure... i just got my emergancy room bill today :(
That sux well if you are up in the area let me know. Give me a call 518-221-8161.
Chris
Any more takers????? I would hate to see this car just sit and rot. It really is a solid car with minimal owork needed to be a great ride. I can get more pics if needed
Ok guys he really needs the car sold. He said hes willing to hear any reasonable offers. Again its a good car with some minor work it can be a great one. Either call me 518-221-8161 and ill pass the word on or email me suprfstcougar@aol.com and I can get you any pics you need.

im not ignoring you i am just going to my parents house on thursday to dig it out from under some snow and take some new pics and get a list of things thats necessary to complete car..
:( MAN I STARTED SQUIRMIN IN MY SEAT AT THAT THING, thats NICE!!!! i SO wish i had the money for it! if anyone here gets it, make sure to make it nice and post pictures. as it sits its nothing special, but restored or restomodded omg:bowdown: :bowdown:
Yeah its going to be a beautiful car.... I wish i had a garage I would take it.
AC since u live in LaGrange Ga u r close to some nice 67-70 selling cougars which I could get my hands on lol. U r lucky, by me all the cougars r rusted even the 80's and 90's mostly.. Mine has no rust for a 86 I parked next to a 95 or 96 and it was rusted out a couple days ago lol..
Got some new pics... a bunch of them. No real rust the only places I found it a whole in the driver side floor board which is pictured and the passenger quarter panel has some tiny rust holes which again there is a picture of it. There is some surface rust on some things but nothing bad at all.. Also included is two videos of the car running and of the rear blinkers sequencing. The firstone i good besides some of the bulbs were out. Second one same thing some of the bulbs are out. Both rear lights work flawlessy just have some bulbs blown out...

LEt me know if anything seems wrong or if anyone has any questions..
List of things it needs:
Some of the side marker lenses are missing. We have all exterior trim(pics of it in trunk).
Obviously it needs a paint job.
tranny pan gasket needs replacing it leaks
rear window needs to be put back in
My father says he has some if not all of the rubber weatherstripping still new in box (not a need but it needs to be installed)
Doesnt have a radio didnt have it when we got it.
Bumpers will probably have to be rechromed
I think thats it any other questions please feel free to email me...
No one grabed this yet, your area must be like mine no one is into classics anymore just those Dam ricers. I wish I could get rid of my bike and quad, I would take the ride down to get this. Looks like a real easy restore/fixer.
it really is this is suprisingly a solid car i can not believe how little rust is on this. This could really be a beautiful car... I hope someone saves it...
