I thought my Cougar was in great condition. 2 door dings, and minor overfueling problems are my problems.
A kid in a later part of the Auto Collison Program inherited his Grandpas 85 Cougar LS I think. Black with red striping like BlckNRedCougar's car. 3.8 V6 and only 40,000 original miles.This car is pristine. I only got one picture of it on my phone, and I didnt talk to him directly. I talked to most of his classmates.
Looks like an XR-7 badge on the sail panel. Definately sweet though.
:cougarsmily: ours only has just over 27,000 its also an "85 ls" there is a photo of our cougar in the 1985 viewer pics section!!
Nope...it's not an XR-7.
They had the painted (blacked-out) window trim and mirrors and the 85-86 had the fog light bumpers. That is not an XR-7 badge on the C-pilar....it's just a "std" Cougar.
Suspension looks a little off. :hick:
Nice car though!
No they had just aligned and recharged the AC. That car is flawless, just like the kids WS6 Firebird. And no its an LS, not an XR7, its a 3.8.
What's so nice about it,it's a plain jane v6 car?????
Looks like it is a nice car, however from the picture it appears that it is actually a GS.
It's missing:
- Bright rocker panel molding
- Electroluminescent coach lamps
- LS style B-pillar

:cougarsmily:
the obvious giveaway that it's not an XR7 is the chrome window trim and mirrors.
OK GS, LS I know little of the differences off the top of my head. I bought an 86 LS, and it had all of that. I would trade my truck for that thing.
:iagree: But guys its just another four eyed cougar thats still running. Let alone that it be a 3.8 v6 :cougarsmily: :cougarsmily:
It's hard to tell from the photo but we'll take your word that it's nice. Bring digital camera next time. ;)
My "plain jane V6 car" picked up a nice third place trophy from a national show, its first time out. Beat out a whole bunch of V8 cars. Nice condition older 1980's cars...now that's something you don't see every day. Doesn't matter what's under the hood. There are probably twice as many excellent condition V6 cars out there than V8 ones.
My bad. I knew the '86s had black chrome, wasn't sure about '85s. It did look loke an XR-7 badge to me but what the hell do I know, I can't see shirts without my glasses.
Eric not to dis your cars, but I think this one is in the same if not better than your 84. I looked it over, it looks like it rolled out of a showroom. I only had my phone, it was during class...my bad.
:2gunsfiri "cougrrr302" Is there a chance you could take more photos so that we can see for ourselves. Before this becomes a whos better topic :cougarsmily: :cougarsmily:
I tried to clean up and sharpen the photo...hope it helps a little...
Yeah that thing is nice:D
It was in the shop again today, and Yes I did run to get my camera, but he had it out by the time I got back. I heard him telling people to not touch it, and that he keeps all of his cars clean lol. Im gonna talk to him and tell him to check out the site.
