I should've went with those hubcaps.They kinda look like my chrome Cobra R wheels if you step way back and squint your eyes a lot.

Ummm

my guess is the dude bought it with just the green and black paint job and it probably had expensive wheels that the seller did not want to give up so he threw steelies on it. Then the buyer "tricked it out" from there....

Honestly the only thing I really hate about it is the stickers..... Not crazy about the green, but it's not too bad...if the stickers were gone.

As for the hood... there are others here who have the scoops on theirs.... and the rims aren't too bad... maybe not what some here would choose, but not terribly ugly.

Hey that IS pimps cougar.....

For once I agree with her, LOL. Lose the stickers, scoops and put some real rims on it and it probably would be ok....

I can see what the dude has going on there...black scoops on the hood match the black paint on the rear quarters...probably couldn't find chrome rims in 4-lug anymore (aside from the ubiquitous Cobra R's) but wanted the chrome wheel look to match the mirrors...yeah, it may not be your cup of tea but it's his idea and actually it's fairly well executed. If he just lost the stickers I'd love it as-is, IF it's actually raced, which would explain the hubcaps.

(Any bets to see if it has the Scarlet Red interior? LOL.)

Hell, at least he DID something to his car...
...instead of just talk about it like a lot of people here...

Grey interior......STOCK drivetrain/suspension so far as I could tell. Wouldn't open the hood and it was whisper quiet.
The pictures do the body justice.
And FWIW I Hate those hood scoops from Lund no matter what you put them on...

And that green on our cars........no.

It is his car and he can do whatever the heck he feels like doing to it, I can appreciate that.
At the same time that's a lot of loud with no substance to back it up.
If it were an '86 Monte Carlo I highly doubt some of the comments would be as positive.

Just me.... ;)

I kinda like the "Hot Wheels" look it's got :hick:

A few "corrections" and it might not look so bad. I wonder if the stickers started out as a cover up for defects in the paint job?

Loks like a Mopar fan couldn't afford a Hemi 'Cuda so he "settled" for a Cougar with a Mopar scheme.

Looks alright needs to loose the stickers.

I cant hate on the caps maybe it is a money issue.

He's local.....I just passed him on 109 in my Coug. He was parked in a gas station parking lot in the car.

The pics were at Cedar Beach from this past Saturday.

This just gets better.......

Apparently, he's telling people there's a blower under his hood.....When pressured by one of those he told this to the other person asked him to run against his 3.8 powered 'stang with a vortech. He declined.

I am surprised that the awesomeness of the AMX (Javelin?) and the Corvette didn't make that run away crying for its momma. I wonder if the green is glow in the dark.

Post by: Haystack on August 06, 2008, 04:59:05 PM

why dont you pull him aside driving your cat, show him your motor and then ask him what kinda times he runs and what kinda blower? Then ask him if you wants to be included in your yearly cougar track meet?

The car looks good other than the hub caps and all the stickers looks a little ricey.

Title: I will never make fun of Carpimp's old car ever again
Post by: ~AC on August 10, 2008, 11:38:15 PM

the green and black doesnt look too bad b/c i've seen track cars painted worse. the rest of the stickers etc are hideous. sad thing is, if the cougar was truely fast, wouldnt those plastic hubcaps fly off? aka he's that slow?

unwarranted paintjob ftl.
