i hate the wheels man but overall the car looks great man. But the wheels kill it. Just throw some ponys on there or at least 10 holes but if you can afford like cobras or welds then go for it.

Transition between the rear bumper and lack of side trim stands out to me. Other than that, so far so good!

Not too bad,but it does need help.It is DANGEROUSLY close to becoming a 70's Camaro owner's dream car.Swap the exhaust tips,move the stripe WAY back,and get the car painted.The wheels look too small,and don't match that kind of car.Maybe a 4 banger Fox Stang coupe.Cougars and Birds just aren't meant for flat black paint and big ol' exhaust tips like that.Keep things symmetrical.Make sure everything fits together.I like the spoiler idea.Cougars pull that off better than the Birds do.Longer trunk lid I think.With the placement of the stripe,check out the early 70's Mopars.They got it right.Ma Mopar knew their back then.Things have changed,but the "style" is right.

I agree.I like the stripe idea a lot,just not so far forward.The letters do look like Autozone stick on stuff.I like the whole design you're going for though.Just needs a little fine-tuning.

Post by: Beau on July 11, 2009, 07:01:10 PM
If you want to do the eliminator lettering later, i'd go with a more subtle look, perhaps, kind of like ghost flames, for example...kind of unobtrusive, but yet different, and not something that looks like off-the-shelf parts-store special. ;)
I agree about the wheels as well, I bet turbines would go nicely with what you may have in mind for the finished product. I wish turbines were 16", I'd much rather have 'em over 'Flakes any day...
Other than that, I think it's shaping up well...the stripe idear is pretty neat, I dig it :D

On my budget, thats the only look i can afford!!! :rollin: Thanks for the replies guys,... and the lettering IS the autozone , i wanna put an original eliminator tag on it eventually, and i knew the wheels would kill ur opinions., but like i said, i have what i have and thats all,... glad to hear most of you like it!!!!! Hey vinn,.... whatcha mean by the whole spoiler thing??? FordtruckFreek...yes i wanted to blacken my turbines like some others have, but two are screwed.... and the AA rims only cost me $175 Now remeber guys, i threw this thing together in a day and have been making minor mods along the past 2,000 miles...... I put the stripe on right before i went to hampton beach for the fourth of july...... it was kinda a rush job,... but then again the whole car is primer anyway!!!

Post by: shame302 on July 11, 2009, 07:34:39 PM
I think it's coming together and looks alright. I like the stripe and eliminator script. 2 things that i have not seen on a cat/bird. The tips are not bad but they need to be tweaked. The wheels aren't my style but they look okay on the car. Probably would change those.
I see your rocking the "R" race sticker.

Post by: FLSTCI71 on July 11, 2009, 08:48:38 PM
I agree with most of the opinions already shared. Turbines or 10 holes would be a huge improvement. I think putting the 1/4 panel trim back on would help too because that bumper transition does just stick out. I would also lose the rear bumper stickers and "tone down" the trunk lettering. Modifications should improve the overall look of a car, not cause your eye to be drawn to them. Overall, with your budget (or lack thereof), I think it's coming along great. Now that I think about it, I've been working on my project for three years and it's not even on the road yet, so I should be taking advice from you!

I like the wheels, but then again I wasn't going to spend $250 a piece for a brand new set for my bird, lol. At least it looks different than everyone elses car. Who wants turbines? Everyone has turbines, all the mustangs and a ton of cougars and birds. The ten holes are very common too, I don't like having the same as everyone.

Title: OK, Lets hear it,... What Do You Think Of My Cougar....
Post by: 86XR7project on July 11, 2009, 10:38:29 PM
Bumper stickers are tacky and a DEFINITE no no.
The stripe looks pretty cool IMO along with your spoiler, I think this looks both tasteful and well executed with the Cougar in the stripe. Other than its all primer...
Good God man, put the turbines back on. Those AR rims only belong on Camaros.
The Eliminator text is a neat idea, I had wanted to make an Eliminator of my car as well. Great minds think alike I guess.
Keep up the work!

Post by: ipsd on July 11, 2009, 11:35:18 PM
Ok here is the DL. Keep the wheels if that is what you like. Thinking they have to much offset in the rear. But buy some LOW PROFILE tires. Then lower it down some. Not talking SLAMMED just enough to help the fender well gap with the lowpro's. Then if you want flat black just get real flat black that would help without all the Rattle can spots. Those tips are cool just need to be tucked and coming out the lower part of the rear bumper cover. As far as the strip do what you gotta do but the ghost stripe it where is it at. The huge ELIMINATOR on the rear each to there own but the ghost idea sounds good for this too. Next WINDOW TINT maybe not LIMO black like I like but something is a lot better than NONE. Might even once over those tail lights with some VHT taillight tint to help the over all effect. Maybe even get some headlight covers custom made. Full blackout mode. Maybe even spray some tail light tint over the wheels to give the shiny parts that SMOKED look. Be sure to cover it with clear to protect it.

I sorta like the eliminator is.
I always wanted to get a vinyl sticker made up to read Corvette Killer for the back window on my old cougar. I am sure you could get some races now.

Hey vinn,.... whatcha mean by the whole spoiler thing???
I mean,the Cougar has a bigger trunk lid.....more distance between the rear window and the back of the car,and the spoiler works well with your car......and Cougars in general.I think the spoilers look to cluttered on a Thunderbird.Now,that's only my opinion.We all like what we like.As with the Sport (my car),I built the car to what my vision of it stated it should be.The way I like it.That's what you have to do to your car,build it how you like it regardless of outside opinions.If you want things a certain way,but funds prevent that from happening,save the money and do it right.You'll suffer for a while during the waiting process,but be happier in the long run when the work is done as you want it.For the Eliminator badges,check Ebay,or,have some graphics made up (fairly cheap at a vinyl graphics shop.In the long run,I respect what you're doing,and encourage you to keep moving forward.Every project has to start somewhere....with an idea.Good luck.We all need that with these cars.LOL.

I run those same rims on my 83. They look nifty with raised white letter tires.
Of course, my rims are in worse shape, and I only paid $20 each for them at a junk yard (and they look better then the spoked hubcaps!!)

If you like the wheels, that's what counts. However, reread what you just said, "EVERYONE has turbines." Why is that? It's because turbines look awesome on these cars, just like snowflakes look awesome on Turbo Coupes. I know you don't like being the same as everyone else, but that's a fine line. Painting it pink with yellow polka dots would be different too, but definitely not desirable. You need to be different, but still tasteful and, of course, it has to be what you like as you're driving it. I still think you're doing a great job and it's pretty cool you're asking for opinions. You're certainly getting an ear full. Keep up the great work!

Back in the day, there was this chick around here that had what looked to be a custom Monte Carlo SS. Bigger wheels and tires, nice stance and maybe a warmed over motor, not sure. The eye catcher, though, was the paint. From the doors back, it was factory dark blue. Forward was a different story. The hood, fenders and front end were all primer, and there was a sticker or paint on one of the fenders about it being a hot rod (eg "street survivor" or something, don't remember what, exactly).
Are you planning on going 'primer' as your final paint scheme? Semi gloss and flat finishes are so 2008 these days.
Suggestions - I'd go with slightly bigger wheels and match the entire exhaust to the size of the tips, and if you're going to talk the talk with a scheme like that, make sure the car can walk the walk. Keeping that in mind, I do kinda like what you did with the trunk lettering.

(which im hoping to get this week, after i work a cement job with my stepdad... then, it toolin time!! but before i can drive around i at least need an h-pipe,... then s n turndowns,....if money permits,..... And yes i want to go satin black, with a deep red(maybe gloss0 stripe,.. then i may smoke the rims like ipsd suggested, with lower pro tires and lettering.... oh, itd be sick....

This is the truth. If someone posts a picture of their car just to "show it off a little", it is cool to respect it and not bash it even if you don't like it. However, if someone posts a picture of their car and says, "Let's hear it good and bad". Well, that's a different situation. The gloves are off at your request, so be ready to take some hard punches. Just read what's written, pick out the good advice, learn from it and move on.
P.S. This is just a generic comment not directed at the OP because I haven't seen him complain. Remember guys, it's just the interwebz, so don't take it too seriously.

Just curious.I didn't know if you had some kind of car lot,used car,type business somewhere.I know you get a lot of cool cars,and had thought maybe they were for selling somewhere.

no car lot. just very bad habit of car's following me home. my family use to me taking a drive for the day or two. they first look to see if the car trailer gone. if it isn't ,then I must have gone to get parts. my thinking is, Montana a big state. so why not make the trip useful by bring a trailer along.

Reminds me of my buddies Cougar. His went from 20th anny to being painted orange, blue with a mopar stripe, then satin black which showed every little flaw.

I honestly like how it looks. Minus the bumper stickers, it really doesn't look bad.
