I had a '79 model XR-7.Moon roof,bucket seats,power everything.Great car.Good luck with yours.Parts are getting harder and harder to find.I saw a '78 T-Bird at the salvage yard a few days ago.Very good shape,just not running.I had installed the T-Bird fenders on my Cougar because I like the vents on them.They're the same car basically.
Looks like Boats are us.
just kidding there good cars to get motors from.
I have seen a few of the big style cars like that done for lowriders or done with BBs. As for a car to drive every day U need a big @ss sticker that say,
U are My Crumple Zone
88turbo,
I think you might have responded to a thread of mine a while back about each of us having an '88 TC and a '77 Cougar. I still love the '77-'79 Cougar XR7's and hope to have another one someday. So are you rebuilding the blue one, or just stealing the motor out of it for something else? I hope you tell me you're rebuilding the '77. I know they're some huge cars, but I can't recall ever seeing someone actually build one to be a hot rod with serious HP. Best of luck with the project. Make sure to post pics if or when you get it put back together. Later.
