Numerous marker lenses inner and outer – ok shape.
Interior (out of car):
Interior was in rough shape when I bought it. So I sped the original interior (inc. seats, carpet, all the panels, dashboard, headliner) and got better used components out of a few junkyard cougars.
Since the parts came out of a more than 1 Cougar, none of it really matches. I didn’t care because I was planning to have it all reupholstered anyway.
The ‘new’ interior includes: all seats except drivers side front seat. (I was looking for one with power recline to match the passenger side.) Both full power front seat bases. Dual power front seat wiring harness. Dashboard, door panels, interior panels, headliner.
Like many other people that want to restore an old car – I’ve neither the time nor the resources to do so at the moment. It’s not costing me anything to leave it sit in the barn. I just figured I’d see if there’s anyone interested.
What you’ll get is a good SOLID car ready to be built from the ground up. More pictures are available upon request.
What I paid:
$500 for the car.
$400 for the Cobra Intake
$200 for the TC Rear Axle
$100 for the TC hood.
$125 for the tail lenses
$100 for the headlights
$300 in miscellaneous parts (interior: dash seats etc.)
$100 for the new bumper
$1725 invested.
What you’ll pay: (plus whatever the shipping may be)
$300 for the car.
$300 for the new Cobra Intake - SOLD!!
$200 for the TC Rear Axle - SOLD!!
$50 for the TC hood.

dont need it thanks
dont need it thanks
Hey blackcat - hows $30 + shipping for the base and wiring? I have to run back home and dig it all out of the attic still. Soonest I can get back there will be Saturday.
CougarSE - the automatic TC's weren't V8's? - I wouldn't know, the guy that originally sold me the axle said it was from an automatic TC so I just assumed they had V8's in them.
Do you know if the dash will fit an 84 and it is the full dash or just the top part?
It's the full Dashboard. It came out of an 88 cougar with a column shifter. I don't think it will bolt up to an 84 though...check with the guys in the misc tech section - they might be able to help...
Thanks, But can you remember my name for it?
Absolutely - you've got first dibs on it.
30 is cool with me, shipping to 20744 let me know
Ok. I'll have to go to Union Grove and find all of it in the attic. I probably won't be able to get back there till the weekend but I'll let you know asap.
How much for the dash shipped?
Im pretty Interested in the body. My Frame is rusted so bad that the jack stand actually broke through a piece the other day and i had to find a different place to lift it from. So I would be really interested in buying that.. but shipping to Detroit Mi is gunna be a hassle...
Yo bubba! did the rear sell? how far are you from michigan city,IN
