The door also looks shorter. He's taken a good 10" out of the wheelbase. That's now a two-seater Cougar.I hope he isn't gonna keep those hubcaps on it for the rally :hick: Quote Selected

Maybe he can get some shots of the car and talk to its owner... Yeah! I'll have to check it out. I've pondered about entering the touring class myself but the price is too high for me. Just think of the improvments $4K could do to the TC. Plus you have to pay for hotels, meals, fuel, etc. Quote Selected
