1988 Cougar XR7 - probably best for parts May 26, 2009, 02:53:24 PM 1988 Cougar XR7, approximately 120,000 miles, located in Philadelphia, PA, clear title - currently non-running. I ran out of time, money and space on this Cougar, so I'm selling her as-is. A rebuilt 302 shortblock with 9,000 miles was swapped in over the winter, as well as all the HO goodies. What happened was after the swap was completed and the car was running, the H-pipe went bad, damaging the valves on the driver's side with possible damage to that head as well. Also during the brief time the car was running, the brake pedal felt a low, so that needs to be looked at. The good things about the car: 99% rust free, clean underbody, Weld Draglites with matching tires and about 90% tread left, rebuilt AOD about 3,000 miles ago, the motor is sitting on a set of Chuck's motor mounts, all glass is good, dual manual seats (weird, right?) The bad: car is very dirty inside and out (will need a good cleaning), seats are squished with typical driver's seat lean, exterior is missing some trim pieces, the driver's side door has been repainted at some point, paint overall is toast, needs engine, brake, exhaust work. The car is pictured in my sig and the banner up top, more pictures are coming! Asking $550 or best offer, flexible. If I can't sell the car whole, I will be forced to part her out (I know, I know I'm horrible) so stay tuned if it comes down to that. Quote Selected
