Re: 87' cougar...help Reply #1 – April 05, 2005, 02:27:19 PM No you're not....no 87 Turbo Cougars unless it was a swap......You didn't give us enough info either to help decide if it's a good deal or not.If it's complete, fair body, runs ok, then yeah $900 is probably good, but it's not a turbo Cougar from the factory.

Re: 87' cougar...help Reply #5 – April 05, 2005, 06:03:43 PM If it turns out to be an 86, maybe it was a misprint. Have you talked to this guy or seen the car yet? Quote Selected
Re: 87' cougar...help Reply #6 – April 06, 2005, 07:08:24 AM Or maybe "Turbo Cougar" is "Turbo Coupe"?Okay, who else has an "or maybe..." that hasn't been suggested?(One per customer, please) Quote Selected
Re: 87' cougar...help Reply #7 – April 07, 2005, 06:16:52 PM maybe it had a 4 banger in it and they put a TC turbo setup in it.... = tarbo cougar! Quote Selected

Re: 87' cougar...help Reply #9 – April 07, 2005, 07:59:04 PM Or maybe they put a 87-88 front clip on an 83-86 XR7. That would confuse lots of people who don't know these cars. Quote Selected
Re: 87' cougar...help Reply #10 – April 07, 2005, 08:09:19 PM I'm sure it's probably just an '86. People (the seller of the car, in this instance) can never get the years right on these cars. Quote Selected
Re: 87' cougar...help Reply #12 – April 14, 2005, 12:31:55 PM Maybe its a canadian or mexican car where they like to use leftover parts from prevoius years Quote Selected
