I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

you can pop ou the trunk lock really carefully if all that you do is pry on it right. If you do it right, it wont even mess up the trunk lid.

*sigh*  It's sad.  I can't imagine things being so bad in the US that I would risk my life to run to Canada.

An Arizona Department of Public Safety officer found a female illegal border crosser dead in the back seat of a gray Mercury Cougar


WTF - she wasn't even in the trunk? She was in the back seat! The guy that left her in the car could've at least left a window down, or she could've opened a door - I wonder what really killed her?

OK, so which one of you guys in the southwest with a grey Cougar abandoned it in Arizona?
