'87 XR7 new on here Reply #7 – January 15, 2006, 08:18:21 PM I love your car. Subtle body mods, nice wheels, fast 351 without a power adder, EFI. What more could you want? Lovely. Quote Selected
'87 XR7 new on here Reply #8 – January 15, 2006, 08:39:55 PM Thanks for the praise, She is pretty fast, but it does have a power adder(150 shot of NX), I listed the mod below my sig. THe frt bumper is a std T-bird not a turbo coupe bumper.Other body mods;Tempo mirrors,T-bird frt bumper,painted body side moulding.I don't know if it is faster than Nicks, but I'm ready to find out when he is.

'87 XR7 new on here Reply #10 – January 15, 2006, 10:08:16 PM Yes, I had to cut off some off the top of the grill. Thats why it is painted now, to hide the grinder marks. Are you the maker of the sesqntial tail light mod? I love that. I paln on getting one of those units later this year. Quote Selected
'87 XR7 new on here Reply #11 – January 15, 2006, 10:25:26 PM I am indeed. You should get one - it'll shave 3/10'ths off your ET. Well it won't, really, but it'll make your Cougar's butt look better :D Quote Selected

'87 XR7 new on here Reply #13 – January 16, 2006, 10:06:31 AM Nice car and plenty 11 sec capable in my estimation, but that trap speed is kinda slow... You back out a little early on the top end??? Quote Selected
