My 1967 Mercury Cougar

If you guys are interested this has been my project for the past 5 years now I think that it is a pretty awsome build up.

Well I did everything myself besides the leather seats, and the paint job. Yeah I rebuilt the numbers matching motor and trans. I bored it 30 over, forged internals, Probe industries forged pistons, Crane cam, Crane rockers, Edlebrock intake manifold, Edlebrock carb, long tube headers, flowmaster mufflers, upgraded distributor, trans cooler, racing oil pan, sway bar upgrades,2500 watt full compition stereo, HID headlights, the trans has a shift kit and a TCI saturday night special stall converter. many other things it has been alot of fun.

Nice! Dig the paint, Kinda has a Dirty Mary Crazy Larry them going. I always wanted one of those, when I was 16 they were pretty cheap to buy now they are worth a mint. Shoulda coulda woulda.

Cougars are one of my favorite muscle cars of all time. I really like the color and the over all look.

Sweet ride.

What else do you have planned for it, or are you done?

That thing is sweet, man. That is my dream car. I am so freakin' jealous, I can hardly stand it.
