1967 Mercury Cougar XR-7. This car is pristine and very nice. Every show it goes to it turns heads and wins something. The car was bought by me in 2013 out of a gentleman' s private collection. It is the original color with the original interior. All gauges work except the clock inside. The car has capability to be hooked up to iPod for music as you cruise but has the classic radio. The seats have no rips, stains, or tears nor does the carpet. All windows and door locks work. Car came with the Mercury Mardi report and original books from 1967 where the car was deemed "Muscle car of the year". The car has dual exhaust with flowmasters and sounds like a beast. The engine possibly may need some work. When we got the car and had the exhaust cropped, we discovered the car smoked. We had the top half of the engine re-done as the mechanic stated the cylinder walls looked good and it didn' t need re-ringed. The car runs great and all the parts that re-done the engine were hand picked by my husband from Summit Racing. However, the smoke issue didn' t cease and my husband says it should have probably been re-ringed. We have not done this for two reasons: 1. Lack of time and 2. car is rarely driven so it' s kinda out of sight, out of mind until we pull it out and notice it a lil. The smoking isn' t bad either and doesn' t affect the performance. But I want to be as honest as possible about the car. However, this may not need to be done-upto you.Automatic, wood trim in original, pristine condition, newer tires with cougar "running cat" wheels.Book value can be seen on NADA.
