Mercury Cougar (1978)
for sale
Price: US $1.00
Price: US $1.00
This Cougar is a fine example of a classic Luxury Coupe! This car is in great shape for it's age. It has a 351 Modified (Similar to the Cleveland) V8 with tons of torque. The Ford Motor Company rated this at 18 MPG on the highway according to the owner's manual. The original C4 Automatic has 50 miles on a full rebuild with a Nationwide warranty. Other new parts include the starter, starter solenoid, battery, alternator, voltage regulator, belts, cap, rotor, plugs, wires, gas tank and all 4 tires. The center caps are not on the wheels in the pictures, but I do have them in the trunk. Original 8 track radio, Cruise Control, all lights, horn, and even the door buzzer all work! This car drives perfectly and I would trust it to drive anywhere today. Receipts for the new parts including the transmission are included to show applicable warranties (Except the tires because I misplaced it). This car is a lot of fun to drive and is constantly getting compliments. You can not beat the comfort of this car!
Items that need attention (Full disclosure):
Right front turn signal lense is broken (I'm trying to locate one, and it will be replaced if possible before the auction is over)
XR7 badge is missing from the trunk lid
Small tear in the Driver's seat
Both interior door pulls are cracked
Paint is faded, and has minor scuffs, but in great shape for the age.
These are all very minor cosmetic blemishes, but I don't want anyone to be disappointed.
Please feel free to ask questions, or request an in person inspection prior to the end of the auction. $500 deposit due within 48 hours of auction end and balance due at pick up of the vehicle.
