Mercury Cougar XR7. 351W, Rare factory 4 Speed.
Power Steering, Power Disc Brakes.
This Marti Report documented XR-7 has received lots of care and attention, not to mention quite a bit of cash, over the last couple of years. The car just is just receiving the final touches at professional restoration shop after receiving a top notch Orange paint job. No expense was spared on materials. Only PP&G products and especially important, only their high line clear coat was used.
The driveline has less that 2500 miles on a complete rebuild. The motor & transmission were both completely redone. A new clutch & pressure plate was installed. While the motor was out the engine compartment was stripped to bare metal, smoothed and re-sprayed gloss black. The "Powered by Ford" aluminum valve covers were media blasted and re-sprayed to match the new Edelbrock Elite Series air cleaner. An Edlebrock carb and Performer 351W aluminum intake was added. A four row aluminum radiator with dual electric fans was installed to update the cooling system. The power steering cylinder and valve are brand new. A new dual exhaust system with 40 series Flowmasters was custom welded to fit. To further freshen up the engine compartment new braided hoses and chrome/stainless fastener kit was used when the motor was reinstalled.
Both the sequential turn signals and the head light door system were recently gone through and are in perfect working order. The Magnum 500 rims and Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires are also brand new. A new Eoous Tach & Auto Meter Gauges were installed to monitor the freshly rebuilt motor. Worthy of mention is the near perfect condition of the chrome on the grill work and tail light panels.
This Cougar XR-7 runs and drives better than it did in '69. It is quick and a blast to drive. This car gets compliments wherever it goes. It will be missed when it's gone!
*I am installing new factory correct XR-7 seat covers on the buckets and rear seat. I will post new pictures when the job is done.
