JUNE 2009 SHOWFreds68cougar's 1968 Mercury Cougar

AFTER SOME WORK AND NEW TIRES AND WHEELS 

WHEN I BOUGHT MY COUGAR ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO THE ENGINE, THE WHEELS AND TIRES, AND THE INTERIOR NEEDED QUITE A BIT OF WORK AS YOU CAN SEE BY THE 1ST 2 PICS. WELL THE CAT SAT FOR ABOUT A YEAR WITH A CAR COVER ON IT UNTIL I COULD AFFORD TO PUT SOME MONEY INTO IT, MOST OF YOU UNDERSTAND WHERE I'M COMING FROM. SO FAR I'VE PUT NEW WHEELS AND TIRES ON, I PULLED THE 850 DEMON CARB OFF BECAUSE I COULDN'T KEEP THE ENGINE RUNNING, EVERY TIME I'D STOP AT A REDLIGHT THE ENGINE WANTED TO STALL OUT, SO I PUT AN EDELBROK 650 CARB ON IT, RUN GREAT NOW. I PUT ON A NEW COMPLETE POWER STEERING SYSTEM, THE PREVIOUS OWNER REMOVED THE ORIGINAL POWER STEERING. I ADDED NEW SHOCKS AND LEAF SPRINGS, NEW HEADERS. I HAVE A FLOMASTER EXHAUST WITH NEW HANGERS AND PIPES AND EXTENSIONS BEHIND THE REAR WHEELS. I HAVE NEW SEAT SKINS, HEADLINER AND SEALS FOR THE FRONT AND REAR WINDOWS BECAUSE IN ORDER TO INSTALL THE HEADLINER YOU HAVE TO PULL BOTH THE WINDSHIELD AND REAR WINDOW. I'LL BE GETTING THESE INSTALLED IN THE NEAR FUTURE, THEN I'LL START ON SOMETHING ELSE. I'LL BE POSTING NEW PICS SOON.
