capitlj's 1988 Mercury CougarThis is the subject an 88 Mercury Cougar Special Edition. Currently rocking the 5.0 302 V8 in SO trim.
capitlj's 1988 Mercury CougarThis is what a stock blue max looks like.
capitlj's 1988 Mercury CougarSoon ill be smoothing and repainting the interior, putting HO parts under the hood to get about 200 horses out.
capitlj's 1988 Mercury CougarNot many pics right now but ill take some more when it warms up a bit, expect to see some before and after shots as well.
capitlj's 1988 Mercury Cougar Here she is with some TLC and a load of cash again not many pics but its starting to come together
capitlj's 1988 Mercury Cougar Here is a very dirty set of mustang turbines i shaved the ford logo out of the cap sandblasted the rims and painted them to match the car. Then I wrapped the fresh rims in Cooper Cobra 265/50/15 meats. Take my word for it when they are clean it gives the car a proper attitude.
capitlj's 1988 Mercury Cougar Side shot the stance is still "truckish." Notice the reef blue 93 mustang GT in the background, yeah were crazy about 5.0 foxes up here in North Dakota.
capitlj's 1988 Mercury Cougar Good shot of the clear corners done the hard way by cutting them apart, removing the yellow, then gluing them back together.

Nice Cat I wanted to know if it was hard to put the nightshades of the tail lights. When ever you have a chance take a look at my Cat and let me know what you think.
