1968 Mercury Cougar Finally back on all 4 new tires!
A video showing my Cougar with the new tires on it, finally off the jack stands, and on the tires! I got all 4 tires the same size, but it still looks good! The old tires were way too big on the back, and even smaller than what is on now, on the front. So, now at least everything is 'equalized' out!
I also decided to show my other 'old' cars, and what I have to do to them next, before I start driving them again. My poor Hurst/Olds still has no engine, or trans. I did make a promise to myself to get that car running before the car show season starts, so we can take the Cougar, and it to shows! Hopefully, I can keep my promise!

1968 Mercury Cougar XR 7 GT STK # 863 *SOLD*
Watch out! There's a rare Cougar on the prowl in Charlotte, NC! This Marti report documented Cougar was purchased with both the XR7 and GT option groups from the factory. It's also an original numbers-matching J Code 390 big block with air conditioning. In the Cougar world it doesn't get much better than this! The XR7 option gave buyers luxurious options such as the custom wood grain dash w/tachometer, overhead console, and interior lighting group. The GT package added power front disc brakes, stiffer suspension, and a Ford 9 Inch rear end as standard equipment. This Cougar is also the correct Augusta Green Metallic with Beige interior color as when it came new. This is a very nicely restored car that is something you don't see every day.
