1986 Mercury Cougar GS 5.0 302 from North America
Summary:
Great project car
Faults:
Driver's side power seat motor no longer moves back and forth.
General Comments:
This car is in stock factory mode is slow. It's very heavy and the stock engine(s) are underpowered. The steering is loose and sloppy, and the interior rather drab.
However, there are many modifications that can be made to the car to enhance its performance, style and looks. Ford Mustang parts are easily interchangeable with these vehicles (a Cougar is really nothing more than a longer, heavier Mustang).
This is a great project car. There are so many things that can be done to this "grandma-grandpa" car. All you need is time, money and research, and you can have yourself quite the "sleeper" on your hands!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No
