"Mess to Modern" A 67 Cougar Project
Greetings, Pro-Touring!
I've been a long time lurker on these forums and finally got the nerve to start my own build thread.
My current project is a 67 Cougar that I bought 11 months ago as a rusted out roller. For my goals, this is a perfect candidate. I'm building a daily driver that has all the “cool” of a classic but all the convenience of a contemporary. Since I intend to replace just about every major system, I found a bargain in a non-running, low option car. No sense in paying extra for that “like new” cheap paint job or “freshly rebuilt” drum brakes. For the purists, I'm not hacking up a rare Boss Eliminator in survivor condition. This is just a basic 302 coupe that needed resurrecting.
I've made a lot of progress up to now but I've documented and photographed along the way so I'll attempt to quickly catch up.
Here's the car on the day I picked it up.
