1969 RX7 Cougar 390

06-07-2008, 09:20 PM

So my family decided today to get the Cougar out of the container! It has not been out since 1997 haha. As I get it cleaned up I will be updating every one. It is one nice car, and has some kick. Need to get some minor work done on it. And get it re-painted, spending 11 years a a big steel box was not the best for it. The passenger door got messed up when they lifted the container and moved it. Oh well its fix able and did not hurt the body line! More to come soon when I clean it up and what not. Its raining right now so I am in for the nite.
