I would just like to reiterate that this Cougar is not a restored car , it is an original car that was repainted once over 20 years ago . I have not detailed this car in any way , it has been garage kept and pampered for decades . This is what a car should look like that is 55 years old and has been cared for , a very honest car . Thank you for looking and happy bidding !!
