1969 Cougar XR-7 with half vinyl top?

Hi!

I spotted a strange looking XR-7 CJ428 '69 with a landau half vinyl top. Could that be original or is that just some aftermarket addition?

Thanks!

Aftermarket.

Notice the Shelby-esque trunk and quarter extensions too. That actually is not bad, but the roof, fuggedaboudit.

Not to keen on the roof, and i would like to get a better look at the trunk and extensions. Kinda missed it on the trunk key but the rest is worth looking into!

I thought so, such a hideous thing. I didn’t spot extensions first, the roof stole my attention. Looks like the trunk extension has some wavy bondo fitting - who knows what is hiding underneath.

This car is actually on debt collectors auction in Finland. You can check rest the photos: Huutokaupat.com - Suomen kiinnostavin huutokauppa

I am slightly tempted to bid because of the 428… :whistle:

Ok, so is that 5k Euro that it is bid to? Which is, what… $6500? For an R-code XR-7 with power windows and leather interior.
I must not be reading that correctly.

Bidding is ongoing for two weeks, so the 5k Euro is just the current bid. I guess it will go easily to 10k Euro or more…?
