Here is what I’m starting with and parts, it’s only rusted on the top areas which is better than the bottom to me.
I give up I have a hell of a time posting pictures
Thanks

And thanks for saving an important Cougar.

Egad. That’s going to be some work, but I agree with Phillip. I’m glad someone is willing to step up and save it and not let it rot away.
I don’t think it’s that bad, the most challenging will be the roof, i think I’m doing the whole thing not just the skin.
Well the 1 good thing is now if you don’t want to deal with the trunk issue as I seen 1 of your replacement one has some rust, don at WCCC should have that and the hood later this year…
thanks
pat
p.s. glad your going to save it, well worth it.
I didn’t show it but I have a perfect hood and trunk lid , the one in the trailer I just haven’t gotten rid of.
Thanks for sharing your project.
Where did you find this one?
I was buying the items to make a clone on eBay and a fellow named Jon M. from Michigan noticed what I was doing and E mailed me and said he had a hertz that was to ruff for him if I was interested I could have it for just what he had invested 1800.00 so took a trailer and came back with it .He had already purchased another but not a hertz but it was also Diamond blue which he did not like and eventually he painted it calypso coral , he was in a magazine with it quite awhile ago, he use to post on here under GollyG but he has disappeared , great guy.
I have not been able to contact Jon for many years. He moved once he retired and has not been in contact. Certainly hope he turns up.
Great car to restore…good luck.
Nice haul Randy. Tell me you didn’t get the console, fog lights and hood scoop in that price? Does it have the right motor in it? I’ll be in the right place at the right time one day 
Pellets4 fuel- yes it came with everything except fog lights, the console I have done it’s shown in the project section under wood graining and other items under
Chroming , the motor had been changed to a small block but i have a 390 and C6 for it, I also have a 427 that I’m going to put in it.
Finally getting started, hope to make good progress this winter.[CCCGallery] 800|1067|2019|5764.jpg[/CCCGallery]
