We are restoring our 1 owner 1970 Cougar with Decor group and we bought new upholstery for it to bring it back to original only to find out that the knitted vinyl they sent us is only a cheap imitation. Back in 1980 we had a mouse get in and chew 4 small holes in our original knitted vinyl and we replaced the inserts with pleated velour fabric from a Cadillac. We now have these original upholstery items for sale. They are black, and in perfect condition except for two spots about 2 inches long on the vinyl of the drivers seat which was repaired with some sort of a melt on vinyl patch which did a good job of repairing the vinyl but left a scar. If you are interested in them e-mail me at paulsen@gtmc.net and I will send you pictures. I am going to start taking them out of the car today, December 31,2012.
Completely off the topic, but stories of original owner Cougars are always a treat. Care to share the story of your cat with us? a few pics would be nice. And best of luck with the sale!
