Hello. What are my options for replacing the cowl on my 67 Cougar? Reproduction or the cowl from a donor car? Will Mustang cowls fit? Thanks.
I’d say go with the reproduction. More than likely a donor cowl will have some type of rust issue. Someone else might have to comment on the Mustang cowl being a fit. Welcome to the Classic Cougar Community.

$200 from Mustangs Unlimited, excellent fit, has WW mounting holes, weldable primer finish. Mustang/Cougar same piece for lower.
Yes, the lower is the same. The upper cowl panel is Cougar only though. The body lines are different.

Yes, and no Cougar upper cowl repro on MU, only Mustang. Are they made by anyone?
Thanks for the replies. I see the Cougar lower cowl on MU, but where’s the top part? In the next couple of weeks the car scheduled for media blasting and a coat of primer. Then (after Carlisle) I can do some welding and start putting parts like the cowl on the car.
No Top part, that is what we are saying…not available as a repop that I know of.
Check with West Coast Classic Cougars for the Upper as a Cut section. They may carry the Lower as a repop also.
As far as I know there are no reproductions of the top cowl panel for 67-8 Cougars. What is wrong with your original one? If you need to replace your top cowl piece I have one here already cut off that could be picked up at Carlisle.
