New Cougar in the Family

There is another Cougar in our den. My brother Dennis and I have purchased Jim Pinkerton’s XR7G Hertz.The deal was done as easily as I could have imagined. I contacted Jim and terms were discussed. I then called Dennis and we agreed to aquire Jim’s Cougar. After a few phone calls I had with Jim and Dennis the deal was complete. Jim lived up to his reputation of being a class act. Between the phone calls and emails everything I asked was clearly answered and things could not have gone better. When the G arrived it looked as good if not better than the pictures put together by Jeff in the eBay listing. So again Jeff, Great Job!
Here is the G being unloaded.

Here is Dennis and I with our Grandfathers Cougar. This 1967 standard that started our love for Classic Cougars.

More pictures to follow.

Well that is a super addition and congrats to you and your bro and Jim Pinkerton as well.

Thanks for sharing the old school pic, very cool.

Congratulations, Dennis! That is a wonderful car and I’m sure you and your brother will really enjoy it.

It’s sad to see another beautiful Cougar leave the great Pacific Northwest but it is clearly going to a good home down south.

Steven, you guys need to slow down! Either that or adopt me. But at least now you each have one full G. :wink:

Glad to see such a nice car going to a good home. Congrats to everyone.

Congrats to you and Dennis. Great addition to the den.

Steven that’s so great to hear. Couldn’t have gone to a better caretaker! Cheers!

Jeff it’s funny that you say that about beautiful Cougars in the Pacific Northwest. I said as much to Jim when we spoke. I believe that per square mile you guys have some of the most beautiful Cougars. We were really excited to get this one.

Thanks for the kind words from everyone. I’m really glad to be part of this Community that Bill has created. There are many great guys and gals that share the Cougar passion. So Bill, here’s to you! :beerchug:

Holy crow…you win the lottery or something??? You keep adding cars like these, eventually, I’ll get you on the banner! LOL.

Congratulations to all three parties involved. Jim’s XR7-G looked to be an amazing car, and will certainly be the jewel of your collection. I’m glad it went to a good home where it will truly be enjoyed. I can’t wait to see what will be added to your collection next.

Congrats Dennis and Steven.

Wow, a crown jewel for part of your collection, but isn’t this a lot to pay for the next ride of the month? :smiley:

Holy Cow Stephen Great score! Jim is a class act for sure. I have been out of touch for a while.Please post more pictures.

CONGRATS!!!

Scott, what a cool old gas station.

Cougars, You can’t just have one. You two have a great set of XR-7 Gs now, as well as the S code. I always liked this one. Now I’ll have to come down to South Carolina to see it.

The old gas station, plus a huge car collection, is on the property of a guy near me. Fordnutz did a mystery cruise on July 1st (we do one every year) and this was one of the stops.

Congrats on the G purchase! Drive and enjoy…
