Would you buy this Cougar?

I Just saw this 1969 Cougar convertible listed on eBay : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TITLED-CALIFORNIA-1968-NO-RESERVE-AUCTION-/170723714094

The description tells that it is titled as a 68 Cougar, but unless I decoded the numbers wrong the VIN 7R01C217324 belongs to a 1967 San Jose built Mustang 2 dr. Hardtop with a 289 engine. :liar:

If someone needed a new identity to a 69 Cougar it should have been possible to do better than this?

Gry, you have decoded the VIN right. I personally wouldn’t buy that car with that title (Mustang VIN with incorrect year and make). Even in the ebay ad it’s listed as a '69 Cougar. John

The thing to do is report it as misrepresentation.

I would not buy it with that title but I would report it to ebay. This Cougar was listed earlier this year with the same title issues and pictures. I think a thread just like this was posted on MC.net during the first sale listing. The seller rates a zero in my book :thumbdown:

Reported. Because I can be a dick sometimes.

X2 to save some poor person who knows little about cats !
