1972 MERCURY COUGAR COBRA JET, 4 SPEED, 3.50 TRACTION-LOK REAR END "RARE FIND"

1972 Mercury Cougar XR7 Additional Info:

OK, WHAT WE HAVE FOR AUCTION HERE IS A 1972 MERCURY COUGAR WITH A 351 COBRA JET MOTOR TEAMED WITH A 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION AND A 3:50 TRACTION-LOK REAR END. THIS IS A ONE OWNER AND 100% UNMOLESTED CALIFORNIA CAR. EVEN THE SEQUENTIAL REAR BLINKERS STILL WORK. ALL GLASS IS GOOD. UNDERNEATH IS DRY AND RUST FREE AS ONE COULD IMAGINE. IT HASN'T HAD ONE MODIFICATION AT ALL. IT STILL HAS ALL THE FACTORY HOSES AND CLAMPS. THE EXHAUST IS ORIGINAL TO THIS CAR. IT STILL HAS THE STICKER ON REAR LICENSE PLATE HOLDER TELLING DEALER HOW TO REMOVE TIE DOWNS. LEFT REAR GLASS STILL HAS ORIGINAL EMISSIONS STICKER INTACT. INTERIOR IS IN GREAT SHAPE OTHER THAN NEEDING A DASH PAD. IT HAS THE ORIGINAL HUBCAPS AND STILL HAS BIAS PLY TIRES ON IT. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN STORAGE SINCE 1985. WE POURED A LITTLE GAS IN CARB AND MOTOR STARTED RIGHT UP. ONLY RAN IT FOR A FEW SECONDS. IT DIDN'T SMOKE NOR MAKE ANY STRANGE NOISES. IT COMES WITH A MARTI REPORT THAT SHOWS ALL ONE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT CAR. AS YOU CAN SEE THE BUMPER HAS A DENT AND ROOF NEEDS A TOUCH OF HELP WHERE CONDENSATION GOT UNDER VINYL ON ROOF BUT HEADLINER IS 100% GOOD. OTHER THAN THAT THIS CAR IS EVERYTHING ONE WOULD BE LOOKING FOR IF HE/SHE IS INTO RARE COUGARS. I WILL ANSWER ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS CAR AND ANYBODY THAT WANTS TO SEE AND INSPECT BEFORE HAND IS ENCOURAGED TO DO SO. THIS CAR WILL START AT A PRICE I'M WILLING TO SELL IT FOR AND IF IT GETS ONLY ONE BID THEN IT WILL SELL TO THAT BIDDER. IF IT DOESN'T GET A BID IT WON'T BE BACK AS I'LL DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE BACKGROUND OF ONE OF THE PICS I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF A FRAME OFF RESTORATION ON A 1986 GRAND WAGONEER. I KNOW THIS CAR IS RARE BUT JUST DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS PROJECT RIGHT NOW BUT DON'T HAVE TO SELL SO IF I DON'T GET A FAIR PRICE THE CAR ISN'T FOR SALE. ALL I CAN SAY IS YOU WON'T FIND A BETTER UNMOLESTED 1972 COUGAR ANYWHERE ANYTIME THAN THIS ONE. WITH THIS SAID I A $500 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT VIA PAYPAL DUE WITHIN 24 HRS OF AUCTION CLOSE AND REMAINDER PAID AND CAR PICKED UP WITHIN 7 DAYS OF AUCTION CLOSE. REMEMBER THAT FIRST BID GETS (JUST WEEDING OUT TIRES KICKERS IS ALL) IT IF THAT'S THE ONLY BID AND WHOMEVER GETS THIS CAR WILL BE GLAD THEY DID. THANKS FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK!
