:cool: well hello there !!

new to the x members site.

been around for a couple of years, so prolly met many of you guys at some stage or other.

i belong to a '71 cougar, when i bought it, it was orange, having been green, and matt black at some stage in it's life !

after an incident in a car park, when it was victim of a hit & run, :mad:
i couldn't match the colour, so decided on fiat broom yellow.

painted it myself in a council lock up, a foot bigger than the car !!

not 100& happy with the job, but it'll do for now.

modifications ?

msd coil, converted to breakerless ignition. custom made headers with true dual exhausts. camshaft of unknown duration ! air shocks on the rear. halogen converted headlights with angel eyes.
de-locked, and de-handled.
there's probably more, but i'm boring myself !! :rolleyes:

future plans ?

the doors are knackered, so i can't do much until i source a good pair of doors, after that, the car is fairly solid, so a bare metal respray is in order when i get a decent garage !!

click the link in my sig if you wanna see pics.

guess i'll see you all at the "summer" shows, and cruises.

remember the cruise/meet in edinburgh this saturday night (27th) 7pm ish at kfc craigleith.
full details are on the ill eagles site.

Think that's the same Cougar I saw on Ebay a few years back.. I had intended to acquire it and re-build it with a NASCAR look, but discovered a gem of a vette at a very reasonable price and never looked back! :cool:
