Vehicle Description
SOLD - REALLY COOL AND RARE CAR HERE. HOW MANY S CODE 390 GT
COUGARS DID THEY MAKE? 5000 SOME AND THIS ONE IS 1 OF 41 IN THIS
PAINT AND TRIM CODE. IT IS ALL MATCHING BY DATE CODES WITH 73000
ACTUAL MILES. WHILE THE REPAINT FROM FAWN TO BROWN IS ABOUT 30 +
YEARS OLD IT IS STILL A NICE LOOKING DRIVER WITH EXCELLENT ORIGINAL
INTERIOR. THE BODY HAS ALWAYS BEEN VERY SOLID SINCE BEING GARAGE
STORED ALL ITS LIFE. OTHER OPTIONS IT CAME WITH ARE KELSEY HALES
POWER DISC BRAKES, POWER STEERING, TILT WHEEL, C6 AUTOMATIC, GT
STIFFER SUSPENSION, BUCKET SEATS AND CONSOLE. HEARING IT RUN YOU
RELIZE THE EXHAUST LEAK. THE HEADERS LEAK BECAUSE WARPED AT HEAD.
IT DON'T NEED REPLACED RIGHT AWAY BUT NEW HEADERS OR MANIFOLDS
WOULD TAKE CARE OF LEAKS. ALL ELSE GOOD. ( PLATES ON CAR CAN ONLY
GO TO BUYER IF HE LIVES IN OHIO. ) PAPER WORK: COMES WITH ORIGINAL
WINDOW STICKER, ORIG BUILD SHEET AND A MARTI REPORT TO BACK UP THE
OPTIONS AND RARITY. HAVE CLEAR TITLE SHOWING ACTUAL MILES. ALSO AN
OWNERS MANUEL. THE DRIVETRAIN: ENGINE WAS REBUILT ABOUT 5000 MILES
AGO WITH ADDED DUAL QUADS AND 427 FORD INTAKE. IT HAS A HI VOLUME
OIL PUMP, CLOYES DOUBLE ROLLER CHAIN, CRANE BLAZER RACE CAM, DUAL
POINT DISTRIBUTOR, STOCK PISTONS AND RODS, AND SHOULD BE 10 TO 1
COMPRESSION. SHE RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT BUT DOES HAVE LITTLE
HESITATION IN CARBS ON TAKE OFF. I THINK THE C6 TRANS IS STOCK AND
NEVER RBUILT. IT SHIFTS GOOD. THE CAR CAME WITH 3.25 NON POSI BUT
IT WAS CHANGED YEARS AGO TO 4.11 THEN LAST OWNER CHANGED TO 3.25
POSI NOW. BODY: ITS STRAIGHT AND SOLID. ONLY RUST REPAIRS WERE TO
THE REAR OF QUARTERS BEHIND WHEEL WELLS AND BOTTOM OF 1 FENDER.
THERE IS NOW A COUPLE BUBLES IN FRONT OF RIGHT REAR TIRE AND
SEVERAL ON LEFT. A COUPLE SMALL BUBBLES ON RIGHT DOOR CORNER.
REALLY NICE CAR AS IS. NO SHAME IN DRIVING THE WHEELS OFF HER IN
THIS CONDITION. THE TRUNK WAS COATED LATER BUT MERCURY USED AN
ASPHALT PAPER OVER THE TOP OF GAS TANK. THAT IS WHAT IS SEEN IN
PHOTO UNDER MAT. THE SEQUENTIAL TURN SIGNALS WORK. ONE HEADLIGHT U
HAVE TO PUSH UP ON HEADLIGHT DOOR TO OPEN. THAT 1 NEEDS A NEW VALVE
ON DOOR. WINDOWS AND DOORS WORK WELL. NOTE: I HAVE POSTED 91 PHOTOS
AND A SHORT VIDEO ON www.500classicauto.com . THE LAST 3 PHOTOS ARE
THE PAPER WORK THAT GOES WITH. DELIVERY AND FINANCE POSSIBLE. CALL
FO INFO.
