What a nice original Cougar this is! One repaint years ago in it's original color of Medium Gold Metallic, and it shows very nicely.
The interior is original down to the carpeting, door panels, and dash. The dash panel is excellent with easy to read clear original gauges.
The fact is, this Cougar has 89,836 original miles and is a 2-owner car! I have some nice documentation that follows the mileage so you can tell it's original miles.
This is an excellently maintained 1969 Cougar that has been very well cared for throughout it's 50 year existence.
Always a Pacific Northwest car, specifically Oregon, so there is no rust on or under this Cougar.. Take a look at the undercarriage any you'll see that this well preserved, although not detailed, but very clean and dry chassis which speaks to it's meticulous care.
This particular Cougar drives nice and tight with power steering, and because it's been kept completely stock and not modified it drives just about like it would have when it was new.
Take note of the original Oregon license plate. Not just an original license plate, but the actual license plate that was issued to this Cougar from day 1!
Just a small example of what I mean when I speak to the originality, and dedicated ownership of this car.
There's nothing like owning a classic car that you can drive anywhere, ant time, have all accessories function properly, and feel comfortable in.
that last line may just be the best way to describe this '69 Cougar!
