We will start off with the exterior of this Cougar. As we can see all the body lines flow beautiful on this '72 from front to back. It has great fit of all the panels with gaps also being very nice. Everything is covered in the Medium Goldenrod paint that is the factory option and still sports a beautiful finish. It also sprots the factory optioned Tan Vinyl top that is still in great condition along with all the trim that surrounds it. The rest of the trim is all beautiful and both the front and rear bumpers have been professional rechromed. Up front we can see that all the grill and headlight bezels are in excellent condition for their age. Out back you'll notice it has a great fir on the trunk with all the gaps being every and symmetrical. All the glass in this '72 is also in phenomenal condition as it shows to have always been well cared for. To finish off the look it's sitting on a set of American Racing wheels with new tires.
Next, we will look at the interior of this XR7. On the inside it's all done in the factory Ginger Leather & Vinyl combo with much of it appearing to be original and stunning. It features the front bucket seats and rear bench seat along with having the mini center console that houses the automatic shifter. All the seat covers are in phenomenal condition for their age with the driver seat showing a little more wear than the rest. Both door panels appear original and have some wear on the arm rest part. Looking at the dahs we can see it also looks to be original and has a great fit of the pad with some cracks and splits. The gauges are all very nice and feature the wood grain accent that tie in perfectly to the original steering wheel. All the carpet has a great fit is very nice as well along with all the headliner and visors. Inside the trunk is all solid and we can see it has the factory liner and comes with the spare as well.
Finally, we will get to the driveline of this Mercury. Under the hood it's powered by the original 351 V8 engine that's setup with the factory 2-barrel intake. It's dressed out in the factory air cleaner along with having the factory valve covers. This Cougar is set up with Factory Air Conditioning along with having Power Steering and Power Brakes with Disc Brakes on the Front. The 351 engine is mated to the original FMX Automatic Transmission and the stock rear end with 2.75 Gears. When we look under this '72 we can see that it's in very nice condition from front to back and doesn't show any signs of major accidents or abuse. All the fuel lines and brake lines are in good condition as well. On the highway it runs out and drives great as the engine performs excellent and the transmission shifts out smooth. Don't miss out on your chance to cruise back in time with this classic Cougar.
