1975 Mercury Cougar xr7 review from North America
"Provides a fun ride for a Friday night cruise."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have replaced both universal joints.
I have replaced the transmission pan
gasket.
I have replaced the blower motor and
blower wheel.
General comments?
This is a fun weekend cruiser, but not an
everyday driver. The seats are fairly comfortable, and they seem to have held up pretty well over the years. the car performs well, but defiantly not a racer.
The car sits in my garage most of the time due to the 460's love for fuel, but it never fails to start, or to get me where I am going.
