This classic Cougar's handsome styling is enhanced with a set of premium Scott Drake ten-spoke 15-inch wheels most notably seen on Shelby Mustangs of the period. These classic wheels have been fitted with B.F. Goodrich Radial T/A white lettered tires giving some extra sportiness to this Cougar.
The interior is in superb condition and is trimmed in Medium Brown with wood-grain accents on the dash and door panels. Some of the desirable interior features include factory bucket seats, console with floor shifter, tilt steering column, air conditioning, as well as Pioneer AM/FM/cassette player and an additional temperature gauge discretely under the dash.
