Aanvankelijk ontwikkeld als een luxe variant van de Mustang. De Cougar had een uniek carrosserieontwerp, hoewel nog steeds met de bekende proporties van de Mustang namelijk: ‘lange motorkap, korte kofferbak’. Het XR-7 model had extra opties zoals een ‘ Cherry wood grain’ dashboard met extra meters, racing style buitenspiegels, 3-spaaks stuur, Hi-back Bucket leather seats, schijfremmen voor, T-bar shifter op de middenconsole en speciale wieldoppen.
Deze XR-7 Convertible is nieuw geleverd met een 351cu.i. V8. De motor is vervangen voor een 351C crate engine gebouwd door Tuff Dwags. Een hoogwaardige upgrade voor Mustang/Cougar met 425 pk bij 5.750 tpm, 10:1 compressie, CompCam nokkenas, aluminium koppen, geheel gebalanceerd etc, verdere specificaties van deze motor zijn beschikbaar. Een vergelijkbaar motorblok kost tegenwoordig al gauw $ 15.000,-. Dit fantastische motorblok is gekoppeld aan de oersterke Ford C-6 automaat. Voorzien van headers en dubbel RVS uitlaatsysteem. Impco LPG-installatie met speciale Impco carburateur (C1-30). Goed in de lak, mooi chroom, nieuw zwart vinyl cabriokap (elektrisch bediend), nieuwe rubbers, fraai lederen XR-7 interieur. Ook van onder is deze Mercury keurig, roest- en schadevrij. Verder voorzien van rem- en stuurbekrachtiging. Marti-report aanwezig. Kortom een supergave XR-7 cabriolet in uitstekende staat! Nederlands kenteken.
