1977 Mercury Cougar XR7 - Overall Excellent Condition with Very Low Miles

This car is a time capsule (36 years old)  in beautiful brown with matching vinyl top and hounds tooth (brown and white) interior.  It features the distinct styling (new for 1977) and the 351 V8 auto transmission.  The car is extremely clean and the odometer shows 3500 miles.  I believe that this could either be 3500 original miles or 103500 - based upon condition of the car and paperwork, I think it is 3500..  But I have paperwork that shows new tires in June 2007 with 1,942 miles.  So either way, this car has not been driven much.  The previous owner was elderly and said it was used mostly for car shows.  Comes with original owners manual, sales brochures and some paperwork (such as the new tires purchased in 2007 about 1,500 miles ago).

I took many pictures because I wanted to show all potential buyers everything about the car.  There is no rust, dents or dings anywhere on the car - even the pinstripe is in very good condition.  If you have any questions or would like to see the car (it is located in Central Oregon), please call me at 541.390.0456.  Would like to keep, but need money for other projects.

Everything about the car is in near perfect and showroom condition, with several exceptions (as shown in the pictures).  These are:  clock stopped working, light stain on driver seat (it looks more like a dark shadow, but I have not tried to clean it), light scratches (three on the trunk lid where a garage light bulb fell), small cracked plastic in the back seat above each back window.  Other than that, everything on the car is in perfect working condition and looks great.  All of the glass is also in perfect condition.  The tires have very low miles on them (about 1,500) and the wheels still shine like new. The pictures show everything, including the tires and all trim.  Call if you have any questions.

Even up very close, the car is beautiful and has been maintained very well.  It drives very smooth and quiet.  Everything except the items mentioned above are flawless.  The car has been checked by a mechanic and found to be very sound.  I would personally drive this car anywhere and it is a perfect example of a 1970s luxury car, except it does not have the power items such as windows, door locks or seats, which are prone to not working.

The reserve and buy it now price on the car is low and it will only appreciate in value being in excellent condition with low miles.
