Classic Car for sale -- 1968 Mercury Cougar. A hard car to part with! 302 engine runs great. Automatic transmission. This cat has a rare, "California-style" front bench seat. Lots of work done in the past several years to ensure this car is in top running form -- including brakes, transmission, carburetor, fuel lines, fuel tank, and some electrical. Interior is in good condition. Also, I had some body work done a few years ago before I had it painted. Superb lines, no rust. Moving out of state and need to sell. Must see it to appreciate. Serious offers considered. Cash or certified funds.

Now it works. That doesn't look like a bad deal assuming it's not a rust bucket. Look it over really good underneath. Looks like the rear springs are worn out.

Belongs to a club member. I haven't seen the car in person, though.

I would snag it quickly, as long as it doesn't have rust issues. I kinda like the bench seat
