E-tek Restorations: '67 Cougar XR7
Hello Cougar Fans!
A long-time member here, Trent, is having me do some restoration work on his '67 XR7. It's a decent driver that he wants completely redone and renewed - as they all should be!

It's a clean driver, but there's some parts that will get my undivided attention!
This is looking up under the dask. Looks pretty good, but enough water leaked through here to ruin the floor...

After stripping/dismantling almost the entire car, Trent brought it to my shop yesterday on a flat deck. So happened the truck-operator that showed to his house was my next door neighbour - small world, especially around here!
Once inside, I took a good look at what I was starting on. All in all, a decent starting point for sure. There's a few obvious issues and it's been hit a couple times, but nothing that can't be remedied with knowlwdge, tools and time!
The owner wants it to be a show-driver, which is about my favourite kind of restoration. Aside from my usual attention to originality, he has also thought out some upgrades that will make it more drivable - and safe - for all involved. This includes front end structural upgrades as well as shoulder belts for the back seat - to keep his two little girls safe on cruise nights! My kind of guy.
In order to help save site bandwidth, that's all I'll put up for now. If you want lots more detail, check out the blog link below. Thanks!
