Yeah, I'm chasing 2 1969 Cougar XR7 convertibles now, both with the same story, and have been sitting around for 10+ years. One is a 351W-4V, and 4 speed. The other is a 390-4V 4 speed car, both are really cool Cougars! I've made really good offers to buy them both, but the owners are just not ready to sell. The 351W is stored indoors at least, although it belongs to a lady that is a cat horder, and probably has 20+ cats, which live in the same garage! Talk about smell, I couldn't hardly stand a few minutes to be in the garage to look at the convertible last time I was there. Yuck. The 390 car is in another state, outdoors, and it sees a fair share of rain. No doubt that the floors are gone, and it might not be fixable as more time passes!
