Fred got to see it in person. I totally respect his findings. Sounds like a lot of work. The accent stripe even though indicated on the Marti may or may not have been applied at the factory. Stuff happens. The real interesting stuff is the paint. Witness lines are gone on the scoops. It...

Then there is me. I build them for performance and beat the doody out of them!! But take care of them like few people do!! Rob

I will!!!

Thanks Scott!

Below is a kit from CJ Pony Parts. I do not know how it works. My guess is you could go to West Coast Classic Cougars and get the proper rear wiring harnesses to convert you car. They know their stuff. Rob...

Back From A Long Sleep, We are in the middle of a huge kitchen/living/dining room re-model! Going great!! Below are pics of my latest restoration. Sorry not a GT/CS, but a 1969 Cougar Vert. XR7 package which means leather interior. 390 "S" Code engine and a 4 speed. This combination is a...

Bassman, I would drive the doody out of that car!! That is what I do with mine. You do remember that Neil's latest restoration is the one you had that I looked at for him? Your car is way cool and should be a fun car to drive!!! Rob

Had them in my GNS possible GT/CS. Makes a huge difference in the power draw through the blinker switch that are prone to failure when they power 8 old style bulbs. Way less power draw and preserving that fun to R&R blinker switch. Just put them in a 69 Cougar with sequential tail lights...

Check it out!!! Lots of power!! https://www.fordnxt.com/features/sema-coverage/sema-2019-procharger-shows-off-fireball-carb-legal-boost/

Love the last pic of the underside with the rubber "patch" line on the fuel line right next to the exhaust!!

If you have the J Code 4V heads they will probably hurt performance. The J code heads have small (53CC) combustion chambers that increase compression. The E7 heads do not flow much better than a stock 2V head. The power that the 94 GT gained is a result of roller technology and better exhaust...

IMO you will not devalue your car in the least to add some ponies. Unless it is a concurs car. Modifications that are easily reversed do not de-value it and IMO enhance its value. Many cars on this site have Cobra dress kits and chrome air cleaners. The key to more power is the heads and...

If the first rebuild was competent, I doubt that it has many miles on it and the .030 overbore "should" clean up fine. More than likely you can reuse the pistons. Have a competent shop boil out the block, and install fresh rings and bearings after the crank is inspected. Have the heads...

Here is the Marti Report. 15 February build date. Early car. Rob

Early recessed reflector car. Wonder what the VIN number is?? Rob

Personally I prefer the Marchal look. They sit more centered in the grill mount area up and down. Marchal's look more like a factory installation IMO. I always felt the Lucas fog light looks more like an "ad on" back in the day. I put a round fog light set on my first Mustang, a 1967...

YOU DA MAN!!!!!! Dad! Love the way it looks!! You should keep this one!! Rob

Other clues about your car and engine are Sheetmetal stamping and cast date codes if you are interested. They should all pre date your build date. The engine block cast date is above the starter. There are cast dates in the rocker arm area on the top of the heads. You need to remove the...

In my experience they are very rough looking. Yours looks just fine. I would be more suspicious if it was very pretty! Rob

Dave, His third book had a bunch more pics or the debut and in color. I thought there was a gold one in one of the shots. I may be mistaken. Rob
