67 Cougar

This car is a labor of love. The owner’s parents bought the car and she remembers it from her childhood. She always wanted to drive it, but never got a chance. It has been off the road since the early 90’s. She has finally been given the car by her father and decided it’s time to bring it back to life. This is a major restoration project. The car has copious rust and many critters have called it their home. Mice nests everywhere, an ant farm under the driver side carpet, some sort of larger animal had built a home under the hood. The car needs a lot, but it has begun it’s journey.

Update:

We worked out an agreement with the owner that she pays a certain amount a month and we work to that. We’ve been going in spurts. She pays monthly until there’s a bit of a reserve and then we work hard on it until depleted, or in the last case, make a huge parts order and work a bit. Metal work has progressed a bit, everything black is new steel.
