While this is not my daily driver, I do drive my 88 XR7 daily right now. This is from my 88 Project. I was backing it into the shop when the front wheel snapped.
The rest of the suspension is in really good shape. The car has sat outside the last 3 winters and All I can come up with is that water got in between the steel and the good ol' Canadian freeze/thaw cycle blew it apart. My daily driver will be coming into the shop after supper and be inspected.
So I left this morning with the rest of my Blue parts to see my new friend. The A-pillar and Door panels went to members here. Came home 5 hours later with a load of Red for the project
Lucky guy!!! There are practically none of these cars around me......
Here is the silly part. I use the big want add sites and forums. My brother keeps sending me Facebook Marketplace links. My Facebook had not been used in years. I was viewing on my wife's page. I had to relaunch my Facebook just to talk to the guy. Now all my former Ford Worker buddies have found me
The last pieces of that Blue interior have now found a home. Anyone in Ontario, Canada need 87-88 parts let me know. I think between the two of us, we can help
My project ended up having head gasket problems. I put it aside and worked on my other projects. In the mean time, this car was actually sold 3 times over with each guy backing out The last guy was a door knocker who saw it in the laneway. "I'll be back on Saturday with a flatbed" he said. Never saw him again So it's been hiding ever since. https://www.foxtbirdcougarforums.com/index.php?action=dlattach;sa=tmpattach;attach=post_tmp_6239_9eb21398eab539bafbe84ed99de4374a;topic=40946 Last fall I came across a very low mileage Crown Vic motor. Covid worked in my favor as the Crown Vic car would have sure been used as a derby car, if there was a derby in 2020.
