Interior Improvements - 1967-68 Mercury Cougar XR-7 

Looking sharp, I miss my 67

Thank you West Coast Cougars for this and your other excellent videos! Great upgrade tips!

Love the videos. Love the site. When you hear the phrase "....I know a guy...." ....he is one of those guys!

I love your channel, the cougar is my favorite Ford/Mercury product. Please don't stop doing what you do

Switching all incandescents to led really does help lower the amp draw overall on an old car. Excellent for older wiring

Thank you for the info, I can't think of anyone more knowledgeable on these cars.

Looks good. I wouldn't change the rear seat either in such good shape

Thanks nice job

Nice daily driver.

I like originality. To me, that's the most difficult to do. Customizing/bastardizing is easy.

When you mentioned about mirror mount glare where the units became black or satin finish , the early buick Riviera had a nice chromed dash panel but drivers complained about sun reflection that bothered the eye and made Buick go to a matte finish black .

I love watching your videos. I love the attention spent on absolute detail of every aspect of these classics. I am in the market to buy a Cougar, but in the meantime, can you recommend someone who has as much knowledge as you when it comes to Thunderbirds? I have a low mileage original 65 Bird I am doing a light restore on.

Thanx 4 all info and moore 👍 but how do i remove the center consol (armrest) and clock/stereo cluster under the dash? We have fiddled with it alot ,but don't want break it... Kind regards Dan @ Nifsta classic cars SWEDEN

Wish you guys could do 69/70 Mustangs parts too! There is no Don Rush equivalent for the Mustang world!

Do you have exhaust an full break line video

Can you do a more in depth video on the dismantling of the seatbelts? I have the same ones for my 67 mustang. And tried to rebuild them rather than buy new. A d destroyed them trying to take them apart. So frustrating!!!

Can you do a video on standard interior and dash

Two way tape won’t hold water & conduct across the two metal surfaces it spans causing corrosion?

I've got a gran torino and doing a restoration on it you can't find sheet metal for these car's and I've been all over the west finding part's and for it maybe some company that does this will start making these part's.

Do your repro passenger mirrors come with a FORD door template for accurate location ?

Your comment about 'Not quite a scam ' on the 'leather front and rear ' . There was a WW2 vet I worked with in the1980s who was very knowledgeable about Edsel,Ford and Lincoln of the late 1950s. Came up with fascinating stories,one of which was to use Ford tractor valves in Edsel motors for reliable miles. He also had some scathing words about the years Robert McNamara was running Ford. He stated that the people Mac hired and promoted in the late 1950s were exactly the clowns who came up with ideas that were not quite a scam. By the late 1970s and later,Ford did not seem to know the difference between customer as cash cow and customer as victim. Again and again I would meet people purchasing a new Ford product only to say about 2 years later, " next time it sure won't be a Ford" . Enraging new car owners is not a way to brand loyalty. Or long term car and truck sales. The senior decision makers of Ford were very good at divide and conquer with labour squabbles and similar,but they sure dropped the ball for many weary years when it came to building a product that included customer satisfaction. Certain modern stuff is wonderful,but you sure have to do lots of homework to know which is which. Cheers.

This wasn't equipped with comfort-weave vinyl?

I have a 68 with all original interior and I am wondering if it will devalue it if I redo the front seats?

Just found this am I am stoked ! Do you sell cougars? have had a half dozen 67 or 68s years ago and now I want a '68 xr7 project car

Do you have a "How to" video for reupholstering the seats?

Why are the accessory door sill plates no longer available?

Were the seat cushions modified at all to fit for the XR7 seat covers?

Can you use mustang interior on Cougars

Very Impressive WCCC... BUT ,,, Do You Have Original -Tire ... Valve ... Inserts??? I Need 4.. For My 68-71 Sam Gurney 423.. 3 spd

Oh man, the reproduction seat covers are so wrong. See how much extra padding is in the upper-middle seat backs in the originals? They look very luxurious and the new ones look skimpy. When I was looking to have my front seats upholstered, no one would do them like the factory seats, only like your seat covers.

Seriously Though WCCC I Had A 69 XR7. 428 CJ 4 Spd White With The Big Block Hood Scoop & CJ STRIPES Wish I Still Had It, You’re Probably The Most Knowledgeable. Cougar Guys Around.. Second Only To Me.. Seriously I Know A Lot Of Ford Stuff.. A Lot .. You’d Be Hard Pressed To Find A Better Ford Engine Guy. 302/351 . FE/ 385 Family. & I Know More About. Boss Motors Than Bunky Knutson.. There I’ve Said It .. Call Me If You’re. Ever In A Jam.. I’ll Shoot Ya. Straight Every Time.. PS. You Should. Take A Step Closer To The Razor Blade. Let Me Know , Ill. Help With That Too.. Shave & A Haircut,, 2 Bits... lol
