Up for auction at no reserve is this stunning '68 Cougar. This checks a lot of boxes, as Don Rush (owner of West Coast Classic Cougar) says. Low original miles (74,000), big block 390 FE power, XR-7 package, desirable color combination, and no rust. There's a lot to love here! Check out the video for more info, and see detailed photos and more info on the auction page here: bringatrailer....

Identical as the one we had loved the blue
Been looking for a car like this for a long time
It was a pleasure just listening to your vast knowledge.
The first car I bought was a 68 Cougar. I had a lot of fun with that car. It was a California car that was de-emissioned, and for a 302, ran great.
Is that a Canadian car?
I loves me sum early model Cougars. I don't know why, just think they are great and fun to drive.
bigger and better than todays "full" size car
Hi, i have a 68 xr7 302 4v cougar in the uk, how can i make it handle and steer better? We have replaced the shocks and lowered it, but apart from that is stock.
Check out West Coast Classic Cougar! They have some good videos on the subjects of steering and suspension. The one-piece shock tower "export" brace is a must. The steering is never going to be very precise, but you can improve it by adjusting the steering box (or rebuilding it) and making sure all the steering components are tight.
@@flyingaphoto thanks for the info,
You can’t lol
Knowing the propensity of rust forming under any vinyl top, I question the wisdom of putting a new vinyl top on an otherwise rustfree body.
Having owned a ‘68 XR7 GTE 427 back in the day , I’m well aware of the fun and not so much fun of these cars.
Personally , I would prefer a clean small block resto mod . These cars, especially big blocks were in dire need of some serious brakes and suspension .
But that’s just me , an old car nut.
