    Interesting. Looks like it's in pretty good condition.

    Yes, Peeps, I have a standing resolution to give my '79 GT a facelift. Came close back in January, but I just didn't have the money; and it was the color I needed inside and out! Then, a couple months later, another Cougar showed up, but unfortunately, the header panel was worn. But I've got my eyes open for one.

    I've seen one of these with an Elite front end and it looked pretty good.

    What would be cool? How about a front clip from a 77-79 T-Bird? Or maybe a 74-76 Cougar? or a cheapy Plain jane Torino with the full grille? The possibilities are endless!

    Those are all on www.ranchero.us, especially a Montego one, but yeah, it's all the same underneath, for the most part.
    I'll see if I have any to share from my laptop, or from the forum.
