    I hope the color is off on the interior shot, that can't be a green interior with that exterior color combo can it?

    It is off, but as gold is a neutral color, any of the three primary colors would've worked on the interior. Even if the paint was brown, it would still work with primary-colored interiors.

    ??? The three primary colors being red, blue, and yellow? The brown/cream or plain white or plain black would work well with that exterior color but I don't know about the primary colors.
    The 74 and 75 Cougar XR7's are among my favorite 70's cars for styling, and the interiors are first rate especially with the upholstery covered instrument panel faceplate.

    I was only responding to the comment that the interior might've been green. I wasn't saying the car did have a green interior.
