my brother's got a '68 cougar. it's not in real good shape, but he could probably take home a prize at a ford show in "other than mustang" category. he brought his '71 pantera (not in great shape) to the last ford show around here and brought home 3rd in "other than mustang" out of four cars that weren't 'stangs or cougars. he's also got a '68 fastback 'stang and a '65 with '82 supra suspension and brakes (the suprang, as seen on spkorb.org) he has too much money and not enough time. i'm the opposite.
i still like my firebird the best, but his cougar comes in a close second of all the cars in the driveway. the neighborhood kids only notice the firebird-"can we have the purple car?" i like not having a camaro. i like not having a mustang. if i had a pantera, i'd sell it, and buy a cvtbl firebird with all the trimmin's.
