I Guess It's Official...

[Mike]

I'm a Cougar owner again! :biggrin:

I picked up Massiv's car this afternoon. It's definitely no slouch. It accelerates... well... it's pretty F'n fast! So far it's lived up to the hype... but I only drove it 15KM. :rofl:

I just wanted to share that. I guess I should get some work done now...

[Moraki]

Congrats!

Allthough I'm not a big fan of the black, and still think you belong in a Spruce, welcome back man! You know I'm happy about it. Step 2....track that *****.

[Mike]

I'm gonna take her for a nice drive tonight. I can't wait. :biggrin:

[Massiv]

Wow... those are pretty good for cell phone pics! Clear enough to show the clean blackness... Grainy enough to hide any imperfections. ;)

I still think you should throw a new BAT Euro Handling kit on it, and maybe swap out the spherical rod-end end-links for rubber ones over the winter. Swap those parts + alignment, and it will be astounding again in the handling department. Oh yeah, and weld in those subframe connectors, and rear strut tower brace (give you those soon)... Maybe do a Motorvac at CT to clean her out (although I did some serious cleans with MOPAR CC cleaner), and and and... :D

Massiv.

Sounds like you miss it already Dan.

I'm just glad it's not in Ottawa.

Yes, yes you did!

[Mike]

Just got back from my first 'real' drive. One word describes it... WOW! :eek:

I just can't believe how quick it actually is. I've never been in another Cougar that's felt like this. It's insane!

I had Dan (Hamill) on the phone while I was driving around... I must have sounded like a moron. I was all giddy! :rofl:

I'm really, very impressed.

Moron....no...giddy....VERY.

Car sounds very throaty/torquey on the phone. getting the play by play on the speedo was funny....I've driven in Pierre's and jjennings 3.0L's so it will be interesting to see/feel what this thing is like.

[ND4SPD]

so it was worth every penny of $6000 eh? :goofy:

[Zman]

That's awesome Mike! Glad to see you in a Cougar again.

Uh... HELL YES!

:rofl:

[ND4SPD]

Its a funny thing that... back in 2003, my bill at the bodyshop for the kit, and full paintjob came close to $5000 :rofl:

You essentially got a cougar with a free 'uber-sport' package.... OR... all the major performance mods you could want + a free cougar :tongue:



Oh - and it looks like I may be down in the Toronto area mid-november visiting a buddy of mine - I'll find out more later... maybe I can swing by for a few hours to see ya (.......okay... see the CAR. :biggrin: lol)

That's a good way to look at it. :rofl:

Either way, it's win-win. ;)

:rofl:

Glad you're enjoying it... a little suspension rework to replace the tired stuff, and you're all set.

Massiv.
