Rare 68 427 Cougar hits over $100k on ebay

The only reason i would care is that my Dad's shop stripped and painted this car for its current owner. I dont know who's more excited the owner or my Dad

I looked it over when it was here, but hadnt seen it all put back together and with all the chrome and stuff. when it left the shop it was just nice shiny paint on black wheels.



we knew it was rare but not $100K rare! we were thinkin 40-60

Pretty nice but it's not perfect. That seems like a perfect price.

I know the 427 was super-rare, but I found a straight, complete 1967 390 Cougar GT driver here in Houston for $8K. Shoulda bought it, I guess... .

ripped seat and an oil leak? LOL 100k. I smell crack



That paint job is great but is that car worth 100k dollars, no way.



That first picture at the old mobil station is cool but the new H2 in the background killed it.

side oiler 427 with 3. 50 rear. plus the documented onwership and mileage. It was one of 77 made that year with the 3. 50 (open) rear end. 101 total for the year, 77 were open rear and 24 had lockers.



The ripped front seat is original to the car, hell my 2001 Dodge seat is already worn out. i'd hate to see it in 37 years



it truely was an all metal car too. i've seen it bare naked!

Dang! My cousin has a 69? maybe 68 that belonged to his dad. It has only been started once every month or two for the past 30 years. Its been under a sheet in their barn all this time. I have no idea what engine is in it though.
