Mercury XR7

1971 COUGAR XR 7 CONVERTIBLE -RARE--- AMERICAN ICON MUSCLE CAR --- this XR 7 has beautiful body lines and a factory designed low rake windshield that almost looks custom . the side profile . ith the fat rear fenders really give this car serious attitude! and makes it look kind of like a 71 cuda convertible ( to me anyway ).

the 1971 mercury cougar XR 7 shared the same performance engine and drive line with the 1971 mach 1 mustangs . in fact the convertible top and windshield . motor and drive train. nd most of the interior. are interchangable with the 71 mustang mach 1 convertibles. only 1700 cougar XR 7 s were ever produced in 1971 and not many of those survived over the past 42 years. only a half dozen or so came new with the factory metallic blue paint . ike this car did. somehow the avacado and mustard yellow cars just dont have the same visual impact and appeal as this car has with its beautiful metallic blue paint . this one needs a little bit of cosmetic work here and there but is in really very nice condition overall . . true xr 7 s came loaded with every option offered in 1971 . PS. PB. A/C .
