Do the xr7's have a lower production than the TC's ?

I seem to always find TC's for sale and this is the first cougar I've found

It needs work but its local and pretty cheap

Yes, they made more TC's than turbo XR7'S. There's an 86 5 speed about 2 hours from me, dark blue, rare color.

It's also light on the options, quite rare for a turbo.

Woah for 400 I would definitely snag it up
It actually doesn't look too bad, some cleaning up will go a long way on that car

It's going to need a fair amount of work to get roadworthy after sitting for 10 years.
