Red 88 XR7 Reply #16 – February 24, 2014, 12:17:00 AM One would think that with 72k the suspension bushings and ball joints should be in really good shape on that Cougar. I would be worried about how good the tires are and how much brake pad life it had left before driving it several hundred miles. Quote Selected
Red 88 XR7 Reply #17 – February 24, 2014, 02:36:56 AM Did you reply to the wrong thread? Just judging by the hole in the floormat id guess well over 100k. maybe 150ish. Quote Selected

Just judging by the hole in the floormat id guess well over 100k. maybe 150ish.I just got the mileage from that 87 XR7 stuck in my head. Yeah with the floor mat wear this thing has to have about 100k or so. Suspension should be ok at that mileage. The bushings might be worn but I would think they would be serviceable. Quote Selected

Both doors rusted out at the bottom both rear quarters have rust and there is bondo in other areas.what was the asking price out of curiosity? You should show him my car that i picked up for 2K, with 72k miles. Almost perfect, and not a pinhole of rust, and show him what the market bears on these cars. Maybe he will drop his numbers.......

Red 88 XR7 Reply #26 – March 08, 2014, 02:20:04 PM When I got mine they were both still good. Car had about 150 k on it when I got it. Lasted a few more years.... Quote Selected
