It’s been a long year… at the end of last year, we bought a new house and moved in. It’s been a hectic year and progress on the Cougar has stalled. The cougar is assembled and ready to go, but needs a tune, a decent clean up/wax, and a few parts painted.
Here’s my new garage to work in. We installed 6 extra lights, and a ceiling fan. The bench area is a total disaster, but it works and is getting more organized…
Here’s the current state of the engine.
As of today, I removed the rear tail lights and am getting ready to repaint the bumper. A proper paint job will have to wait, but for now, I need to make it look more presentable.
Hey Everyone, new update on the cougar. I have the cougar apart in the video because I am doing some re-wiring in the driver’s fender. The video below should be viewed in HD (1080p is best).
Check out the video of how I routed the cold side piping and the sound of the Cougar with the turbos attached. Pictures coming right after this. All the smoke is the header spray that is on the wrap. Claims to smoke off after 30 minutes, but it hasn’t been running that long.
Well, I’ve finally got some updates for the Cougar. I should have been taking some pictures of the whole process, but mainly it’s been spent welding and leak checking. I will hopefully have some new pictures here soon, but in the meantime I have a video.
Spent some time tonight working on organizing the tools for the Cougar project. Starting Friday, I have 2 full weeks off. There will be picture updates as work is completed. I hope to have the project mostly finished by December 29th.
