We've always felt that the first generation Cougar is one of the most under-appreciated muscle/pony cars of the late 60's. It's a more luxurious option to the Mustang and has wonderful proportions. We think this car could look very interesting if done in a pro-touring style with some classic Japanese car influences like bolt on fender flares and matte black Panasport type wheels. In our opinion, this car shares a similar silhouette and body lines to the Hakosuka Skyline. This particular car looks like a good base for a crazy(ridiculous) project like the one we have envisioned or is perfect for a loving restoration. Find it here, in the San Gabrial Valley, CA, for $5,500.

We've spent a lot of time praising South Pasadena for having high high quality and impossibly rare cars such as the 300SL Gullwing, and a trio of orignal Shelby Cobra Roadster, but the quality of custom cars is really what blew our minds.
