I thought that I'd step in and say that I use to own a Cougar.
It was a 1970 model. It started life as a rental car in Illinois.
I bought it from a used car lot for a $1000. It had a 351W and 3sp. manual transmission. It was a very reliable car. On Thank's Giving Day 1978 I was involved in an accident in it. A friend of my Dad's said he could put it back as good as new, and he was right. I thought that as long as I was putting money in it why not do some modifying.
I pulled the 351W and installed an aluminum rodded 302 w/ 4bbl, header's, solid cam, 4.10 gear's. This killed the gas milage but it was a lot more fun to drive. I left the body alone. The 70 had very classic line's, and in 71 they ruined it, making it all the better.
