1968 Hertz Cougar XR7G

1968 Hertz Cougar XR7-G

Last Updated: July 5, 2024

This is a rare 1968 Cougar XR7-G specially design and built for Hertz as part of the Rent-a-Racer program. Only 188 of these cars were made for Hertz. This car has not run since the mid-70's, when it was impounded by the Camden, NJ police. It sat in the impound yard for years until the yard was cleared. The guy I bought it from pulled it from the salvage yard that claimed it from the impound yard.

Last Updated: July 29, 2020

Before I turned this car into the beauty you see here, it was crushed when a barn collapsed on it due to a heavy snow load. It was pretty rough before that having been found behind a barn in Addison, Vermont where the owner's brother used to ride it around in the cornfields.

This car is 1 of 508 cars that were produced for the Limited Edition 600 promotion in the NJ/PA area. They were produced in 2 special colors, Groovy Green and Flower Power Red. The previous owner pulled it out of a junkyard in New Jersey. He started to take it apart and realized it was too much work for him.

Last Updated: July 29, 2020

The 4.1 Liter Special was a regional promotion in Indiana. 150 cars were produced for the promotion. They came in red, yellow and orange. Only 25 sportsroofs came in orange. I spotted this car on Ebay in 2005, while it was still in Indiana. It sold to a guy in Long Island, and then was resold to a kid in New Jersey. I found it listed on Criag's List in 2015, which was when I purchased it.

A local Vermont car, this 1966 Chevelle SS Convertible lost its original 396 engine many years prior. When I got it, it had a 327-4speed. This was another rustoration project. I sold it to an insurance agent who happened to catch me putting the new carpets in it.

1963 Corvette Roadster

Last Updated: July 29, 2020

Still one of my favorite cars, this car was someone's incomplete project. Prior to dismantling it, it was vandalized in a barn where it was stored. When I finished the restoration on it, I sold it to buy land to build my house on. The last time, I ever saw it was on Christmas Eve 1991, when the new owner came to pick it up to surprise his wife.

78 Corvette

1978 25th Anniversary Covette

Last Updated: July 29, 2020

My father had bought this one, wrecked at an insurance auction. It was a theft recovery and was crashed into a guardrail. At the time the original nose had been replaced with a one piece repo nose. When I discoverd it was a 25th Anniversary edition I bought it on the spot. At the time I was lucky enough to locate an orignal nose and frame, so putting this car back on the road was rather simple.
