Charles: Good to know---thanks! Nice find with the 4-door Cougar; those are relatively rare. If I remember correctly, the 4-door model was phased out after model year 1978.

When I was trying to get trim parts for my 4-door LTD II Brougham, both 4-door LTD II's and Cougar's were just darn near impossible to find with decent pieces (hence I gave up after 5 years). On top of that, most of the LTD II's and Cougar's that were for sale did not have the trim that my Brougham needed (side moldings, rocker panels). [end of pent-up frustration :D ].

The bumpers are the Deluxe type and are primo. Glad that monkey is off my back. Thanx again, Charles
