1999 Cougar with a full body kit, running a 100 shot of nitrous, among tons of other mods... All the work was done by myself. The motor threw a rod right before I was going to trade it in - I guess that hitting the nitrous one last time wasn't such a good idea! Oops. There's a pic linked below;

Jvegas: Yeah - pretty sure. My 442 was a basic model with the 400 - 325 HP and 308 gears. It just wasn't that quick compared to the other stuff around at the time.

Thanks! I learned alot on that car... Did all the fiberglass work for molding the body kit myself, painted it myself, tore out the back seat and built a huge enclosure, and did more performance work to it than I can type in a short message. I don't have many pics of the car anymore, unfortunately, but here's one I have of the back seat area;

I was driving two vehicles on and off before I moved over to the X-Type. I was driving a 97 Nissan Altima, which I gave to the youngest son, and my lift 97 Ford Expedition.

Geez I have owned so many cars before my X..

6 different v8, 5spd Mustangs
1 Thunderbird
1 MkvII LSC
1 MkvIII
1 VW Shirocco
1 Monte Carlo SS
1 Dodge Dart Swinger v8
1 Saab 9000s

And I traded my 2001 Mazda MP3 in for my current 04 X-Type. It shares the driveway with my 09 Nissan Murano. My 87 Mustang Gt vert gets the garage since its a weekend/nice weather cruiser.

the immediate car previous to the jag was a 1998 Chevrolet Prizm. I'd say it has been quite an upgrade.
