Put me down as a yes. I have to see about getting the plates renewed/temp plates on the Mark. They expired about a year ago and I've only "driven" the car to move it around in the garage or wash it.

Exactly the type of information I was after! Thanks!

Thanks for the info and link, I appreciate it!

Hi Guys, I was looking at investing in a little equipment and products to clean up the paint on my cars and looking on the AutoGeek site, I'm out of my league. http://www.autogeek.net/exteriorcare.html I think I want to get a Porter Cable 7424 DA polisher but lost when it comes to the...

Very clean, good luck.

Definitely Sharon. My wife isn't much for cars or car talk so she declines anything involving car show, talking about cars..... :rolleyes: My daughter on the other hand, has the bug; she refers to the Mustang as her car. The boy is too young but does enjoy getting pushed in his little tots...

I agree on the looks. Mark VIII looks great, but it's up in years and with two small kids (car seats) the 4 door wins. And while it's not the looker the Mark is, the Lexus is butter smooth. I've had a Mustang and the Mark with their tighter suspension so long, I appreciate the ride on the...

It's been a while since I've actively posted on here but I still browse and add when I can. Haven't been doing much work on the Mark VIII but I still have it and still looks good. Could really use a wash since it's been in the garage all winter. That means I've got a new(er) daily driver...

Maybe.........:big-grin:

Happy Birthday!

I went with the Bilsteins, I didn't think the ride was much stiffer. Found a nice set on a Cobra forum from a guy that upgraded a low mileage set.

Came across your thread Beerdog, my Mark just failed emissions and I've been reading all about tuned Fords having this problem. I had the Mark tuned about 12 years ago, I guess I have to find a place to set it back to stock. I got lucky in 2013 that i took the test before Illinois updated their...

Thanks Sharon. Depending on what I do with the car, I will make stuff available here. I don't have much but maybe a set of wheels/tires, audio equipment, I have a drivers side headlight and maybe a few parts I'm not thinking about. I thought i would need to sell it after we had our first...

Thanks Lownslowlsc. The winter tires make a huge difference. My wife drove it a few times last winter in deep snow and she preferred driving it to her front wheel drive car. I can confidently throw into unshoveled parking spots in the city.

Thank you all for the input. I would prefer to sell it to someone in the community instead of having the dealer offer me low dollars AND send it to the crusher. I took a few shots before we got hit with a snow storm last week. You can really see the rust damage in the last picture; it hurts...
