Hi Everyone!

A few months ago I bought a red Mark VIII with a tan felt top. I love the car - I am not one for attention, but as a college student it is something you don't see in the parking lot every day. I am from Michigan, but this Mark VIII has spent most of its life down in North Carolina from what the previous owner said to me, so it is rust free. I hope to have it for as long as I can... even though it is high mileage, these cars are truly a piece of art and super comfortable. I even get 27mpg on the expressway, which is super!

Unfortunately, there are a few minor issues with the car, and I joined this forum to hope to get some advice on how to deal with them. I am not great with cars, and neither is anyone in my family, so I don't have anyone to learn from. None the less, I am enthused to learn DIY fixes for my Mark VIII in the warm months this summer! Anyway, I look forward to talking with many of you about your experiences and why you got your Mark VIII.

Welcome to the forum!

We're no strangers to quirky, high-mileage cars. Just wait 'till Eric chimes in. I bet he's pushing 275k on his 5-speed car by now..

There's not much on there you can't fix yourself with some knowledge you'll find here. Feel free to make a list, and start asking questions. We're here to help!
