I just dont understand some of the cup holder choices Ford has made. My 1994 escort had two cup holders but were utterly useless as they were too...

Nothing like some turbines on a car. Looking good.

They of course fit without a sweat thanks guys. I couldn't get my 235 tires to work, found out they were cracked and dry rotted I should've looked at...

I haven't used the cupholders yet, but I did test fit a cup. The spring loaded arm is higher than the stock cupholder and should do a much better job...

I should put my extra for sale for $300... lol

I like the look and function of the upgraded cup holder. I also love how the finish is identical to stock and one would never know. Hopefully the...

Correct, not plug and play. It sounds and looks like you did the same thing I did but without making an adapter harness. The Blue/White wire from the...

Good idear there!

1997

The wire harness isn't PnP with the 03+ cupholder with -02. Had to remove one of the blue/white wires and tap it to get it to work on mine. Connector...

What year is the car again? I might have the EVTM/shop manuals that can show you the process. It's usually pretty simple.

Says it had a mustang engine. I am guessing seller means it has a mustang engine..though he may be unaware that mustang engines are extremely...

Yup, in the trash with those gawdy things. But, nice car indeed! Loaded with options too. Too bad it's a Mercury and not the Ferd version.

I've got these not perfect but better than nothing

They pop up every now and then on eBay but sellers think they have gold so hopefully someone here has them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Heavy rear sway bar. One of the best bangs for the buck.

There's various levels to a j-mod. The flow mod to get better flow and cooling to the torque converter is the main point. The shift firmness can be...

I never even considered mileage increasing. I live out in the country so it's not like I get much city time, though Floyd has "a" stop light. I...

Asking price is not the market price. I'm just sayin'........

And this is why I just glued the Coverlay ABS cap to the old cracked dash in the Mad Marquis.

+1 j-mod will help the trans shift firmer, get better flow through the torque converter, reduce wear on the clutches, and decrease parasitic loss a...

Can confirm. Years ago my wife had an '89 Town Car. Ran fine for years and then started fouling #8 once the valve seals went bad. Would foul that...

My uncle went through a divorce in 2006-07. He had one of these box birds. It was a nice car, well kept but not garage kept. He sold it for $200....

Seeing that, I wish I kept the 1980 TBird I had. Bought it for $400 in 1988. Nice car.

Oh, it is an early Panther. Grand1's '79 Marquis I'm pretty sure has the 302. C4 with 2.26 rear gear....

Ahh dang i was going to basically guess that. MCU gave away the VV, and the large case alternator basically means 351w.. Looks exactly how my engine...

Thanks, I would not have opted for the top but at least the color scheme works on this one. This was too good of a deal to pass up considering the...

Well, '79 is close enough. '81 LTD 351W vv2bbl, aod

This past summer I helped Grand1 get his newly acquired '79 Marquis running. Looks very much like his engine bay.

Yeah, I trimmed the photo to loose the fender & header though. Thought some here might like to see when fresh. I should have taken more pics of...

I’ve seen this photo from another site, so to answer would be cheating. :) Really cool you took pictures of it at the time though, since one would be...

Symptoms don't seem familiar to me. The only rattling I've experienced with both of my '91s is loose cat heatshields, but that's only noticeable...

just make sure the switch placement is high enough to clear any fixed part of the track.

I didn't notice anything in the engine. I may be wrong, I'm pretty sure it's the transmission (the Check Engine light went away after the TPS was...

It just takes some getting used to
