    The Merk and the Other Silver Ford

    Ive been playing with the new car all week fixing its little quirks but I havent forgotten about GMN, its better than the ford probe forum Ive been looking at for info. Anyway I took some pictures of both cars. The mercury is pretty much finished, things are painted, wheels look good. But I can only keep one car and shes going up for sale as long as the probe is reliable.

    NoOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!

    You car is awesome man. Get a car cover and convince your parent's to keep it for you. Heck get a car port for it as well. That way when you get back home for the summer you still have your baby.

      Dont even think about selling the box. I'm with blaze, keep it somewhere but trust me, you are really gonna regret selling your box.

        I definitely wouldn't sell the box. Probes in decent shape are a dime a dozen. It may deliver some thrills and great gas mileage, but it's still not the same as box.

          You may talk about sellnig the box, but realize that NO OTHER CAR comes close.

          Been there, done that. I can't get into another type of car, no matter how hard I try.

                  Im not trying hard to sell it... Im still driving it for now because I havent finished up the paper work on the probe.

                  I posted that picture of it on the probe forums and they all gave me compliments on it too.

                  And yes it is a 24v V6, and it takes up every inch of the engine bay. lol

                      I have the original steel wheels but no tires on them, and they are 15's. But if anyone is interested I can bring them to scottfest.
