    New owner from Miami,Florida.

    HI you guys. I've been since November in this forum and have ever since Liked it. It has helped me a lot with my car. Here is a car that I bought for $700.

    Was sold because it had a bad transmission, Supposedly. Fixed the tv bushing and it shifts finally. The tv cable was hold by a bolt. and I drove it like that was an idiot. Now fixed it with a bushing but will want to but a brass bushing.
    This forum helped me fix this car. Just need a bumper front left fender and paint. The car is like new inside. It came with A/c converted to r134a. The only thing is that I need to fix the odometer. If anyone can help me thank you.
    1992 Mercury Grand Marquis.

    Nice ride! There's a thread or two regarding odometer repairs on here somewhere.

      Thanks. I'll be sure to search for that tomorrow. I just need to know which things I need to buy.

          that third one down is the one my 93 needed for the odometer to work. It fits on the peg on the one below it. I didn't know about these sites at the time and fashioned one from a similar remote control car hobby shop gear. Had to grind it down and fill the center hole with some rod to make it all fit... but I think I only spent about $10 on it. Though the real gear would probably work better. Mine has a tick now since the gear teeth are not an exact match.

                Welcome!
                I just bought a set back in March from PATC.com. I spent $40 on the set, but they are the good ones that don't break. I figured it was worth it because I don't want to replace
                those again.
