    Newbie from the north

    Just found the site. I bought my first 91 grand marquis spring of 2013. Engine started knockin in 1 month. Found another car same color just a little older 89. Bought it and it ran like a top. About a month after the purchase of that car a suv pulled out in front of me and I rammed it and got its passenger door and front wheel pushed in. Grand marq needs body work and grill Now Im in the process of swapping engines. If I didn' like the cars so much I would have just said F it and sold em for scrap.

      Welcome!
      You've come to the right place, plenty of helpful people here that can help with questions you have while putting these cars back together. Some may even be able to help you track down any "hard to find" parts if needed.

                        Welcome! Great to see another member from Canada. Good call on using the good engine/trans from the crash car in the good shell. They can't always be saved, but their guts can live on!

                          No anti-rejection drugs needed. Heart transplants on "boxes" just take brut strength and awkwardness!
