The 87 was the only one that was "rusted out junk". The body was really bad, and the frame was twisted like 10 different ways. The car was totalled years before I got it. The frame wasn't fixed. The whole passenger side was replaced, including rear 1/4 panel. It was way off because of the way the frame was bent. The rear axle also wasn;t original. It should have had a K code, but had a 3.08 open.
The amusing thing is that it stopped better than the other 2 cars I had. The big rear drums make a huge difference. It was an awesome car, just not worth fixing after the trans went out for the second time.
The 91 was wrecked and wasn't fixed quite right, the passenger side kinda sat lower than the driver side. Really was wierd to drive. Was a clean car though. Good shape. Got horrid milage though.
The 89 was perfect, couldn't stop worth a shit though. That was the end of it. I rear ended a nissan pickup and totalled it. Never was right after that. The electrical system got really messed up and I never got it to charge after that.
Here are some shorts of the 87...

I shoulda kept the Marq. It was a $500 car that was darn reliable and a comfy car to drive. I just didn't like the MPG it was getting. That's why I bought the pro. Oh well, I got the wagon now! And it's awesome!Builder/Owner of Badass Panther Wagons
