    My '79 Mercury Marquis *DUW*

    Well I have'nt been on much Beacuse I Moved into a house and didnt have the net for a bit..

    But anyway Just picked this up From a member of this site on the weekend. It was a trade type deal.. This car is really neat.

    Its a 1979 Mercury Marquis. It came factory without a vynle top, without air conditioning, and without opera lights. It also used to have manual windows, but the old owner converted it to power.
    Its got a 302 with a 2 bbl carb and C4 tranny.

    She needs a bit of love here and there but all in all is a great car.
    Now for the pics..

    that is sweet. What color is the steering wheel center cap. Silver or gold. Gold means it a black magic package i believe. Also if you need parts for it lots of stuff from my car can fit that. I would seriously trade you your woodgrain for my perfect woodgrain. I like the darker wood better. Only need the dash woodgrain. i got somewhere i can get 2 door woodgrain from a 1979.

                    Is there any story behind the gold plated hood ornament and head light surrounds?

                              Neat.

                              I really like those mirrors. Much better placement than the traditional box mirrors.
