                If its still there try and grab the grill if anything it would make for a cool wall ornament.

                And I was also about to say that that must have been a Mexican one because the Mercury's there were sold under the ford name, do they still do that over there?

                  sorry for the late reply guys, just got home from work,...oh and yes, they still are rare even tough they were sold here, i'll go this sunday and take some stuff,...hope it hasn't got crushed yet.

                  They're still selling the Marquis under the Ford name, but they're also selling the Crown Vic, but to get one the Ford dealer has to Import it, so its a lot cheaper to just buy a Marquis , down here some Federal Police cruisers are imported Interceptors

                  On the Frontier States with the U.S. it's more rare to see these tipe of cars (Ford Marquis) because it's cheaper to buy an imported car from the U.S. than to buy a National (Dealer sold) car.

                  I'll get you guys more pics I promise

                        hello guys i went junkyarding on sunday and unfortunately the panther got crushed , i'm gona have to get more info for the conquistador since down here there where many variations of diferent Ford models, somebody told me that the Ford Conquistador was made in Venezuela but i have never seen one here. I'm gona have to do some research Tiggie along with more pics from the junkyard, unfortunately i left my camera at my GF's house and i don't see her 'till Saturday.

                        Hope my post doesn't get moved , i'll keep posting pics on this thread to share some forgotten panthers and info.

                              lol... i go so often the guys at the yard already know me by name lol. To think of it, there was a company that striped VW bugs and exported them to te U.S. as kit cars don't know if they still do that.
