    Recently Acquired 2DR MGM..

    Hello, I have just purchased a 1987 2door Grand Marquis. It is a great car; sharp as a pin and smooth as sand. The previous owner kept it in amazing shape. He claims it was a senior citizen's car before him. Within these few weeks of owning it I have fell in love with it as it has replaced my MM for daily driving duties. Included is a couple of showcase pictures. I will try to get some more of the interior. I have some big plans for it such as HO conversion and slick top conversion. Can someone tell me if the headlight door/cover for the '79 Grand Marquis will fit over the 87 headlights? I am a fan of the hideaway lights.And now I present to you...





    Time to draw 401K DTR


    P.S.:More to come soon.....

      Nope, never exist!!! Your GM's front end are the same from '79 to '87.

        Excuse me. I meant the headlight door/covers from the 74-78 Grand Marquis or would it be better to use a pair of Lincoln Continental headlight covers from the "box" years similar to yours, Jason_MarkVI? Thanks

          The headlight doors would take a good deal of fabrication, but anything can fit with a big enough hammer!

                              Thanks for all the compliments and greetings. This is a great community of enthusiasts. I am a very happy man with my mercury vehicles. I've been trying to research some things I should check out or replace. The main thing I've heard everyone talking about is the TV cable/grommet. Any other suggestions?
                              P.S. I'm no automotive tech so I need the dummy detailed answers...Thanks
