    Cool sounding project!

    So what's gonna be the official title of the car? Mercury Marquis Brougham GT? MBGT now?

          Tom, out of curiosity, what happened to the quarter panel? The guy I sold my brown tudor to was parked at night town one night and got hit while he was inside. Now it has a smashed-in RH quarter. I was PISSED when I saw that... Maybe there's someone running around NW florida with a hatred for straight boxes...

            i made a promise to tom that the car will always be named GMGT regardless being transformed into a marquis brougham from grand marquis

            i have a set of 03 mustang cobra tips that i will use for the exhaust.

            and i did not find any license plates in the car tom...

            today, since it was pissing rain, i mocked the ford center caps on the wheels on the car and they look sweet! now i just need to swich the lug nuts and put em on. after work i will be starting to remove moldings and the vinyl roof if i get time. will try to snap pics

                                There will still be no blue ovals on that car!!!

                                And i'm indifferent on the centers. I ran chrome lugnuts, no centers, and black painted hubs for that reason.
