    I know what you mean. I was 16-17 when I took over the '81 marquis. Then, I was 18 when I bought my lincoln. Many questioned my taste in cars. But, there was always the few who gave me thumbs up. So, keep up the good work mang!

      very nice ride. I like all the mods... a little show... a little go... and all functional.

        my first car was the LTD.. when i was 16 been in the fam since 96.. dad picked it up for 400 bucks for a work beater.. then it turned into what it is now.. she will be my lifelong project i think and will get a body off restoration. bought the Merc as my first legit paid for car, and it was in my name. i get compliments quite often cruising town during the summer

        thx sly.. i take pride in my visual stuff. i take the ordinary.... a fullsize grocery getter...combine oldschool class with modern tech and electronics and i get something pretty unique.. and thats what i love

                  Hi.
                  Best of luck with your gorgeous car! Slam it on the floor on 22's....only joking!!!
                  here in the UK I know of no-one, ever, of your age picking a car like that. I teach in an 11 to 18 year old school and all I see are cars that are no more than 4 years old! No imagination or creativity at all.
                  You are a rare individual sir - such a pleasure to see.
                  Seriously looking forward to your continuing story.
                  Much respect from the UK!!!

                  Andy.

                    thanks a lot Andy... thats very encouraging.. i most certainly will!.. i drove my LTD in highschool. i had the oldest car there and i parked right up front i also had a nice system in it.

                    i love taking the ordinary and making it unique.. whens the last time you saw a Merc on an LTD with HIDs and underbody.. probably never.. thats something you do to a ricer.. but im all american and i wouldnt trade my simple cars for nothing.. theyre so easy to work on too!. i dont have to remove the wheelwell to change the battery haha

                    in addition to your comment about the 22's haha i did think about lower this car about an inch or 2 lol.. my LTD is getting some HUUUGE rims.. im puting.. wait for it..... 16 INCH RIMS on it.. hahah x)

                    thanks for the compliments though guys. it really keeps me motivated with my rides

                            crappy quality.. my friend was taking the pic and it was cold and we were both pretty shaky.. but the tail lights survived.. cracked my plate holder, and shoved my bumper in pretty good along with jacking the trunk up..

                            thats what was left of her car
