    First Grand Marquis

    Just bought a 2006 GM GS with 46k miles. Was in search of big wagons (roadmaster, caprice, colony parks ETC.) and came across this beast.
    All I have done is fluid changes and seat belt rebuild, this is a sweet car, rides smooth and averaging 22-23mpg first 2 fill ups.

        Congrats, and welcome!

        I just bought a '98 Grand Marquis LS over the weekend with 63k miles on it. The biggest thing I'm excited about is having rocker panels... my boxes are pretty rotted out, lol.

            They look pretty clean from those pictures in your signature

              The picture of The Ice Car is from 2013, of the "good side". The other side had some rust, and the trunk lid was missing the trim and beginning to rot back then. The picture of The Scab is from 2016, also of the "good side". The other side has the rotted out rocker panel and some previous owner accident damage on the quarter panel. The Scab actually isn't quite as different today since I have tried to keep it away from winter driving, but The Ice Car is almost completely rotted away (although somehow looks like a different/clean car underneath, just ask TecNickal).
