    one thing she couldve done better though was have the car washed more often in the winter. it would get full of salt from driving then just pulled into the garage. sometimes not getting washed til spring im sure. the car being white didnt help any, if it was black the salt wouldve been very obvious. so the chassis is rotted behind the front tires on both sides with minor surface rust in about 10 other places.

    its strange how cars can look so good on the outside and be rotted underneath.

    i hate salt.
    Haha, Thats how my G Marq was.. It was so gross underneath the brake and fuel lines had wet spots.. Ewwwwwwwww

                    i saw this about 31 pages in browsing all 60 pages for "1988 grand marquis" so it was an impulse ebay buy since its NOS and shiny, $114 shipped.
                    apparently it was bought from a dealer that was closing back in '96 and the guy has had it in his warehouse of NOS parts since.

                    the chrome on my oe grill is starting to get spots in it.
