    Greetings from the Czech Republic

    Hi everyone!

    I have found this great forum few months ago and it has already helped me very much. I have got 89 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park (302cui) and I use it as daily driver in the Czech Republic, Europe, so it is quite unusual car here which also results in fact that it is not as easy to just put it here in service station, becuase they sometimes do not know what to do with it. That is why I try to do easier things on my own if possible. I like american cars very much, especially the old ones. There are many US cars fans meetings in the country and I really enjoy the look on the parking lot or a camp full of V8 fullsize and muscle cars.

    There is a lot of work which has to be done on my STW, but as I would never sell it, I have quite enough time for that.

    This forum is very helpful for me, because you know these cars really well and you are very willing to help, so thank you very much for that!

    And by the way, FORDs are the best

    You must be one of the few with a bad ass American full sized car around there. I would love to see heads turn watching your wagon drive by cars 3/4's your size.

      Yeah, it is sometime really funny in compare with those little european cars:

      Classic fullsizes are not as usual on streets, because people do have them mostly as cars for summer and for weekends, but for example new mustangs, escalades, or 300C can be seen quite often (in the capital city).

      Fortunately full size are definetely addictive, I have troubles driving anything smaller now

                      you can get the link of the image from a hosting site and then just use [IMG] tags. you can also just quote someone who put an image in a post and see how the img tags work.

                      for example..

                      is really only http://i715.photobucket.com/albums/w...evilsponge.jpg but with [IMG] in front of the link and [/IMG] after the link
