needs a trunk lid and front fenders pretty bad, some bubbles here and there, clear coat peal on hood, but not half bad. Then again its been painted from the trim down at some point so its hard to say. Its not great, but its all fixable


I've got a rust free California car.. (89 I think) the interior was gutted by the previous owner but the body is solid.  I'm going to pull the motor and keep it.  Trans is shot.  Got any friends that could haul it from AZ to Rhode Island?

I had the MM and TC out to a Tucson car show this weekend.  The MM competing in the 80s to present modified class and the TC in the 80s to present original class.

MM took a 2nd and the TC took a 3rd.

Some folks had asked to see the MM so here are some more recent pictures.

Thanks,

I am actually I've been very fortunate in life....

My kids are young adults... it is just my wife and our Zoo...
So my cars are my toys.  I use my Lincoln MKVII as my daily driver... and alternate the other ones in from time to time.  Altho the sun is very hard on the cars here in Arizona I have enough garage space/carports that I can keep them out of the sun most of the time.  The weather here is also very moderate in respect to snow and such so there is little wear and tear associated with that.  My biggest battle is the sun and dust.  (and  mice and pack rats)

Bottom line is... the cars are all low mileage TC with 50k, MKVII with 40k and the MM with about 15k.

Beautiful cars. Keep up the good work.

Your Marauder looks as slow as mine does, LOL.


No.. it's slower... :D

You are pushing a lot more HP than I am. I'm getting about 378 off the rear wheels with the Trilogy.  However, I have a very safe tune for 91 Octane so I went in knowing I'd be down a little bit from the norm!
