Just members having fun.

Lower that car, it will look 100% better, easy to do, a 10min job.
Local members could help you with that, there are a few of us around.

It will be a hard car to sell, but well worth what your asking.
Low miles.....awesome package.

Wish I had the cash, times are tough.

Are you one of the guys over on Jackson St. in St paul, that works at the auto recycler that has the green blown Marks? Very Nice ride! I too, really like that color!

Just wondering, Does the ride height seems a little high in the front?
 
Tuned at Paul's

Did you take this mark to Anderson Ford for a PCM? I swear I saw this car there.

I drove my car to Paul's High Performance in Michigan a few years ago for tuning. His shop is often in the Mustang magazines which is why I chose it.
The Mark8 got 26 mpg both ways, drove pretty slow, had not replaced that cursed aluminum 2 piece driveshaft at that time and had an annoying vibration at 65 up. I put in a 1 piece from a Tbird and it was gone. By the way, I tried 2 aluminum stockers with the same result. That shaft is good for scrap, no more.
Yes, I do have the used auto parts yard in St. Paul. We have wrecked 6 to 10 8's over the years. Gen 2's sell more parts, engines have never sold and tranny's seldom. Mostly they sell small stuff and front sheet metal. Whenever one shows at auction I bid more than I should, used to get them but they have gone higher the last year. I hate to see one get crushed when we're done parting it; I see nice quarters, doors, dashes, seats, rear ends gone for good. I save a few parts like heater controls and dash trim for mine and I actually want a 98 complete to (maybe) remove the supercharger from mine.

Carlisle

I forgot to add that while the Mark was at Paul's for a few days I went to the Carlisle All Ford show. That was the best show; no sorting through the off brands like Mopar and GM, just Fords, Mercurys, Lincolns. At that time Volvo, Jaguar,and Mazda were owned by Ford and there were some good ones. Where else would you go to see modified Topaz's, Merkur XR4ti's and many Mark 8's. I actually met some of LVC web guys. Go to All Ford, the best Ford show.

Sitting real high

I agree that mine is high in the front, the car was on a slight incline and looks extra high. I usually turn the air ride off and it settles lower over time. Additionally, my friend had a series of mid 90's Continentals with all kinds of air ride troubles; he began to only turn it on when the car got low. No more problems.
