Gen1 Gen 2 Mark VIII Mix

That actually does look good, I always liked the gen 1 front end but not the gen 1 rear end, but I liked to rear end of the gen 2 but not so much of the front end.. But he downgraded his headlights and vision at night..
 
I'll put money on it having a salvage title. Lol Does'nt look too bad though if I do say so myself.
 
Instead of hoods i wish someone would make a mean looking front bumper cover for a gen 2... sorta as if someone incorperated a 96-98 cobra fog lights and instead of going under it comes straight down.
 
Clear title? Ok... sure....

Mine has a clear title too. No joke, but...

1: Before I bought it, it had been broken into and taken on a joy ride. The driver's side door has been damaged and the trunk locked removed.

2: After I purchased it I was involved in a multi-car pile up. I lifted a cop car onto my hood. Got some NEW headlights though!!!!

3: Hit that big puddle that resulted in hydro-locking my engine. Car was bought back by me as salvage. NEW engine though!!!!

4: Parked in alley and hit by some drunk ass. Did enough damage to total car - again. Bought back as salvaged. NEW OEM front struts and all SORTS of goodies with insurance money!

But my title remains clear. Go figure.

Someone did with a Pontiac bumper - I think. Looked HOT!!
 
that right there is just someones cheap ass way of fixing a front end crash. the gen 2 nose is so costly to buy and replace, the gen one nose is pennies on the dollar, so , they took a nice gen two that was wrecked and slapped on a gen 1 nose to sell it. it may have a clean title so what, point is the car was wrecked, any car thats wrecked can have a clean title if you fix it yourself and not put in a claim with the insurance company, i crashed my 98 too but carfax will never show it becuase i fixed it myself out of my pocket, thats why car fax isnt as great as everyone makes it out to be, carfax is a 50/50 gamble, it doesnt tell you everything. i personally think the car looks like garbage, its only my opinion but i dont believe is mixing gen 1 and gen 2 bodies together, either you want a gen 1 or a gen 2, mixing them up to me looks hideous.
 
and the interior is not Tan/saddle on this Torredor red.. hmm i thought they all had tan , not gray.. Whats up with this thing?
 
Is that true the interior is always tan with that color. Mines not, got black. Think it was an under cover car with all the extra computer connections under rear seat and 12 gauge whole in the side. I saved that and hung on the garage wall. Maybe thats why the leathers so new
 
You could get black interior with that color. Ive even seen white, not many of those around though.
 
why are they selling it for so much with those miles on it?
 
Well its got all those fancy mods.

Other than the fact it looks like a pile, its not that bad of deal with a little clean up.
 
I was contemplating doing it with the 97 I bought but the front end was wrecked a little too hard, would've cost too much to fix the frame.
 
toreador red 97 or 98 marks came in prairie tan, light graphite, or ebony, or midnight black interior, they didnt only come tan, my father in law's toreador red 97 lsc was lt graphite.

There was that guy that had that customized frontbumper from a grand am on markviii.org, he was thinking about getting some molds made and mass producing his custom bumper for sale but I dont think he did it.
 
his name is lee, he's a body man by trade. its actually a base model 97, redone to look like an lsc. and dont ask where he got the hood, he made it himself it was not bought somewhere.

He did a great job on that gen 2. Car looks great! (the black one, that is)
 
See what I mean tho, all we need is a front bumper cover and the gen 2 looks as mean as hell. I think we should try and talk to him and get him some money.
