so me and my buddy mario jus chillin had a couple of beers got to thinking, what would all of you guys do to your mark if we had just won 50 thousand bucks:eek:
 
Nothing, because you'd have won the money. :lol:

OK, 50 g's... Not nearly enough money, but would be a good start.

I'd turn my Mark VIII into a Bullitt variant - Highland green paint, custom black and silver interior, de-badged, anthracite wheels etc.

Oh, and I'd have my drive-train built and tuned by Lidio.
 
id send it off to sean hyland and get a built na 302 mod stroker put in nettin around 400+ at the wheels, sum bullit wheels and use whats left on a maaco paint yob

Then take the rest and buy that 20K CE that keeps showing up and add all the braces and ASHAM to it plus Cobra brakes and Saleens then use it for a DD. :D

Options I'd add:

Smoke screen
Flood lights that turn on towards the rear of the car
Bullet proof glass
Stealth Loudspeaker system

I'd then have my whole interior re-done
 
i'm gunna add a compressor and train horn system to mine....still have money left over wtf? i'm sure as people list things we'll all be getting all new ideas..
 
:q:q:q:q yeah train horn, id grab a mark viii shell, and plop it on a terminator frame and no mattter what it takes to make it fit, and just have the mark vii interior and same exterior look but hte guts of a terminator!
 
well since were adding on now, i did forget to add a stouter diff, and i wouldnt mind one of those cobra hoods,and lil giggle gas, wonder how much it cost me to put an ad in the paper calling out all those infinity owners too....:)
 
If I had won that kinda of cash, I'd just buy the 92 mile Mark. I mean who here wouldn't love to be able to go back in time and buy a brand new Mark? That would be the next best thing to me.
 
ill buy a for sale sign and put it on the windshild and then ill go to the ford dealer and buy a new sho get tune new exhaust and blow by every mark viii ha ha ha ha ha oh and with the left over ill get a 4x4 ford truck fill the back with coors light and celebrate call me loco if you want .ha ha ha ha ha ha lol...
 
just kidding guys but please dont hate me because of what i just say but dawn i would honestly just make one super endless list and would buy a second gen just to cruise aroud with laser and dlf jamie and all those good looking gen twos lol.....
 
Probly the only thing I'd do is a full tube chassy and mini tub(e).
 
This thread had potential but should have been worded so the money can only be spent on YOUR Mark.

The more I think about it there is no way I would do what I said. I would finnish up the paint and so a $5000 forged bottom end but the rest of the money would go for a 2011 Mustang GT.

If it was ONLY to be spent on mine..... I dont know how I would do it. I guess if I added 10K in more stereo stuff I couold but with trans, paint, leather, suade, suspension and remaining mod I can only hit like $40,000.
