more updates: painted the core support, rehooked up all the stuff that was connected to it (ground wires, braces etc.) wired in my ddm hid kit (way better than the oem ones that were in it when i bought it) and lined up the new hood latch assembly. tomorrows work will most likely get the car back to looking like a mark viii and less like a derby car (header panel, fenders, grill and bumper cover) then a wash to see what i'm working with, haha. see y'all on the other side!

C'mon! You gotta put up more/better pics than that!

 

[lincoln_lurker]

only pic i've taken so far, it isn't near "done" but it never will be...i'll post more when i fix some of the stuff that is still in need of attention

 

[lincoln_lurker]

so in the couple weeks since i posted last i've changed my mufflers to thrush turbos, and changed tires (other set was really chopped up) and this week i'm going to be changing my lower control arms to eliminate the steering wheel shake. then i have a stuck caliper pin on my rear brake that i will need to address as well. pictures will be forth coming as soon as i get the hood lined up better with the header panel.

Just saying hi and hoping you are getting my old Mark up to it's original glory!! I have replaced it, unfortunately not with another Mark, but a nice 08 Dodge Charger.....although I will always be on the lookout for another Mark =)
