2003 Black Marauder $5,490 obo recent repairs/upgrades

[s4ddriverr]

I'm sad to say my Marauder is going up for sale. I purchased this car for my Grandpa and unfortunately he only used it for about a month before giving it back to me. He's only driven compact cars his whole life and simply said "its to big" and the gas mileage is worse than his Kia haha! even though him and my grandma loved the ride and got tons of compliments from all their friends and family whenever they drove it.

After purchasing the Marauder I realized it had almost all of the typical quirks that are in the DIY section of this forum plus a cylinder 8 misfire which turned out to be burned valve seats. Here is a small list of all the recent repairs and upgrades I have performed before handing it off to my Grandpa.

• Cylinder heads rebuilt (new everything including spark plugs)
• replaced chains and guides at the same time as head repairs
• Installed Zach's 5/8 cooling mod
• Had fastblackmerc repair the climate control head and install his LED upgrade
• Replaced timing cover (had a idler pulley bracket broken off)
• Installed new idler pulley, serpentine belt, and belt tensioner
• Replaced air filter
• Replaced fuel filter
• Serviced rear diff (with lsd additive and Redline gear oil)
• Repaired overhead compass and window switches
• Installed new rear tires (Fronts were replaced by previous owner and still look new)
• 4 wheel alignment was performed after getting the rear tires
• Brake fluid was flushed out
• Changed oil and filter multiple times after head repairs to ensure nothing nasty is in the oil.
• Installed Escape Radio
• I removed the rear bumper and had it repainted because it had 10+ years of parking lot scrapes, also performed the bumper tuck when reinstalling it.

There was a couple items I was still meaning to address but never got around to.

• Needs floor mats (carpet and interior are in great shape)
• headlights should be polished or replaced

Located in Irvine, California it has a clean title. 183,000 miles Asking $5490 obo

My ad can been seen on Craigslist here and I will try to figure out how to load the pictures onto this forum soon.

I wish I could keep it but I already have my CNG Crown Vic and my Cobra Vic (Bondurant!) I hate seeing the Marauder sit and not get enjoyed by somebody, its such a great car to drive.

and lastly, I value all the information and knowledge I have picked up on this forum. Please let me know if my price is fair or not. I am open to offers.

Thanks!

Great looking car. What do you mean when you say you performed the bumper tuck when reinstalling it?

Thanks PB! Did I stumble across a Crown Vic only mod?

Here is a link with tons of information on the bumper tucks http://www.crownvic.net/ubbthreads/u...358686&page=15
