    Newbie from FL

    Hey all,

    Looks like a great place to hang out!!! My name is Al and I live in south FL. I am new to Marauders but not new to the panthers. Been selling Town Cars for a living for almost 8 years now.

    A buddy of mine asked me to find a Marauder for him which I did. After I drove it I was hooked and had to find one for myself but the budget was low
    Found a decent car but it was butchered by the previous owner Stupid alarm, retarded audio system so on so forth. I took all that junk out and restored all the factory wiring back to original condition. Now I need help locating a laundry list of interior trim and parts. I posted in the parts wanted section and hope you guys can help me out.

    Mine is on the Right

    Welcome aboard. Enjoy the site and your new ride.
    (#6178 in black per FPIC)
    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:

    Paula Babineau 1/9/67-8/2/11

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    Welcome aboard, and enjoy the site.
    As John stated a marauder is a marauder, and sometimes 1/2 a CVPI can simulate a marauder . So come on down to the Towers meet, and by the way, my old Marauder, I'm parting out is only 2 minutes from the Towers location, so you can check out what I have left and what I'm getting rid of. You haven't seen rough until you've seen what I've got left.

    Thanks for the warm welcome guys. I appreciate it. I will stop by this Friday with my bag of bolts

    The car inst bad but like I said, it has been butchered by stupid elchepo electronics and it looks like it had a couple of systems in the trunk as there are small holes drilled all over the place I just don't understand why would someone go and deliberately start destroying a car like that.

    Ed would love to stop by and see what you have left.
