It's Bigslim. I thought I would stop by and say hello to everyone. Site still looks great. It's been a while. Zack, the Lincoln looks great. Mary, great job on site and the events.
For those of you that know me I use to have a 2003 black 300A. I then traded it in for a 3004 silver 300B. This one I supercharged with a Trilogy supercharger (#73). I put a smaller pulley on it with a K&N air intake to put out 415RWHP and 436RWTQ. I also was the only one that had the turn signal mirrors installed. My two old cars are on Cardomain under Bigslim1 if anyone wants to see them.
I will say that some of my best memories are with these cars and the people I came to know with their Marauders at different events. Right now I have another big black sedan with a 4.6 V8 that drives the "wrong wheels". I have a 2007 DTS. Nice car but it is not a Marauder. Anyway, I will be around if anyone needs info or just want to talk.
BTW, does anyone know where my old car is? It was sold to a member here in 2009 from Atlanta. Just wanted to know how the old girl is.

3004 or 2004. I hope it's 3004. I can only guess what the car of the future can do - warp speed?

I think it was for sale a bit ago with a hurt motor
It's just outside of Detroit, owned by Jerry
He says he's selling it to me but I don't believe him

It made it's way back to city. I sold it to a guy here and he tried to sell it back to me before he sold to the Atlanta gentleman. Wonder how many miles were on it when the motor was "hurt". I know it will be in good hands with you Zack.

I've been driving her daily and getting into boost daily.
I'm guessing the noise is in the valve train according to my local mechanic.
Otherwise I would have certainly grenaded her by now.
What I'm doing with it is up in the air since it came in in much better shape than expected.
Came in with a 2.9 pulley, I went to a 3.2.
131k as of now

Wow! 131k now. I guess it has been daily driven. I tried to never take it out when I smelled rain and it never saw snow except for the night I picked it up after the blower was installed. I remember that night because I had to drive it home I blowing snow only to have the weather go up into the 60's two days later. I changed the pulley. 381 RWHP before the change and 415 RWHP after the change. Keep enjoying her.

Nice to hear from you Marty. I see your car is a real beast now. I've been following it on YouTube. Nice runs.

Not going to lie, I was going to pull some parts and the s/c and flip it.
But now :confused:

Driving a supercharged Marauder is like being on Coke. It is addicting. ;)

Well, Jerry has 5 or 6 marauders now . I lost count. Couple of them exceed 6-700 Rwhp . He's a hoarder :D

Didn't you have a PT Cruiser?
If so do you still have it?

Got rid of the PT when I got the 2008 Sable. Those were the cars I drove to work and in the rain. Now the Caddy is all I have. Would like to build a Stang though.

Wazzup Daryl? We still have the F250 and the mustang GTCS you helped us get into with the A-plan. I've been wondering what you've been up to. Do you still work for Ford?

I remember you. I see you have one of my wish list cars. I still love the SHO. Livernois Performance here has upgrades for the SHO that take it up to 450hp. Good to hear from you.
Slim it's nice to hear from you.
