Crown Vic owner joining in

[RESlagle]

While I don't own a Marauder, I thought I'd join the site and say Hi.

This is my 2008 Crown Victoria Police interceptor that I bought in 2012.

What it Originally looked like when I bought it

I got to see some progress of it yesterday when I swung to grab something out of my trunk

That seat looks great. What is that costing you? Can you find out for me how much he would do those same bottom covers only?

Sharp-looking car, and :welcome:

I've always liked the "steelies with centre caps and trim rings" look the best, but the Bullitt rims are nice, too, with Fanblades as runner-up.

One suggestion: those 4 grille attachment points at the bottom of the header panel. Maybe paint them black so they're not as obvious?

[crownvic05]

Yes, paint them black.

Welcome!

^^^X3 on painting them black^^^

nice car and love the wheels

Nice car! Black and white is a stark contrast without being too bold. I always wanted a factory white Marauder with a black interior.

If you haven't already, check out SoCal Panther Cruzers (http://www.socalpanthercruzers.com/phpBB3/). Bunch of nice guys. I met them at the La Verne car show in '15, and hung out with them at the Fabulous Fords event at Knott's last April (and will again this year). Not too many Marauders out here, but a lot of Vics.

There's also that Monterey trip the San Francisco group is taking in a couple weeks. I think I'll drive up and join them. Look in the West Coast forum.

Hey Mark, when is Knott's doing Fabulous Fords? Doubt I can get to LA but will be on the West Coast for a week or so over Easter. BTW Used to prefer Knott's over DL back in the day.:P

Thank you, same here. In the future I might try to go for the current bullit style looking wheel ford has on the mustang.

I actually already am, and have been to maybe 4 FFF shows? Anyway I'm actually the current club representative for SPC at the FFF council meets. Hopefully I'll see you there this year! If you have a Facebook we are actually much more active on the SPC Facebook group.

I REALLY wanna make this happen. The only thing that is stopping me is the drive. But I've seen some pictures of the NORCAL scene and it looks nice and active with cruises. Do they have a web site, Facebook group or something? I think they are called Bay area vics? This is definitely a 2017 goal for me.

Its April 30th this year.

Yeah I know, I'm super excited to get the car back. I'm paying just over a 1K out the door for both front seats, carpet with padding and fixing a couple of sections on a rear seat I pulled out at the JY. I'll ask for you but, to be honest guy who the runs the shop is more of a face to face type of guy, only local type of stuff. I'll be sure to post pics of my interior once I get it back.

Hey there, I'm sure I've seen you around on CVN before. Welcome abroad!

I think you need some Marauder wheels for your Crown Vic. :)
