Here's an engine/tranny on e-bay if someone needs one...http://pics.ebaystatic.com/aw/pics/icon/iconNew_16x16.gif 2003 MERCURY MARAUDER ENGINE/TRANS SWAP (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33615&item=7945249727&rd=1)

Well, that's a pretty clean engine and tranny combo, and if I recall the original offering this seller explains, that assembly came from a blue '03 with frame damage. Engine and tranny for 2K, looks like a sweet deal.

Be cautious here. He says "I purchased this engine on EBAY in 7/04 from a commercial salvage seller but was unable to get the technical help needed to make the swap so have chosen to resell the engine". I checked his feedback and found he has been idle on ebay since 2003. His feedback is only 9 and all past items are old so you can not research his purchases. If I was interested I would ask someone here who is near by where the engine/tranny is to go and see it in person. 2K is a lot to risk on a guy with low feedback.

Kinda hinky.....

We've got some members in the Columbus, GA area don't we? Maybe someone would check this deal out.... Could be a sweet buy for MarauderMark. :confused:

Mac, can you call Mark and tell him about this? (Or did you already? :)). Do you think he'd be interested?

I sent the seller an email asking for the reserve price... Sometimes they'll tell, sometimes not. I'll get back when he does...

Yeah, he hasn't emailed me back yet either, (even with a refusal to name the reserve... just, nothing). It's been about 24 hours with no response... don't know about this guy...
