dam atleast it came witha good battery ; ), i got that same battery in my car for a little more then a year and a half now, and it still is juicin out 13.0-14.0v even in this florida summer heat

[theredlineboss]

Looks good!
:beer:

[ChiTownMaraud3r]

Nice wheels, and did you paint the tail lamps?

[ts-pa]

Sicilianmarquis---What is the model number of the battery that you are using? How are you holding it in place? I don't need a battery yet, but I want the info for future reference.

WOW, what a repair job that car needed, looks good!

[duvaller1]

i spray tinted them..

[BAD MERC]

You really should blur your tag man - now I have your address, name, DL# and VIN. Useful info in the right hands. Please tint the windows black so people don't think that Marauders are like a granny car on the inside with a fake nose and glasses glued on. I want to turn a 1982 Cavalier into a Supra Turbo. Good idea?

[OneBADLsE]

It looks very nice. However, not to flame you, the paint could have been better, and leaving the door handles too would have been a nicer touch.

I can applaud your effort, but i cannot reward your effort ;)


*edit* I'm just bustin balls a lil bit. At least you didnt choose Rust Orange like that ebay clone*

Judging from the header, i would have to say what it is now. Looks like that whatever thats in front of the car smashed it after a brutal storm...

Could be wrong though

[03marauder99vic]

Looks good. Ignore the hate.

[MarauderMarc]

Man you guys are brutal. It obviously took alot of time and $$$ to complete that. I like it. Now you need to find a wrecked Marauder and redo the interior. Keep up the good work!!!

I think it looks great but this thread started out as a 3 part series and the final picture is of the car with the front end smashed. I'm curious if after all this work was the car hit or was this what he started with?

[HwyCruiser]

Now that I've seen it I think the shaved door handles is a good look. I hope the last pic isn't an after photo.

I believe it is. He posted in search of a right fender... :(

[duvaller1]

i was in a accident..someone pulled in front of me a week or so ago... so i'm re-doing it...

[n00bkiller944]

Damn man thats really a bummer... I really like the way it looks so post a bunch of pics up when your done i wanna see how it looks run done. What kinda damage was done in the accident?

[knine]

I never worry about that........no one ever shows up out here to become dog food........er, I mean.....a target.....er, nope, that's not right, uh.come to visit. Yea, that's it, no one ever comes to visit. yes. visit.

Good luck with the re-build.

[offroadkarter]

Thats a nasty crash, but it looks fixable. As long as there isnt any major frame damage you should be ok.

[duvaller1]

it won't get u my name or address...

[offroadkarter]

it won't get u my name or address...

Tracing plates could, i could find out what town and internet provider you have just from your IP address, not that i will, but its possible.

Everything can be traced :depress:

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

Oh man wood grained interior. LOL. Yes please tint to 5% or less so someone doesn't see that.

[Blackened300a]

it won't get u my name or address...

Ill prove you 100% wrong If you want Ill take your plate then PM you with your full name and home address tomorrow.

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

See, the the thing is, someone can see your car in a parking lot, write down the vin, go to a dealer and tell them they lost the key for their car, and have it cut for your vin, and drive off with it. That would be even easier than trying to track someone down over the internet.

Life is full of risks.

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

Blackened, I'll give you my plate # and take your challenge and see what happens. I don't disbelieve you but want to see for myself what someone can do w/ just a plate #.

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

Don't PM everybody else my address, but let me know if you come up with it, and I"ll relay that info to the board if anyone is interested. Just curious.

[Blackened300a]

[OneBADLsE]

This should be fun :D

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

Yeah if he can really come up with locations from license plates, we should start a racket, rescuing impoverished Marauders.

[OneBADLsE]

^^^^^^^^^^ :lol:

[Eric91Z]

I like the car and I like the idea of what you did. I, personally, would like to find a wrecked Marauder or slowly start putting Marauder parts together for my CVPI. Mostly interior stuff.

I want to do the Marauder front and rear seats and center console with floor shift. Maye a set of Marauder wheels and of course the motor. That would make for a little nicer daily driver with limited cash out lay and still have my true Marauder to have fun with.

bzzzzzzzt!

For one thing the dealership is required to demand id and proof of ownership before cutting any keys and for another if someone does succeed in getting a key cut unless its programmed to the vehicle the PATS system will prevent the engine from starting.

Anyway, nice looking car! Hope the front end doesn't give you too much of a problem getting fixed.

A dealer will cut a key for a known customer, but to walk in off the street you will have to show proof of ownership and drivers license. Also don't forget about the key having to be programmed to start the car.
In the dealers I have worked for no proof---no key!

Before you say it I will.........I'm sure there are dirty dealership personel out there.:mad:

[Raudermaster]

Like in Gone in Sixty Seconds.

Okay I didn't have to say anything!

[duvaller1]

nothing in that car is original...u can't get a key or my name/address....maybe a old girlfriends name & a bogus address thats it!! never to me... not even online i use wireless centrino, not an actual account to trace, so knock ya self out...

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

Ok you may not be able to steal the fakie woodgrain-trimmed "Marauder", but with most people's cars you can look up the license plate.

Blackened 300A found my full name, full address, vin#, expiration date, using ONLY my license plate # from a photo. He says he only used the internet to look it up.

That is pretty scary!
