Marauder M.C.

Wasn't sure where to post this, I haven't seen this car since my days of working at a Lincoln-Mercury dealer, back in 04-05. But I ***** you not, there was a DTR Marauder that someone put on a carriage roof like you would put on a GM. I couldn't believe my eyes. All the techs were making fun of it. I'm sure that I'm not the only one that thinks that looks like complete ASS and ruined a perfecly good Marauder. I'm not sure what the owner was thinking, that it looked good or he was an old timer that was upsold to the Marauder as a fully loaded GM and sold a vinyl roof on top of it. Just curious if anyone in Mass saw that car or there are more MM'S that have been degraded like this. I'm not bashing carriage roofs, but in my opinion they do not belong on a Marauder. Couldn't find any pics online of this car or any other one like it.

Old age and treachery is more than a match for youth.
Or,like my favorite movie line ever,in the very last scene of the movie True Grit
"sis" as he calls her,tells John Wayne he's too old to jump a three rail fence with a horse,and in reply as he jumps the fence successfully,he tells her,"come see a fat old man sometime".
Old men can go fast when they want to.:burnout:
Have you heard the story about the old bull and the young bull standing at the top of the hill overlooking a herd of nice looking cows? I won't repeat it here.
Now you young whipper snappers show a little respect for your elders,and our DTR's,lol

Here's one too. Kinda like albino Unicorns and three-legged ballerinas, you gotta look carefully.

That must've been one that sold unsold for a long time becuse they though they could scalp the price on it and the sales manager finally got tired of seeing it and had that top put on it to move it.I'd bet either some codger that couldn't get a RWD Buick finally bought it,or a local independent pharmaceutical salesman did. At least they didn't put Superfly lights and grille on it,I guess.
The only good part is that whole top is one piece of fiberglass that can be removed and the top can be re finished,but that ain't cheap to do,although if you have decent body work and painting skills it might be a good way to pick up a low mile MM in a few years that ain't been beat on.
Still fugly right now though.
