Updated pictures of my Marauder..

[96fleetwood]

It has been over a month and 1,200 miles since I bought the Marauder. Overall I am very happy with it. I installed new pads/rotors on all four corners, had the windows tinted, a tune up, all fluids changed, and a pair of new front tires installed.

Lookin' sharp! I hope JEG'S is giving you a discount for promoting their company with the front tag lol.

[Egon Spengler]

Looks good man! I still haven't installed the Eibachs you sold me! haha I will get around to it soon!

[justbob]

I hope they go easy on you with that tint. I gave up.

[96fleetwood]

Thanks! It is coming along, slower than expected due to the $$ I spent on the maintenance.

I have my cars registered in another state. All three have tints, but they leave us alone b/c of the out of state plates.

[justbob]

Lucky you! Looks real nice.

[a_d_a_m]

Looks like my car's twin!

[BAD MERC]

Sweet ride - is that YOUR pimp-palace?

[BhamMarauder]

Looks great!!!

[96fleetwood]

Thanks gentlemen! Now I have to play catch up to get it as nice as yours!

That is my neighbors house, we made an offer in November and they refused... the owners think the market will change overnight. I just want a 3 car garage!

[ImpalaSlayer]

nice car and "hood" YO! :lol:

[not5-0]

looks good...what size and make tires did you go with?

[oldekid]

Very nice, thanks for posting.

Your car looks great! Did you replace the pads & rotors with stock parts or aftermarket? The reason I ask is I need to do the brakes on mine soon.

[Zack]

I love your driveway :up:

[a_d_a_m]

Fixed for Zack!

I love your neighbor's driveway :up: :banana2:

The car came with brand new Nexen 255/60/18 in the rear. I put brand new 235/55/18 Michelin Pilots on the front 2 weeks ago. The tread design is almost exact, my speedo is ~3% slow but I will get that fixed with the tune.

I went with OEM pads & rotors. The originals lasted 60K miles, so I hope this set will do the same.


Thanks for the kind words! :up:

As for my neighborhood, it is made up of old and new houses. The old ones are being bought up to be leveled and then new homes built in their place... we live in one of the old houses :o.

How do you register your cars in VA... I live in VA, wanna register my cars in IL for me?

[Mac-MerC]

got the same rain-x wipers like me
a damn shame it looks just like mine..... i need to paint mine lime green or something

[LIGHTNIN1]

Sharp Machine!

[96fleetwood]

Thanks!


How do you register your cars in VA... I live in VA, wanna register my cars in IL for me?

I finished medical school up here in IL and now I am doing my residency here as well. Being a resident physician, I only have temporary IL medical license so I can keep my Virginia drivers license registered to my parents address in VA.


... and I love these rain-x wipers. It had some cheap Anco blades when I bought it and they must have been at least a year old.

SHE LOOKS REALLY GOOD.........
Clean...!

[Motorhead350]

That reminds me... I need to wash my car.

Looks great!

[96fleetwood]

Thanks again!

If you look closely at the front end shots, my driver's side fog lamp builds moisture after a wash. This is causing it to work intermittently... should I just by a new housing assembly?

[2,4shofast]

Very clean MM, Im jealous!

[DOOM]

Another fine example of a beautiful marauder :beatnik:

Nah, I'd like to leave that to the one's that truly deserve the space in line. Pre 1975 cars, but mostly streetrods of the 20's-30's built for racing in the 50's. (basically my next project).
