View Full Version : For Sale Selling My DTR MM
UncleLar
06-06-2009, 03:13 PM
Less than 37K miles,one of only a few hundred with everything on it,power moon roof from the factory,heated seats,trunk organizer,cd changer and dark Charcoal interior.Also has a K&N FIPK,Lidio's XACL3 tunes one for 93 octane and 3.55 gears,one each for 4.10 gears and 93 and 91 octane,Magnaflow delete tips,look identical to stock delete tips except 4" shorter (but you can't tell they are shorter).
Only the dealer has touched this car,oil and filter changes were done way before needed by the dealer,the fuel filter was recently changed and the trans flushed recently also.I'm totally anal about early and frequent oil and filter changes and at every oil change I add a big bottle of Chevron Techron to the fresh tank of gas and Sea Foam between oil changes.
The car has a Ford top of the line transferable warranty with $100 deductible good till 66,540 miles or Jan 18,2011.All stock parts that were taken off will be included and I'll include a genuine Ford Shop Manual and Electrical Manual.All 3 keys including the valet key come with along with both key fobs,plus an extra OEM un cut key and 2 or 3 extra cartridges for the CD changer along with the owners manual and warranty books and even have the zippered case for them.
I'll even throw in my MM collectible stash which includes a scarce MM water bottle like the one sold on eBay last year for $51,my fresh in the boxes Two Percenter pin and MM miniature fender pin sold by SgtMac many moons ago,a couple of God's Head patches and a slew of old and very old Mercury and Lincoln/Mercury patches,some from the early 1950's. Also a Mach 1 front spoiler.
The price is rock solid at $18000.00.That's what I need to pay off the loan so I won't dicker and I don't want any trades.(except maybe a Bentley Brooklands or a Duesenberg SJ,lol.)
I have some pics of the car but can't post them here,if someone would like to post then I can email them to them.I can take any and all the pictures a prospective buyer would like and email to them.
The service guys at the dealer were informed today that I intend to sell my MM and tried very hard to talk me out of it and they're informing several people of it's being up for sale now,they know the car so hopefully someone will get it that loves it as much as I do.It took me 5 years of being a member here to get a MM and I'll always regret having to sell it.
Please don't hijack the thread as I need to sell the car soon. Thanks,Uncle Lar
Also,I have a Mach 1 chin spoiler that will go with it.

Sorry to hear it has to go UncleLar, if you don't mind I'd like to post this pic showing the sweet DTR and it's proud owner. I apologize for the poor camera image quality.
Best of luck selling the car. And to anyone reading, this one has been well taken care of.

Dom, Mike, justbob, some of the other Chicago area guys, can you chime in?
Thanks man, the car looks great I think it would be perfect for me

All I can say is, you might need a prybar to get Lar's nuckles off the wheel. He even sits in it at car shows, so no one bumps it! He's at work right now, but he is on here daily.
Any idea why he is selling it?

Looks like I get to meet UncleLar tomorrow. I will be flying in to Chicago to pick the car up and drive home to Oklahoma. I feel fortunate and am grateful that I can buy a second MM, especially one that has been taken such great care of. I plan to leave this one stock, my Black with 500+ RWHP while being great fun is not a practicle daily use vehicle. Will post up when we get back home.

As of 10:13PM tonight it's on it's way to OK with it's new owner to join it's new stablemate,a Black supercharged 2003 300A.
It hurts to see it go but at the same time I feel good it's getting a good home and will be well cared for instead of being turned in a piece of crap parked on the street here in the city.
BTW,you guys ain't getting rid of me,I'll still attend WCM meets but I won't wear my Windy City Marauders t shirt again unless I get another MM.Start planning for JC Whitney again this coming spring,maybe we can double the attendance.
