I really dig the 2nd picture of the engine (Blue-Supercharged/White-MARAUDER/Red-4.6) decal. I wonder if these are available for our cars.

I would be suprized if ford even sold that.

IIRC, it wasn't a fully functional car, basically just a show-only for the auto show.

I know Ford sold the car and it sold on Ebay for $37K it is not road worthy can not be titled, for purpose of display only the car could not be driven over 15 mph it was only built to look at there is no top for it or glass in the doors

I know the dealer that bought the convertible. They had to fabricate the power window system and a removable hardtop for it. I don't know if he still has the car though. That dealership sold the franchise to another group. He had a few other rare FoMoCo cars, like the 1979 GT350 Mustang with the Metric Michelin tires and rims.

The dealership was in Lansdale, PA, but again I don't know if he still has the car or not.

Nope, no word. Try searching through some old threads for scraps of info, but it pretty much ended with it being in that PA Dealership owner's private collection.

Though I think I remember something about a police officer seeing it on the road rolling around in the guys neighborhood in PA. and talking with the owner a while back.

I was actually thinking of making one of these. Donor slightly damaged Marauder, mustang doors with the skin of the marauder doors using B- pillar mustang door latching side with another set of donor doors to mold rear quarters. Push foward the rear seats 2" finish off the rear lower window area, put frame strenghteners in, finish off body. Find a convertible frame and mechanics wiring etc from an old 70 something chevy caprice, put new top on and wammo.
