Name is Bryan... living in good old Washington. Unfortunately I can't afford a Marauder so I bought myself a 92' Grand Marquis for $225.00

When I bought her she had blown rear bags and had been sitting a while

Next I bought some 18" Fanblades

Then the work began. 02' Crown Vic front brake upgrade along with R1Concept rotors and Hawk pads. I also dropped in a set of Eaton 1.5" drop coils, Addcos front and rear, ES end inks, KYBs front and rear, and also a set of Stainless braided lines.

Then I did what everyone had told me not to. Whale nose swap on an Aero

Since then I have finished my Intake swap, Dual exhaust, 100 shot NOS, and lots of odds and ends

I don't know who told you NOT to do a Whale swap - the best case swap is an Aero Merc with a Whale front end (way better than an Aero Vic)! You nailed it - and used the '98-'02 front end which is always going to be one of my favorite Panther front ends.

Either way, I remember this car from CVN but never did keep up with the thread. Glad to see it's coming along nicely.

I had a pair of 1992 Grand Marquis'. One was an early build with the 2 bolt starter and the other was a late build with the 3 bolt starter. Both had HPP. The later build one had the suspension down. The early build needed an engine.

I like your wheels. Car looks nice.
I miss my 01 GM. Traded it in for my MM though so it softened the blow.....
