That's crazy my friend seen that car before somewhere near the northside and he sent a picture of the car to me. Had to been like a year ago. I think he still has the picture of it I gota ask him. He thought it was a MMand I did too til I seen this thread!!:eek:

I still don't see the point of an MM clone if you aren't going to at least swap to DOHC.

If you had to choose between converting to an MM, that wasn't an MM...

or building a Crown Vic to something that was so much more than just a Crown Vic....


Why would you choose to be a fake?

Lmao, nice.


Seriously though, I can't think of a different car community where you wouldn't be looked down on for trying to fake a car.

Put SRT badges on a non-turbo Neon, you look like an idiot.
Put GT badges on a V6 Mustang, you look like an idiot.
Put Lightning badges on a regular F150, you look like an idiot.
Put SS badges on a V6 Camaro, you look like an idiot.
Put Evolution badges on a regular Lancer, you look like an idiot.
Put SRT badges on a V6 Charger/Challenger, you look like an idiot.
Put Si badges on a regular Civic, you look like an idiot.
Put turbo stickers on anything that isn't turbo, you look like an idiot.

Figuratively speaking, the list could go on forever.

I mean, I guess you can get SOME slack if you go to the trouble to also swap the entire powertrain over, or do enough conversion to where the only thing that would give it away would be a VIN that doesn't match what you're saying it is, but even then, why cheapen the namesake of whatever car it is you're trying to clone?

Meh, I don't mind the cloning. If you really like Marauders and found some parts and they fit your (Grand Marq, Crown Vic, etc.) fine with me. Now if someone cloned one and tried to sell it as a Marauder, that's a different story.

I don't see what the big deal is... it's not like they took them off a good MM. More than likely, it was a wrecked Marauder and they took the good parts and used them. Nothing that can't be undone either.... You used to see this all the time with musclecars. 442 ram air hoods on Cutlasses, Air Grabber hoods and GTX badges on Satellites, Shaker hoods on regular '69-70 Mustangs, etc.

Or the other way around, taking the 427 off the fenders and butting poverty caps on the rims

Doubtful, seen all the recovered stolen MM's at insurance auctions? What's missing? Interiors, bumpers, wheels essentially all the Marauder specific parts.


Why throw 3-5k worth of parts on a $500 Vic, not a big deal if you have -0- in the parts. I also have only seen 1 Vic that was converted, done legit and cost was obviously high.

Sure, I put Pinto buckets in my Courier way back in '83. Not trying to be a Pinto, just better seats.
I only have a few Marauder parts in my Vic, not to imitate but to add to what Ford left out for us..ie. tachometer,driving light switch on headlights,gauge pod and decent swaybars. Most of my parts came from salvage yards or parts no longer needed.

I would totally buy this and tell the seller to keep the wheels. It would be a great parts car. Not to sell parts off of, but to keep in case someone hits me again.

they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

I wonder who they are :lol:

but at least Marauders don't have fake kits to look like them AND have the name bastardized by GM.

There you go, the guys whinin' about rare parts should putting your money where your mouth is and buy up all the stuff for the other owners, just in case they need it...

Buy mine and part it out, it's for sale(Yeah that's a shameless plug)...

Seriously? Get off your high horses..

The "rare parts" can be bought off of ebay all day every day. BTW I had a marauder, crown vic, and a grand marquis (which had a marauder bumper on it). Did anyone stop and think that there are no other kits out there for these vehicles. I don't think most people with a bumper claim they have a marauder, its an alternative to having a car that looks like a grampa mobile or a cop car. It is the only kit out there that doesnt look like crap and is somewhat easy to change over. BTW other communities are not as uptight about the so called "clones".

Enjoy your cars :burnout:, clones do not lower your values, steal your part bins, or fool anyone. Besides, nobody tells you guys that you are imitating a Cobra with an Eaton swap. Now how ridiculous would that be :rolleyes: :shake:

But a supercharger isn't specific to a Cobra, in this case it's just a supercharger that can be very easily fitted to an MM engine. Also, by that logic, you would have to say that all N/A MMs, all Lincoln Mark VIIIs, and Lincoln Aviators (I'm sure I'm forgetting others as well) are trying to imitate N/A Cobras. And that CVs are trying to imitate Mustang GTs. And that V6 Mustangs are trying to imitate V6 F150s. Or that an SBC-swapped 280Z is trying to be a Corvette.

Putting a false badge on a car is much different than swapping a motor or a power-adder, not even similar enough to compare.

im saying that taking a marauder bumper and putting it on a 'millions sold' gm pisses me off......you buy the bumper from china, and leave us, a "collector car" owner, a genuine ford bumper. in 20 years, your dime-a-dozen gm or cv will be worth nothing compared to a marauder, even if it does have a marauder bumper cover(it still wont increase your cars value as much as it will depreciate a marauders value having a gm bumper). why would i stockpile parts for my car? the insurance company whos going to replace the rear bumper wouldnt buy it from me, and i sure as hell wouldn't give it to them. that pic of the mustang with the chevy bowtie is meant to be funny, just like a crown vic or gm with marauder parts.....laughed at.

Bahahahaha! Thanks for the laugh I really needed it. Get off your high horse. They aren't spending your money by buying Marauder parts.

Oh and on my 1996 Grand Marquis I have genuine Marauder seats, floor mats, trunk organizer, 1 of 500 rare, metric Canadian speedometers, 5 wheels, gauge pod with gauges. Oooh ya, I just lowered the value of your super collectible Marauder by tens of dollars. hahahaha

Awful broad brush you paint with, many members here have attended Vic meets, myself included.

Maybe we are upset because the Marauder bumper is difficult to find, and if some ass hat rear ends you, you can't find one. So when one is taken up by a Vic it dilutes the options for actual Marauder owners

Maybe the Vic guys just have some self hatred, for if you love your Vic so much, why do you need Marauder parts?

And you wonder how MM owners get such a bad reputation. It's ignorant posts like this^

Hell, my car has foglights out of a Ford focus and I just ordered a set of Viper seats, it's about buying what YOU like. Aside from a select few supercars, I don't think there's any vehicle that I wouldn't modify to my own liking. It didn't make any sense to me to spend 10k on a car that has an extra 50 hp and some nice wheels.

Oh, and I robbed one of your oh-so-rare :lol: center consoles that also were available on 2 other panther models.

Youre talking to me all wrong, i like every part on my marauder, so i dont need the 'upgrade' like you feel you do with your cv. I dont care about the center console, but i do care about things specifically made for my car that are obselete from the factory such as the bumper. All in all, if you get a marauder bumper and put it on your vic, what am i going to do about it?.... nothing. But dont come into our house asking if its ok, the answer youll get wont be what you want to hear, which is exactly your problem, my views are different than yours. We will never agree and i realize it and wont drop down to name calling, but will state my opinion. For the record, i never said i was on a high horse, but if you think i am, more power to me.

I don't understand what the big deal is, if a Crown Vic owner buys parts off a junk Marauder they probably saved that part from the crusher. It's a very small niche that likes these cars guys...in case you forgot, Ford had a hard time selling them.

I don't think the Marauder is a collector car, it's just a car with a small production run because of lack of interest.

I would love to have a Marauder but I couldn't afford one and I have a panther I like now.

Can't we all get along? :D

Would love to get along, but we keep getting called elitists and snobs and that our car that we love is nothing more than a Vic with shiny wheels

How would you guys like it if we jumped on your board and called you low rent taxi cab drivers? You wouldn't like it at all
Buying Marauder specific parts for a Vic makes it more difficult to keep our cars whole and on the road when you gain nothing more than having parts that say Marauder on them

I asked before and I'll say it again

If our cars are just Vic's with shiny wheel, why do you feel the need to put the Marauder bumper on your beloved Vic

Seems to me like you are hoping for a case of mistaken identity. Considering you can buy all sorts of gauges, OEM ford bumpers? Why do you feel the need to put our limited parts on?

I personally don't care what you bolt on your car, you didn't lower the value of my car, and you certainly didn't raise the value of yours. It's what you wanted to do, no big deal.

What I don't get is....... if you think all our cars are the same, why do you try to make yours look like a Marauder? Marauders are cheap now, step up and quit being an imitator and become an owner.

I don't think all cars are the same but I also don't consider a Marauder to be some one of a kind rare production car that will fetch hundred grand at an auction in 20 years.

I have no intention of making my 17 year old Marquis look like a Marauder. I do my own thing with my cars. Marauders have parts that weren't offered on CVs and Marquises. Tach, 18" wheels, fog lights, fancy embroiled floor mats, etc. Hence why CV and Marquis owners buy them.

Don't forget, CVs and GMQs could be ordered with just about every option that a Marauder had except DOHC. People grab LX Sport and Marquis LSE parts just as fast as they do Marauder parts.

While it may not fetch 100k in 20 years, I believe it may do very well. I had an AAR Cuda in 80', not worth a whole lot in 80' being just a 10 year old car, lets see what those are bringing today.....

The Marauder is as rare as a LX Sport, and actually, IIRC, they made less LX Sports than Marauders. So the question is, why not use LX Sport parts or LSE parts.

Do yourself a favor, you want a Marauder, buy one, they can be had for less than a late model Vic or Marquis. That said, I have to get back out to the garage and finish bolting all my spare Marauder parts on my Marquis.....:flamer:

Yeah, like it makes sense to put Marauder floor mats in a Vic or GMQ

There is absolutely no reason to put something like that in a Vic other than you secretly want a Marauder

I dont expect it to fetch 100k, but its still a collector car, without the model specific parts it becomes a cv or gm with a better motor to the average joe. You want to save the bumper from the junkyard? Then pull it off and sell it to a marauder owner on here...you cant save a wild animal by putting it in the zoo....it didnt belong there to begin with.

So the question is, why not use LX Sport parts or LSE parts.

Those are as desirable as Marauder parts to an average CV owner. I have Marauder seats in the Marquis because that's what I came across at a junkyard. My 96' Vic has LSE seats. All Marauder parts that I have I grabbed from a junkyard. They could've just as easily went under the crusher.

What no one will answer is, why put a Marauder bumper on a Vic?

I would actually like an answer to that, especially when OEM Ford bumpers are readily available

What possible reason is there for that?

It does not increase performance, falsely labels your car a Marauder and
takes that away from a Marauder owner

Same thing with the floor mats, generic floor mats are more common than aspirin, why do you need Marauder Mats?

I don't have a Marauder bumper cover and have no desire to get one so I don't know. The only thing that comes to mind is styling. Marauder has a single lip on the bottom while Vics have 2.

As for why I have Marauder floor mats...they were in a junk car, I got them for next to nothing so I put them in. Plus they are embroiled so they look cool. If someone has an identical set of floor mats with embroidering that says Grand Marquis I will gladly trade them. Same goes for gauge cluster. I only want it because it has a built in tach and looks factory.

I don't have a issue with any Marauder part on a CV or MGM, has been done on various models since their were cars... Years back it was Chevy Biscaynes with SS bucket seats & console or maybe a Fairlane with Torino GT wheels, or scoop(Hell they showed up on everything from Pintos to Dodge pickups) Never gonna stop no matter how much the purist pisses and moans about it... If it's a upgrade, I say go for it...

I actually planned to convert my old 00 CV into a MM clone but after adding up the cost of an engine swap , well complete powertrain swap, body, interior, suspension, then realized I might as well buy the whole freakin car and let it be turn key ready, numbers matching, real deal, & it was by far one of my best decisions. I even sold my 94 Caprice and bought a 96 imp-SS too. Atleast with the later you already have the correct LT1 powertrain if its a police pkg which is more than half the battle as compared to the MM.

We are passionate about our MM's, as you are about your CV.

Parts for our cars are so hard to come by, that it does become frustrating to see them on a CV or GM when we cannot get them.

So, as you came into this thread, with guns drawn, be cautious on where you aim them.

I have not seen you this aggressive, and while you have been on this site a few months longer than me, I carry quite a bit more weight than you.

Keep this civil, or I will shut this down.

No one is hating on anyone. So, heaven forbid, your car gets hit, and your out of your ride for 2-3 months because they cannot find a Marauder specific part, just remember this post.

I say this because I have seen other members looking for parts and cannot find them, and thier cars wind up sitting in a shop forever or they get stuck with Marquis or VIc parts installed because none are available. Not that it's a big deal, but I'm thinking most of us would like to keep our cars in semi stock form with the correct body parts and what not.

If this were the case, why didn't you guys by Vics and make them Marauder clones? You bought Marauders because they are now at the same price point as the Vics and Marquis, which is what most of us have been saying.

If marauders were the holy grail and only mm owners were allowed to buy mm used parts thru some divine intervention I would get it, but that's not the case. 7 Years of my career was being the guy who ordered parts for my body shop, those parts at salvages are up for grabs for anyone. This guy might be borderline trolling our sight but the fact remains it's a free country and if a cv owner gets a deal on a mm bumper then he can take it and do what he wants. If I need a bumper I have a sick amount of resources and I'm honestly not worried about it

If this were the case, why didn't you guys by Vics and make them Marauder clones? You bought Marauders because they are now at the same price point as the Vics and Marquis, which is what most of us have been saying.

So, by your guys logic, you're hating on Vic owners by not supporting them by buying a Vic..... that is sarcasm, don't get all hurt over the last comment.

I'm on nobody side I'm just saying its foolish to be mad if anyone is. Have my opinion like everyone else. And I'm not hurt at all no need to be. :beer:

If anything everyone should be mad at you for buying all the parts up. :coolman:(sarcasm)

You damn marauder people do the same damn thng. You buy parts for your car that sits in the garage so real marauder owners can't get them when we need them because you guys are hoarding them all!

I wouldn't really call these collectible. One of my military trucks is worth more rusted out than most marauders. Restored it's worth more than any marauder out there. 4k total made when more were scrapped or given to foreign countries...

I'd rather Marauder owners buy up the parts, and hold them until real MM enthusiasts need them, than have the parts go on beat up old 150xxx mile plus Crown Vics or GMs..

Nobody wants a *****y old military truck for civilian use, so the Marauder will still have more of a collector's status..Where is the fansite for said POS rusted out military trucks other than hummers?

I'm not mad people buy the parts to put on their cars..its your money and they're up for grabs, but I would sure as hell be furious if I had to put CV or GM bumper covers on my MM because some asshat rear ends you and there are no parts because what was left all went to non MM cars.

Also, Marauder floor mats in a grand marquis or crown vic? Talk about lame posers..

Like I said, instead of crying at the CV owners for buying up Marauder parts, invest some time and money in aftermarket support so this is no longer an issue.

You guys like to throw money around when it comes to mods, yet when it comes to simplest things that are actually in demand it turns into a blame game.

How many people on this site run superchargers that cost over 5 grand? I think I will run out of fingers and toes if I started counting.

With all the high rollers on here, surely someone could talk to aftermarket parts manufacturers into making you some replica parts.

Marauders are no different from other cars, if there is demand for parts, there will be aftermarket support for them.

This is like the first automotive community that I've seen that makes such a big deal about other models using their parts. Cobra guys aren't crying that GT and V6 guys are buying up their bumpers. Impala SS guys aren't crying that Caprice owners are buying up their wheels, consoles, grilles and spoilers.

And why are you all so worried if someone makes a Marauder clone? If someone is looking for a Marauder, do you really think they won't know that it's a clone?

Serge took the words right outta my mouth.

The only one I don't understand is why CV people swap a marauder rear bumper cover, I sure as heck wouldnt waste money to have a Ford marauder bumper but even Serge pointed out that Summit sells a replica piece (albeit a steep price).

The cluster I can understand for the factory tach, the dash trim looks a bit better and the seats/console are a nice apperance upgrade. It's not like Marauder owners grab up every part thats for sale, I see countless clusters, consoles, rear finish panels and such that sit for sale for months before someone picks it up.

I work my ass off and turn no work down. I have only one hobby on a payed off car. I also do my own work and half the time fab my own parts. its not easy, nor fun most of the time, but I wouldn't ever have the money if I had to pay for work done. I wish I could sometimes! It's about priorities, not being rich. And also maybe driving beaters till my early thirties, waiting for the right time, money, and car.

I have no beefs here, just go easy on the labeling. Some of us are blue collar gear heads just like some of you.

You must not go on many different car forums. I remember a thread once on LS1tech from a guy thinking about fitting 4th gen Trans Am lights onto his 4th gen Camaro. SHITSTORM. There have been multiple threads in a similar vein asking about swapping front ends between the two aforementioned cars, and they've all ended the same way.

I'm not hugely bothered by the whole lack of availability thing (although I still easily see the validity of the concern there), I just can't get over how foolish it is to put badges from another car, especially a higher model car, on your car when it clearly isn't what you are now advertising that it is.

The problem is comments like his keep it boiling. Opinions were asked for on this thread by it being started.
Serge was the one that started hurling insults and like Spectragod said was generally acting like a twelve year old.

When we are called rich, elitists snobs and our cars that we love are demeaned on our site, how do you think we'll respond?

The Panther is a great format, I've had a Vic sport and 2 Marauders. I don't begrudge anyone for doing anything to their car.
You can say what you want about MM owners hoarding parts, but everytime I've needed something someone was willing to part with their stash. The more the market gets diluted, the tougher it is to keep our cars whole, I believe that is the point we are all trying to make.
Serge is the one that took this thread negative, and I don't care how long he has been on the site, he should show more class than posting his clever little pictures and quips that insult us

My invite still stands for you to bring that low-mileage, fast-as-hell, bad-ass Black MM of yours to Louisville.

Cash and/or title.

We'll line 'em up.

Bring it!

I need a DD.

I never said my car was fast, the rest of your description will stand though.:D I will though exercise my proxy and let Doomie race you in his car.:cool:

You're not getting out of this that easily.

The vast majority of the time, you are the first one bashing the DTR as being slowest of the 4 colors. Now, you suggest my engine is smoking?

Hmmm...

You will agree as well to say Black is the fastest color.

Bring your MM down to Louisville, and we'll line 'em up.

Put up, or shut up.

The problem is comments like his keep it boiling. Opinions were asked for on this thread by it being started.
Serge was the one that started hurling insults and like Spectragod said was generally acting like a twelve year old.

When we are called rich, elitists snobs and our cars that we love are demeaned on our site, how do you think we'll respond?

The Panther is a great format, I've had a Vic sport and 2 Marauders. I don't begrudge anyone for doing anything to their car.
You can say what you want about MM owners hoarding parts, but everytime I've needed something someone was willing to part with their stash. The more the market gets diluted, the tougher it is to keep our cars whole, I believe that is the point we are all trying to make.
Serge is the one that took this thread negative, and I don't care how long he has been on the site, he should show more class than posting his clever little pictures and quips that insult us

I also really like the look of his car, it really pops, do I just wanna see it on the track

Maybe he will get cocky enough to try and run me

I'm proposing this at Marauderville

We do bracket racing to get the best of each color, then run king of the mountain style to determine the fastest color

Bob, Jake and Chris can be judges, in other words you can't run

I challenge one guy to a race, and now I got S/C'd guys thinking I wanna run them.

Never raced the car in my life, but would run Eric.

That said, even if he makes it to Louisville, he won't bring his.

You can borrow my "garage queen" it may keep up with the S/C, I'll have to unload all the parts I have been hoarding first though.:lol:

Thanks for the offer Barry but when the Black car comes out to race, if ever they will both know it.:cool:

Though I would never race for pinks or big money I might go for bragging rights + dinner and a glass or two of 25+ year old scotch.:)

I'd rather Marauder owners buy up the parts, and hold them until real MM enthusiasts need them, than have the parts go on beat up old 150xxx mile plus Crown Vics or GMs..

Nobody wants a *****y old military truck for civilian use, so the Marauder will still have more of a collector's status..Where is the fansite for said POS rusted out military trucks other than hummers?

I'm not mad people buy the parts to put on their cars..its your money and they're up for grabs, but I would sure as hell be furious if I had to put CV or GM bumper covers on my MM because some asshat rear ends you and there are no parts because what was left all went to non MM cars.

Also, Marauder floor mats in a grand marquis or crown vic? Talk about lame posers..

Maybe you should look for yourself and get your head out of your ass. More people want and have old military trucks than marauders. :rolleyes:

Steelsoldiers.com is just one of these forums 43k+ members vs. MM.nets measly 5k+ :flamer:
