    Just became a Marauder owner!

    Wanted one of these when they first came out, but the timing for me and my family just wasn't right. Now it is and I am the fortunate owner of a low mileage (47k) well maintained stock 2003 black model (#2920) that spent all except the last year in dry Nevada. The car I grew up in as a kid was a 65 Monterey, and my first car was a 71 Comet. I helped my Dad work on both of these including engine rebuilds when I was a teenager. I always liked 50's and 60's Fords, Mercurys and gulp - a few bow tie models. I'm a member of the AACA and I currently have a 64 Galaxie 500XL convertible, 60 Chevy Impala hardtop, and a project 64 Fairlane Sport Coupe. I like restoring stuff to stock, as it was at the dealership. I pretty much have learned to do most things myself except for final body and paint work. In three years when the 03 Marauder is 25 years old, I look forward to taking it to the AACA Eastern divisional meet (show) at Hershey PA. I appreciate all of the great threads on this forum and am glad to now be a part of it. Sam in MD
