New to the Board - Introduction

[wido78]

Hey guys I thought I would take a second to introduce myself... I am obviously new to the board and to be honest the reason I am joining is because I am preparing to sell a car that some of you may have seen or heard about - 1995 Twin-Turbo Grand Marquis

I used to race quite a bit in a couple of Mustangs and then bought this car from a friend of mine that was one of two guys that previously owned the vehicle. The original owner and builder of the car is also a friend, but the owner immediately prior to me is the person that installed the turbo system.

This car is a lot of fun to drive and has been fun to own, but it is time for me to move on to some other things so I am going to sell it and thought it would be worth while to let some of the folks in the CV, Marquis, MM world know that it is available.

I don't have any recent pics of the car available quite yet, but will be working on them in the next week or so. However I have attached a pic of it in action from a couple of years ago.

Look forward to talking with everyone...

- Turbos are from a 1985 Turbo Coupe
- .63 Exhaust housing

3.73 gears

Best time is 11.74 at 116 MPH (many, many times) - I have not raced it since the new motor. I have only driven it as a daily driver, as I didn't want to mess with it.

I also replaced the "original" V10 about 18 months ago with a fresh '03 motor because the "original" spun a rod bearing after 160K of use. The current motor has about 60K on it and only 15K in this car.

It is a very reliable car, as the previous owner entered into Hot Rod Magazine's Drag Week and it ran without any issues.
