So I was bored at work and...I think if I was making the series, these would be my upgrade rules (off the top of my head)……I know I’m missing a ton…
Anyone feel like adding more? Or am I completely off the reservation?

I've owned five Panthers in my life - still have two. I love the idea of this but I would lay down a few ground rules. Otherwise, like people said, you'll get a Marauder sneaking in, it won't be very spec, etc. I like the idea of a maximum $1500 purchase price. That would not include new tires, brakes, etc. I would…

Have to +1 this post.

Hey N4RC! I'm well, y'know...over on CVN/CVCA/MMN/GMN, etc...

It's a '75-'77 Plymouth Fury Salon. The door handles give it away.

I think we have a clear winner here:

This song made it to Cleveland and is still in regular rotation on our classic rock dinosaurs...

Plenty of it on Jalopnik for the most part, though I always do my part to keep it alive!

Dun-dun-DUNNNNNNN!

Hard to say. I see a lot of wheels I'd also add on my list - '70s Pontiac T/A honeycomb wheels, some beautiful Porsche wheels, the always-classic Cragar S/S. I'd also put the vented Mopar vented police dog dish caps/steelies on my list, as well as the Pontiac 8-lug, Olds Rallye, and the Magnum 500. But I guess since…

+1 on the 2003-04 Marauder (here's a picture of an actual production car, not the concept). You can get a nice one with around 100k on it for $6-8k now, parts are plentiful and cheap since it shares many common parts with other Ford vehicles, 302HP stock (and a ton more if you Eatonize), and 25mpg hwy - all from a…

In reference to #1 - "Limited"...I own a 2004 Grand Marquis LS Limited Edition. Underneath, it's all standard LS trim - granny gears, single exhaust, digital HVAC, analog gauges, CD/cassette, overhead console.

That was dairy funny.

As previously stated, Otis was on Stax (not Motown) :D

I resolve to not let my 109k Mercury Marauder turn into a beater. It has seen a lot of open-road cruising and occasional dragstrip time. This past year, I cooked the driver's side head and lost compression. This was in July and didn't get it back on the road until late October (rebuilding in my 1-car garage [or yard,…

In Cleveland, a favorite during inclement weather is to put your hazards (4-way flashers) on. Like, I get it, we're all going 10m.p.F'n.h in a white out. Must you complicate it by putting on a goddamn light show and further distracting me from the road conditions?

With regards to the Interceptor concept, and specifically this: "Edmunds reported that Ford "is completely focused on fuel efficiency, a change in strategy which leaves no room for large rear-wheel drive sedans." Now, cop cars are Tauruses, which are nice, but they're just not the same."

Where in my response did I indicate that I hadn't driven any of the three cars I mentioned? Oh, right, I didn't.

I never thought much about it, but I definitely should be connected to Firebirds. My dad had one most of the time while I was growing up. Whether it was the metallic blue '75 he wrapped around a telephone pole and rebuilt using a '77 front clip (1982-1987), or the white '87 with a 2.8 V6 with 17k miles (1988-1989), or…

...how did I know you'd post on this?
