indy82z Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Selling a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis. The car was purchased new by my wife's grandfather who passed it down to my wife's father who eventually passed it down to my son who is just getting his license and is unable to drive such a "big" car. The vast majority of the 140 some thousand miles came very early when the car was driven regularly from Columbus to Houston Texas where they lived. The car was passed on to my father in law who rarely drove the car over the last 15 or so years. It was always garage kept and never driven in winter. When we were talking about it last week, he mentioned that the car probably had not even been wet in the last 5-6 years. It is a really nice car, no rust, runs quiet (5.0 motor) and has power everything which I believe it all works. The only thing with the car is that it is a little cold blooded and needs to warm up a little before you drive it, but I would not be surprised if it did not still have the original plugs and wires on it. I have changed the oil one a year (again probably about 200-300 miles) for the last about 10 years and it was always maintained before that. The wheels and tires were swapped 2 years ago and the original aluminum wheels started to corrode and the leaked so he swapped the current ones on it as it was always intended for my one son and he thought he would like it more when those on it. I don't see any rust on the car and the interior is mint. Light blue exterior, dark blue interior. Radio was swapped for a CD player at some point but outside of radio and wheels, all original. Asking $2500 for it. Not a Ford guy or I would slap historical tags on it and enjoy it in the summer. I have attached a few pictures of the car. It is located in Gahanna. PM or email if you are interested. http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj114/indy82z/IMG_7458.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj114/indy82z/IMG_7457.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj114/indy82z/IMG_7460.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy82z Posted November 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Here are a few more pics. I took the car for a drive yesterday. It fired right up and ran great. It's a little dirty as it has been sitting out the last 6 weeks.. http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj114/indy82z/20141128_143744.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj114/indy82z/20141128_143759.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj114/indy82z/20141128_143835.jpg Let me know if anyone is interested.
