Bought her in San Diego a couple of weeks ago but with the number of cars waiting to be transported I could not get a hauler after waiting 2 weeks and offering up to $1K to move her to Texas. I flew out Wednesday, logged 1,400 miles in 20 hours but she's home now.

The trip was a slight whippin' but it was a great bonding opportunity and these are the best damn cruisers. Now to start modding her. Slowly but surely I will get her exactly where I want her; ultimately a twin-screw Trilogy is in store.

Paid $15K, 53K miles, fair exterior, excellent interior, bone stock. Runs like a champ.

The blues can draw a little more $ since there were only 327 produced but it was worth the wait.

Took this shot while I was cleaning out the garage, my favorite thus far.

Thanks guys.

The stance of the stang is 100% due to 04sleeper's fine work. Cut coupe springs, the ride is perfect too, it's exactly what I was looking for in ride quality, handling and stance.

Kevin, I need your help with the finish on the MM now...and springs, and...someday the blower:rockon:

They made black, silver birch, red and a few hundred in blue. It's a fun cruiser. Lidio tune and tinted windows are done, need a good intake and will lower her an inch then save for a Trilogy blower to open her up a bit. I needed a big car to haul the family around and this baby is perfect.

With the fuel price loonacy right now you can take your pick of Marauders, there are several supercharged MM's for sale at good prices.

Kinda off topic here, but wans't there an engine problem with the 03's? I think Ford did a recall on them.
