Hey guys money issues have just about done me in.I have to sell my Mark.Its a 93,139K on the clock,almost 140.Runs excellent engine doesnt miss a beat,Doesnt leak(recently had the Oil filter adapter gasket changed)Has a ton of new front end parts.Bearings,Tie rods,Brakes,Alignment.Air ride works perfect.No rust,A few dings 2 that are a little bigger.The car needs some stuff.
Needs both UCAs
Needs a Ujoint(has some play)
Has trans shudder.But I am taking it friday morning to get the system purged and MerconV put in,Should fix it.Worked on my other car
Interior is Average,Has some normal wear,But it isnt trashed by any means.
I just drove the car round trip yesterday from Baltimore to Scranton PA.Used 1 tank of gas to and from.Car is tuned perfectly and runs excellent.It will need rotors in front as there is a little pulsation.The underside of the car is very clean
No signs of any rust anywhere.Check engine comes on sometimes.Im assuming an 02.Never had it checked though.Temp stays real low and cool.I would drive the car anywhere .But the UCA's definatly need to be replaced.I need to get $1500 FIRM.I know its worth that.I know what parts go for on ebay and that is what will happen if I cant sell it in 2 weeks.But the car is way too nice for that.Tires are great and it just passed PA emissions and inspection.I know this isnt the right forum but I was hoping to get some exposure here first.This isnt the end for me.I plan on paying the bills I have to now and buying another one later.Financial reasons is the ONLY reason I am selling this.It was going in for UCA's next month but crap isnt going to well for me.I live 10 mins north of Scranton PA.Thats in the Northeast.Email me if you or anyone else interested.Clean title and carfax to go with it.
Call me if you want.I am listing in the for sale section too,1 weeks for LVC folks then off to ebay whole.570-254-6219.Thanks
That isnt a leak under the car,I just washed it.

I would if this was June. Heather says she wants another Mark VIII. Middle Daughter has taken over the 93 and drives it daily to school.
Heather was going to get a little 4 banger for gas mileage but the other day she drove one and that changed her mind.

Mark VIII's are worth more than $1500 to any sane person. Keeping it was the best thing you could have done.
