Saw a Mark VIII tonight

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Dmaup

On my way home I saw two white gen 2 mark's. Just wondering if they happened to be members on here or not. The first one was on I-355 and north avenue exit. The neon wasn't working and she just didn't look like a person that would be a part of an online forum, but who knows I have been wrong before. The second was a younger guy on North Avenue and Bloomingdale, he kept checking out the cobrastars and gave me the nod and as my turn light went green I let him listen to the pipes as I drove off.

I was just curious if this was anyone on here. This the first time I have been in the suburbs in two weeks so I thought it unusual that I saw two marks when I hardly ever see any.

Thats all I got.......

That's what he said and now he wants to build one lol. I told him to save the trouble and buy a mark but for some reason he likes the bird.

Yeah there used to be one that sat at a building on swift between north and army trail that was beat up and it made me sad looking at it every day. The air ride was all messed up. The rear was like 4 feet in the air and the front was dragging

There was a white gen 1 sitting for sale by Koppers at a little dealer ship right next to uncle andys pancake place

Posted by: mespock

Well did you purchase it?

Posted by: papa bear

No i did not buy her the price was a bit high like $5000 it sat there this whole year, if i ever get over in that area again i will see if it is still there but my car eats up enough of my time its a love hate relationship and to bring home another woman would just cause problems

Saw a gen 1 mark viii at north ave auto parts/junkyard in villa park tonight,it looks like it might be for sale because it is sitting in front but it was sitting low and was covered with snow,my guess it was red and if they dont sell it they will just part it out.

I pass it every day. They want $1200 out the door. If I remember right, I think its a 94 and the car has about 165k on it.

There was also one much like it sitting for sale on Hawthorne ave in West Chicago, not far from Diamonds. Much cleaner and it was only 1750.
