OS1,
First time I looked I wasn't sure what I was seeing but on closer examination I see the Lincoln emblem mid bulge on a light colored deck quite clearly in the middle of the back passengers compartment. Like your pix. Lincolnlov

It does look kind of strange doesn't it? But yes, there was a Mark VII trunk lid (decklid) in the back seat of my Mark VII.

For the past year, I have owned between one and three parts cars at a time. The one that I keep in a garage is being dismantled by me by hand. Yeah, I know that some of you lugnuts do this stuff in your sleep with half a load on, but I'm slower. Anyway, I've been telling people for MONTHS that if you need a part ... come and get it for free. All I want is the transmission and some trim.

Joe T from Connecticut took me up on that deal and drove down (400 miles) for breakfast and a free decklid. The least I could do was save him the additional mile of driving out to the garage to get it so ... I picked it up in the dead of night before the breakfast and said, "Damn. That fits so nice it would make for a great picture ...", and it did

Dang, I'm in New Jersey and just bought a MARK VII that has a few issues. I'll have to take you up on that offer.

Your a great guy John.

You want to go home and rethink your life.
You want to buy another Mark VII."
