No, the wood shifter was definitely not factory for 94, although the wood trim around the shifter/console is factory for 94, and all 1993-94 Marks had single-DIN stereos.

Mmm... Wish my 72 Mark IV looked that good! One of the best years of the Mark Series, in my opinion. Definitely the best year for the Mark IV.

Hey Tony, I have a left 96 LSC headlight housing, but I'm not interested in selling. Instead, I'm looking for a "mate" for it as well. I just thought I would suggest that maybe if neither of us find an "orphan" headlight for the side we need, maybe one of us could find a set of both lights and...

Guy around here (actually, I think he was in Tennessee) is trying to sell a gen-I Mark VIII engine with 120k+ miles for $1,500. If they were worth that much, I'd be sitting on a small fortune, considering I've got 4 of them, 2 of which have similar miles to the one he's selling. I guess it can't...

http://winstonsalem.craigslist.org/cto/3988199545.html Anybody consistently get 40 MPG out of their Mark VIII? Obviously, you can see 40 if you watch the Instant MPG readout and you're coasting (hell, my Jaguar will show 99 Instant MPG when coasting at times, but that doesn't mean it gets 99...

I remember them being talked about YEARS ago over at FordvsChevy.com, where there were mostly Mark VII guys. I think one member over there may have even had one. As rare as they are, I know they were only mainly looked at as an oddity, and not really something very desirable, due to their issues...

+1 It's not a bad looking car, but to get a plane ticket from NC to Portland, then plan on driving it all the way home, IDK. This is just me, but personally, I'd feel kind of iffy about driving any 1994 model car that far having just bought it from a stranger and not being familiar with that...

I guess letting everyone know what colors I have the most of would make this a little easier. As far as interior parts, I have mostly black and "mocha" (93 color; 2-tone tan and brown; code AH). Of course, I've got other parts in other colors as well, from left over pieces from parts...

Sorry. I have a black steering wheel still in one of my parts cars, but no gray wheel.

http://winstonsalem.craigslist.org/cto/3782108810.html Not a VIII, but a nice, low-mileage 92 LSC SE. A little overpriced, maybe (or who knows? Maybe not, considering how rare the SE's are getting). Nice to look at, at least.

One more parts listing: http://charlotte.craigslist.org/pts/3747987155.html Not sure if $100 for a complete set of used "good" air-ride airbags is a good deal or not. Guess it depends on how much "good" you think is left in them, but thought someone here might be interested, since they're...

http://fayetteville.craigslist.org/cto/3673831235.html Mechanic's special at a decent price for what it is if someone's near the NC coast.

Not a car, but thought someone local to NC might be interested: http://charlotte.craigslist.org/pts/3737219682.html I E-mailed him a couple days ago, and he said the rims are "silver", so I'm guessing they're aluminum/polished aluminum, since he didn't specifically say "chrome", but IDK. I...

Hey, guys, sorry I've been MIA for a while. I've been pretty busy so far this year, so I haven't been on here as much. Unfortunately, I don't have any performance upgrade parts (other than a few pieces in my personal stash I'm keeping for when I find another Mark), no grille (I'm actually on the...

+1 That's what I've always said/thought based on how they compared to KNOWN color temps I'd seen them compared to (in person, not in pics). For example, when I would pull my '72 Mark IV or Jaguar (I've put aftermarket 8000k HID's in both) up next to my parents' LSC at night, the 8000k's are...
