What are the odds?

[ford nut]

I am driving home from work and what do I see?
Up ahead is a 93 nordic blue Mark.

So I do the famous 4 to 2 shift and come up fast until I am even with him and slow down hard so we match speed and sure enough it has a aquamarine Int.
The guy driving it looks at me with a WTF look then pops a big grin.
I give him a big smile and nod and off I go with another 4 to 2 shift " I know it just kills the trans" but I don't give a $hit.

He follows me until we hit Hwy 100 and he goes north.

I never see Marks let alone a clone of mine.
When I do they never seem to notice.

Put a smile on my face.

Hell Ya!!

I saw a black LSC today, and a red first gen yesterday..... Spring is finally here!!!

 

[panthermike]

That's cool, I hardly ever see mark's at all around here. When I do I get excited. Everyone around me is like "WTF is a Mark VIII"?

Sweet!

Though next time just drop into third with the OD button. Much easier on the trans.

 

[kustomizingkid]

Ha... or get yourself an SCT tune that will stop you from being able to do a 4,2

I know but my OD button is on the fritz.
I have to pull it apart and fix the broken wire.
Lazy I guess.....Its on the to do list

 

[Aquabrit]

Good 'ole O/D wire! Lol.

I eliminated my O/D button and wired to the TC switch. (not for everyone but works for me) I just need to fill the hole!

I think I've only seen one other Nordic blue - was back up in NJ.

Did you see that one being parted out on Ebay? Shame. Looked like a nice car.

Yea thats the same thing I say to my G/F when I try to stick it in her a$$.....hahahaha j/k, I see a few marks around here, none are enthusiasts, mostly mid aged woman or guys who don't take care of them.

[CobraStar_LS8]

LOL

 

[ford nut]

LOL no he looks just like me poor fool !
Two of my brothers are flat out Chev freaks.

The oldest one even talked my dad into putting in a SBC into a 40 ford coupe.
My dad and I got into a fight over it.
I did a ton of work on that car and gave him the 9 inch that went under it, when he put the SBC into it I wouldn't work on it anymore.
I still don't care for the car that much and never drive it, it just sits.

It was years ago seems so silly now.
My brother has a Pic of the 40 on his shops home page in my sig.
