1978 mercury marquis, this is a really authentic, great condition marquis sedan. It is the top of the line with the 400ci engine. The car is very original in all aspects and is a rare and wonderful find. This is a genuine 1 owner car that spent its whole life in the florida, coddled and was never used in the snow. It was "grand dad's" pride and joy until he passed away. It is showing a very modest 67,100 miles. So pristine, she looks like 10,000 miles. The car has all original fitments including a new (old) radio with iphone input and usb plug. The car has been recently gone over and everything is in good operating condition. A list of replaced or serviced parts is included at the bottom. The engine runs smooth and powerful, with no oil leaks. Brakes are great and the car stops sure. All features and functions work well with the heater hot and a/c ice cold. All windows, mirrors, radio, wipers, exterior and interior lights work as they should. The car was rust treated at time of new delivery by the mercury dealer back in 1978. The body is entirely rust free and the underside is clean. The whole car is very straight, accident free and has never had any body repair. This is evidenced by the original factory stickers and markings on the inside edges and under the hood. The paint appears to be completely factory original and looks fantastic. There are minor nicks and chips but nothing else - not even a ding! It is very shiny, consistent and simply looks great from close and afar. All rubber, glass and trim fixtures are in wonderful condition without any signs of fading, marks or scratches. The bumpers have early signs of pitting but no rust! The interior is absolutely fantastic! This is the hall mark of this grand marquis and makes the car look like she is only a couple of years old. The dash is prefect without any sun-fading or cracking. All the faux wood and chrome finishings are in good condition. The dash cluster is like new. In fact the whole dash looks like new! The steering column without scratches (even by the key) and the steering wheel excellent without a single crack. The fabric seats are in simply amazing presentation and condition, totally clean and without even a thread pulled. Carpets, door panels, handles, switches, knobs and every little item is virtually perfect (carpet does have one small tear). The interior is without doubt a 9 out of 10. The car all round is very original in all respects and a great driver. Price: $14,995. 00 as part of a recent freshen-up the following items were replaced or serviced: replaced: rear main engine seal, front crank seal, water pump, fuel pump, antifreeze. Air Conditioning
