    My Craigslist 1987 Grand Marquis

    Found this one on Craigslist for $2,499. This is my third Grand Marquis, my past ones being an '85, '86 and now my 87.

    Everything stock, well kept "old lady car". Died and was sold in estate sale. Guy bought it and sold it to me a year later. 58,810 miles when I bought it a month ago. Enjoy!

              What he said ^^^^

              That interior looks almost white, but I assume it's actually beige?

                  What a creampuff! Normally I would look at a car like that and begin thinking about where to start the modifications, but that one is nice enough to leave alone. Just keep it clean. Very nice!

                    Thank you everyone, I am from Michigan, so pretty much all older cars are shittyy and rusted. But this one was one of the exceptions.

                    I always said once I find once with a good body, I want to paint it black, but the color has started to grow on me. There are a few rust spots, but they are so small, you can't even see them from away. Probably get those taken care of and just keep her clean. I want to take her around the country net summer once I save up a "just in case" repair fund.

                      That's especially impressive for Michigan! Since we don't have inspections, we have a state sponsored campaign to deliberately rust old cars to death instead. I couldn't even start my car one day last winter because a big chunk of salty ice was jamming the TV linkage!

                        Nice find, even more so for a MI car.

                          Yeah man Michigan is a bad state to owns cars in. Because of the shitty ass road (especially Metro Detroit Area) and the salt and snow.
