What a beautiful car. I love these cars, did you do any mods on body or drivetrain other then the rims? Please post more pics in your album.

I had a 1998 Pearl White with Duo-Tan interior Collector's-Edition. Made at the very end of the run.
I never ever had a car that I had so much trouble with. Every 6 weeks (on average) I had a major problem. Everytime I took it in, they gave me a Town Car to use. It took a while, but I finally fell for the Town Car & privately sold the Mark for $17,000 when it was 5 years old, with 18,000 miles on it. The T.C. is now 3 years old, and has yet to have problem #1. Mileage is 7,000.

I made an exhaust for it. I used mandrel bent pipe and custom made a true dual exhaust. I used a Magnaflow 2 pipe in- two pipe out muffler with a built in "X". I welded that to the two down pipes from the engine. I then ran true duals out the back. I used no other mufflers, so there are none at the back. I welded the stock tips to the pipes. I have 3.73s for it, but haven't installed yet. I also will be adding a better air filter, but haven't done that either. I did paint the taillights and grille as this was not a LSC...but I painted it that way now. I put a Cobra emblem on the front fenders which goes with the Cobra "R" wheels and a SVT emblem on the taillights. The tires are 255/45/17s. This is just a daily driver. I have 14 cars..so it is tough to stay up on all of them...pictures?? well can't promise any soon..just too much going on..too many cars to work on..my own included :o) I really want to install the gears soon..so I have to make time.
