1985 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park

Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park (1985)
for sale

Price: US $5,500.00

Description:

Do not buy this car if you do not like attention!
Guaranteed to get smiles, waves, thumbs-ups, and comments at gas stations. We've even had notes left on the windshield.
Not many of these on the road anymore, and I was happy to help this one survive a bit longer. Purchased 5 years ago and fixed it up a bit for a daily-driver for my wife and kids. (Yes, this has the kid-favorite jump seats in the back, which can be folded down along with the back seat for plenty of storage… I've routinely carried my mountain bike back there).
Maaco paint job is just a couple years old, with custom real wood veneer (Cherry, stained & varnished) accents along the rockers and tailgate.
The good:
classic wagon (you'll hear Family Truckster comments from total strangers)seats 75.0 V8 motor (302)
runs like a sewing machineplush leather seats
LS model was top-of-the line: auto headlights, auto temp control, opera lights, cornering lights, etcnot too high mileage for 30 year-old carnew heater core (that was not a fun job)aftermarket sound system (CD, aux input, 6x9s in the rear, hidden amp, remote)
The bad:
classic old-car leaky; drips when parked
A/C doesn't work — I prefer windows down on these old cars, so never even looked into it (fuse? motor? compressor? don't know)headliner starting to droop a bitbottom cushion of back seat torn; we use a color-coordinated Mexican blanket (looks great)driver's door needs to be locked with key (all other doors lock with power)
Located in Golden, CO. Buyer responsible for pick-up or shipping coordination.
