Check out this MM!

[ghost]

With a little help from Photochop, here's how I'd like to see the MM. The car is good-looking as is, no offense intended, just my two cent's worth. ;)

One word....WOW!!!

[robotek911]

Looks almost as good as this one!!!!!

[UncleLar]

Chopped top is very subtle,the car looks sweet.

[ghost]

Thanks guys.

Chopped the top, moved the side-view mirrors, smoothed out the C-pillar, lowered the car, blacked-out the windows, added clear corners and widened the tires. I think that's it. :D

Looks suspiciously like an SS to me...........

[Mike M]

It looks really cool!

[Jeff]

Looks more like a Lincoln.

[LincMercLover]

Looks more like an SS...

[Bigdogjim]

Gotta love the big Mercs! Looks good. Now go get one and do it!

[cheddar 96 SS]

Looks like something the mafia would step out of :up:

[ghost]

LOL, it does look kind of SS-ish, but what do you expect from me? :)

--------------------

Sarge, mensrea gave me permission prior to The Sale and our contract clearly states its transferability to new ownership. It also says that I can borrow it. Yeah, that's right. For weeks even.

--------------------

The C-pillar is actually more Cadillac STS than Impala SS, but I had to give the MM a more aero look.

--------------------

{BTW, jrzygrl, my girlfriend is from Jersey. Best girlfriend I've ever had. Might even keep her if she behaves.}

Now that I have everyone's approval that it looks better than a regular MM :P , time to go buy one and start the cutting & welding.

Note to self: get $27.000.

That's not your car, Sarge. Everyone knows your stance on window tints...

:lol:

[TripleTransAm]

What's with all this 'lowering' crap, anyway? I predict the next wave of auto customization will involve something 180 degrees from what we've been discussing....

[Bigdogjim]

Oh please tell me thats photo shop :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Marauder57]

Does look SS like but still very cool...would not mind seeing the Ford version look like that...maybe call it the Pirate or the Pillager...or the Raider....some wierd assaulting name...... :D

TTA shouldn't you have a rope ladder or something to get in and out of your Bigfoot Marauder?

[TripleTransAm]

First of all, a thumbs up to Ghost for that cool customization of the MM (except for the rear... it does look too much like an SS! :D ).

It got me thinking... what would GTA-style wheels (inspired by the gold lace BBS wheels of the 80s) look like on the MM (complete with wider tires, as Ghost included in his MM concept)?

I stole some shots of my own GTA's wheels, removed the gold color off the center laces, and slapped them on some widened tires.

The GTA wheels look good, really good!

Nice Shop job, Steve! :up:

Looks great though. SS is a great looking car as well!

[ghost]

I heard that Dennis is developing a 12-inch lift kit for the MM. Don't forget to specify 8-lugs with your cross-drilled rotors if your intent is off-roading. :D

Don't laugh.
A few years back I sold a 1965 Mustang convertible to a guy, and that's exactly what he did to it

Which would be a WAG, because I never stated my preference.

Make no presumptions, you might be surprised...

[Ross]

Look, all of those mods are just WAY too aggressive looking. Everyone on this site is much too conservative in our car tastes for anything aggressive! I'm thinking of replacing the engine with a nice, conservative 4 cylinder. :alone:

I recall Mensrea's car was tinted fairly heavily + I also recall your outline of the Chicago police force's outlook on tint = I decided to bust your chops about your tinted car. :D

[Marauder57]

TTA,

The BBS look is pretty sweet on the MM..I think I would like it better if I knew for instance that the car had been upgraded to something like 450 to 500 HP like Sarges....then the look seems more justified....but looks very cool....

Now as for the BigFoot MM....that is down right scary.......With that think jacked so high you would have to look down to see the traffic light..... :D

I didn't even get into the parking lot before an Inspector flagged me. By sheer luck, I had all my Kenny Brown papers with me to prove the tint was not aftermarket, but I expect I'll have to show this again, so, copies are in the glove box.



LOL! Oh my God, what an amazing angle!!!! Kenny Brown tints your windows, therefore it's a 'factory' tint!!!!! What luck!!
Just being a devil's advocate here: if Illinois has a tint law, wouldn't any manufacturer be obliged to adhere to these specifications in order to be allowed to sell their product there? ie. if the KB Marauder S comes with a dark tint as part of the 'package' and contravenes Illinois tint laws, would he be liable for selling an out-of-spec car?


You were busting my chops /Steve? When?


Way to deflate a playful jab, Sarge! :D ie. if you couldn't tell it was a jab, it wasn't much of a jab after all!

If she's from Jersey, she probably won't behave!

You presume much my friend....

[jgc61sr2002]

Sarge - Does K.B. change the glass or is it a film like most of us had installed?

Oh come on, didn't you see the little gremlin with his tongue sticking out? That was supposed to mean that it wasn't a serious comment. You chicks from Jersey....I just don't know...:P

:D

Eric

[Patrick]

Yes it looks like SS to me. But If I had the money at the time I would have bought one! The SS is still a cool looking car, but I would traded it so fast for my MM!!!!!

Back to my favor. Can you post a pic of the MM with silver tint on all windows, except the front and black out the headlights?? And no Please no more off roading MM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks Patrick

Eric Well, just ask me and I'll tell ya' !!!!!!!!!!!!:D

[prchrman]

Speaking of SSs there is a primo 94 or 95 I think for sale in my neck of the woods, bench seat, black 13,000 miles, $20,000. Looks like a steal to me butno funds. Anyone interested will get phone.

SS's didn't come with bench seats. Might be a clone.

Well, it IS a Marauder, albeit some minor changes, most notably the c-pillar. The rest? Marauder.

It must look like an SS because it looks so tough. :P

:D

I went shopping this morning, took the MM. I was at a light when some younger dudes in a lowered white Caprice (late one, with open wheel well) drove by and I swear I thought the passengers were gonna fall out of the car. The front passenger was at least half out of the car, looking back to check out my ride.

I love this window tint. :coolman:

[ghost]

The MM deserves all the looks it gets. ;)
