Please only serious buyers this time! Here's the story regarding the vehicle: I purchased this vehicle in excellent condition with just over 40,000 original miles. I had new brakes and tires put on and had the exhaust system repaired. I made the mistake of giving the vehicle to my son-in-law who owned it for approximately 9 months. He evidently ran the engine low on oil and never changed the oil since I gave it to him. When he notified me the engine was knocking it was too late. When I took the vehicle back I found the trunk had been damaged from putting something too large in it and the automatic draw-down trunk bent. It is water tight though and easily repaired. I also found he had evidently scraped the passenger side on something. (see photo). He also replaced the original radio! Obviously I was steamed to the max since I cherish the Mark VII and hate to see one abused. I nearly lived in a Mark VII for 12 years having owned a 1985 and a 1987 LSC. I took this vehicle back from him on a title only and stored it in my barn out of the weather. Now I simply need more room in my barn. Please do not bid on this vehicle if you do not intend to follow through with the purchase!
