1979 Mercury Marquis Colony Park

So.... We bought this car. Now I need you guys to help me find some hard to find parts. Please!?!? Lol

 

What parts do you need?

 

I'm sure there will be more as time passes. But as of the moment my hard to find parts are weatherstripping and the fuel level sensor. Going to drop the tank in the next few days and see if I can get the gauge reading properly without replacing the part as I'm having a hard time finding it. The gauge reads, just incorrectly. Oh yeah, would like to find a steering wheel too. There is a crack in this one and the center pad is missing.

 

Billygoat -
Congratulations on your acquisition, and welcome to the Station Wagon Forum.
Post up and 'introduction' thread in the 'Welcome Wagon' section so that we can get to know you.

As to the parts you need, your best bet is to start scrounging local 'pick your part' yards. Finding a yellow (I think - ?) steering wheel in good condition might be impossible. You can buy another wheel with a good center pad and paint it to match using S.E.M. interior paint. Cover the cracked rim with a cover, or pay to have it restored - there are companies that do this.
