This seems like a wise choice for your criteria. Interior parts (like a rear seat) have to be all over junkyards. How's the engine bay look to work in?

I'm not exactly sure I see the point of complaining about insufficient hot-rod potential for a Mercury Grand Marquis. Drive it like the road sofa it was always intended to be and the engine should be more than sufficient.

Comedy "smooth" option would be the 300ci inline 6

Is there any real difference for shifter location besides personal preference?

In man-trans cars, the console linkage's extra complexity tends to make it very sloppy, which can lead to botched shifts. I imagine the same goes for cable-operated column shift auto trans, it just matters a whole lot less.

I mean I guess someone could be manually shifting their auto-trans Crown Vic, but it's somewhat of an empty gesture.

On the other hand I can only imagine the comedy setups their customers have tried to pull. The earlier-posted 'car pulling a car pulling a cargo trailer' doesn't even begin to cover it.
