Lets Cold Start The 1976 Mercury Marquis Brougham - 15 Degrees Fahrenheit

[@officehelp]

I owned 3 old Lincolns of the same era. Big pool tables on the road. I miss those days.

Nice sturdy car. Great to see one of these again

[@michaeltutty1540]

Beautiful car. Excellent that it started on the first try. Absolute genius keeping it original.

[@RelicToWreck]

I do my best.

I have a 1976 LTD Brougham. I love these huge boats, especially from the Bicentennial year. Mine is a 351M. New sub here. In very good shape for always being a MN car

@dancline2143 Thanks for subscribing!!!! As time goes by, I realize these older machines are just so much more reliable than their modern equivalent. Kind of like 'that old fridge' that keeps running.

[@dancline2143]

I know what you mean. My daily is a 95 Grand Marquis, almost 340,000, still runs like new

Потрясающий автомобиль из давнего времени, когда деревья были большими - это настольгия по настоящим машинам!

[@RelicToWreck]

удобно, а также! Привет из Америки!

Sounds very healthy

Uncle Buck saves the day

[@RelicToWreck]

There's a guy who recently did a Uncle Buck tribute car in minnesota. You should check it out, it's pretty cool.

[@kennethwallace4338]

@@RelicToWreck love the oil mod he made on it. From 30 years in the grave to a sick ride.

[@AaronGranda-g5r]

Your basic steering wheel went on every other fullsize and midsize ford between 73 and 78.

[@BorisVolanti]

Question. I'm buying a 76 Marquis, how did you hook up the tach and other gauges?

[@RelicToWreck]

There are a lot of good videos out there.

[@bobbyheffley4955]

Does this have a 351M, 400, or 460 V8?

[@RelicToWreck]

460

[@scott4668]

This looks a lot like the car Timothy McVeigh was driving when arrested 😅

[@RelicToWreck]

Pretty darn close. It has to be the same paint code, but his was a 77 Grand marquis.

[@AaronGranda-g5r]

Uncle buck but no backfire.

[@fredlohmann1448]

NOT A COLD START!! ITS NEEDS 4-6 TIMES TO START!

[@RelicToWreck]

Needs a bad accelerator pump, sticky starter solenoid and stale fuel, but even then the beast will roar.

[@michaeltutty1540]

Why would it need 4-6 tries before it would start? It had been running just a few days before. These car were designed to work in temperatures below -40.

[@wesoblander3648]

​@@michaeltutty1540, a crummy carb would make it a cranker video. However, the car in the video starts and runs excellent.

[@wesoblander3648]

That runs terrific and would make a good living room :)

[@d.e.c1609]

Whhoaahhh...

[@lookingthroughice7843]

Ugliest year for marques, and why the extra gauges. Also ugly colour. I had a 71 with the 429 cobra jet a much nicer ride and sleeker look in 2 door. Yours is a pile of junk.

[@RelicToWreck]

Appreciate the kind words.
