1999 Mercury Grand Marquis LS white stock
 
Hi everyone i just got my GM and will be having fun with it in the next while. stock right now, getting tinted windows tomorrow on the back doors/window I like my privacy.

where can i find out what axle, transmission etc is in my car ? is there a VIN reader somewhere or a code on the axle ? i don't need to know i'm just curious.

my car drives like a dream 128 xxx km's, just need the bumpers resprayed they have some cracking paint issues. i think the previous owner parked by feel, or is this a known issue ?

just wanted to say hello and i have a pic of my car in my profile. thanks.

transmission will more than likely be a AODE and rear gears can be found on code on driver door... look where it says AX and there should be a code there for it... bumpers on front can be known for issues from road debris hitting it and rear usually tears up from wind catching it from under the car

thanks for the reply 87crownvic !

i got my windows tinted 18% in the back doors/ window, car looks nice with the white paint/black windows.
says " C8 " under the AX portion of the door sticker
edit : pic of tinted windows in my photo album.
