This one in Romania
1980 Ford-Mercury Monarch ghia 5 liter V8
Hello, my name is Vlad I am 30 and live in Timisoara, Romania, EU
My car had been build in september 1979, and assembled in FORD Factory in
Koln-Germany (and makes it one of the earliest 1980 modell). The ID serial plate
on chasis is MADE IN GERMANY at FORD WERKE KOLN!
Only its original colour has been changed from dark red into this happy-red,
witch I like most. Original interiours and mechanical has been preserved, in
original shape. It hase 109.200 km (I have bought it 4 months ago with 108.000
km). It has Ghia options with electrical windows and mirror, lether, automatic
climatic control, automatic gearbox).
Beeing an european-made car, build for european market all its features are
made to fit european standars: Floor switch for automatic gearbox, european
modell of headlights (made by hella and bosch, germany), smaller headlights
original for position it is for turning signals (and side orange lights are
position lights). It was, and it is a garage car. It runs great!. It is the only
in ROMANIA (I think there is a Granada in Bucharest, but never seen it) Still
some improvement are needed: I need in future to change the exterior side
mouldings, witch durring the time has been hit several times, and also need to
buy right side mirror (not necesary electrical).
2. I have bought several catalogs and mentenance books from ebay: can you tell
me for my car: 1980 monarch 5 liter ghia what are the recomended AIR FILTER, OIL
FILTER, OIL ENGINE AND GEARBOX TIPE (with code), to make shure I buy the best
for my car. Is it indicated to add SuperDuraLube engine additive?
Thank you !
