    Wow....looked nothing like that when you got it.

    I wonder what the Grand Marquis Trim Option is?

    One thing to note: Only 6,429 1974 Comet GT's ever made. That is what I would call rare.

    When I first got the car, it came with this horrible trim on the side about the same spot in the middle all the way down the length of the car. I just peeled it off.

    So there were only 6,429 made, that applies to the earlier and later models to right?

    It ONLY applies to the 1974 model year.

    If you break down and pay the difference for the Elite report I bet you'll find it may be one of one equipped like that. I googled "grand marquis trim option" and found very little info. None of it was on a Comet. And it seems to be a 74 option only.

    Maybe when I am done modding the car I'll get the elite report. I know I'd like to one day.
