1997 Lincoln Mark VIII - Custom Metallic Black Paint. Only 19,097 original miles on the car. 


For a 16 year old car it is in excellent condition. 

I bought the car about 2 years ago with 5,995 miles on it, when I purchased the car I had new tires put on the car and had it painted a custom metallic black - there is not another Mark VIII out there like this one! I turn heads every where I go with it. It has just had new brakes and rotors all the way around put on less than 2 months ago and the A/C blows cold.  I have taken pride in keeping this car as perfect as possible.  Oil has been changed every 3,000 miles, seats have had leather conditioner put on them every couple of weeks and the car has always been waxed 2 times a year (just been waxed this week).  I also have only driven in the snow 2 or 3 times (because our other vehicle was broke).  Car has been in a climate controlled garaged since I have owned it.

Most people are wondering why this car being a 1997 has such low miles - The story goes like this - the car was a theft recovery in 1998 (NEVER WRECKED) and was stripped clean.  A local body shop bought the car to repair and resell (since back then this car sold for over $45,000).  They replaced everything on the car but could never get the car to start and run so they parked for a while.  Over a period of 13 years they made several attempts to have different mechanics look at the car, but no one could ever figure out why it would not start.  2 years ago a friend of mine found the car and knew that I had been looking for one and asked the owners if they would sell it - at this point they were ready to send it out for scrap as they had over $20,000 invested into it and could not get it to run, so they agreed to sell it to me.  I have another friend who is an excellent mechanic working on Fords for a living and told me it was one of 4 things wrong with it, but none of them major or costly so I bought the car.  Within hours of getting the car he had it running (started on first crank).  What was wrong - when the car was vandalized they took everything including the tires and rims and when the wrecker pulled the car onto a flat bed it pulled the wires out to the crank sensor - simple as that!  I have drove the car for just under 2 years and have had only a couple of minor problems with it (passengers rotor was sticking) and the clock spring is now not working (quit about 6 months ago).  I have been unable to find one, but it is in no way impossible to get one.  I have been looking for a new one but you can put a used one in the car.  

You may e-mail me any questions that you may have and/or phone number to call you.

I am only selling the car because I am now doing craft shows and I need a truck to carry a tent, grid wall set up and the craft that I make to the shows that I do.

Lincoln takes to the Super Bowl with Twitter schizophrenia

Fri, 01 Feb 2013

Lincoln has officially pulled off the wraps on its ad for this year's Super Bowl. As you may recall, the company invited people to send in their tweets to help craft the spot's story line with Jimmy Fallon in the director's chair. The company chose five tweets and ran with them, and the result is, well, about as focused as your average online comment thread. We do get plenty of shots of the all-new Lincoln MKZ, as well as at least one comment on the interior leather's suppleness.
Do we learn a single thing about the brand's new honey? Nope. But there's a turtle crossing, a band of bikers, a German farming student and herd of alpacas. Mostly, the ad just makes us tired. You can check out the full spot before it airs during the big game by watching it below. We'll be busy preparing for the alpacalypse.
AOL Autos' associate editor Peter Bigelow went deeper in his criticism. Have a read: Lincoln's Super Bowl Ad is A Flop.

Production Lincoln Continental will debut at Detroit Auto Show

Fri, Oct 9 2015

The Lincoln Continental concept that debuted at the 2015 New York Auto Show was an absolute star of the event thanks to its handsome lines and sumptuous interior. At the 2016 Detroit Auto Show, we'll get to see how well those fantastic looks transition to the road, as Lincoln will debut the production version there, according to Car and Driver. A market launch will reportedly come later in the year. The stately styling, including the mesh grille, is expected to move largely unaltered to production, but Lincoln is still being vague about the luxury sedan's mechanical parts. The brand's marketing manager Imran Jalal tells Car and Driver the Continental is based on a front-wheel drive platform but an all-wheel drive version in assured. Based on details from the New York show, it reportedly uses a Lincoln-exclusive 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 for power. There are no plans for a hybrid, either, according to Jalal. Assembly of the Continental is expected to happen at Ford's Flat Rock, MI, factory alongside the Mustang and Fusion. The MKS, which the new Lincoln replaces, is built in Chicago along with several other models. Freeing up the space there, could let the Blue Oval keep up with demand for the Explorer. While the Continental ushers in styling changes for Lincoln, the shift doesn't extend to model names. Contrary to earlier rumors, the brand doesn't intend to abandon the MK model names in the lineup anytime soon, according to Jalal. Related Video:
