Almost Every Option Available When New - Original Paint & Interior -
No Rust Ever
Four New WSW Firestone Tires and Much Other Work Since Taken Out of Storage
Finished in Light Titanium Pearl Metallic with
a matching Landau-style top and Dark Blue Premium Leather Interior, this
final year Town Car left the factory in Wixom, Michigan during the last
month of classic Town Car production, on the 22nd of June, 1989. It was
sold new a month later at Ditschman Ford-Lincoln-Mercury on Rt. 202 in Flemington,
NJ and apparently retired to Florida along with its original owner, with
whom it would seem to have remained for almost a decade and a half, at which
point the car had just over 52,000 miles. It then came to Virginia in 2004,
registered first near Smith Mountain Lake near Roanoke, then moved about
an hour northeast to Madison Heights, near Lynchburg, where it was part
of a small automobile dealer's collection of unusual low-mileage cars until
last month.
(This information is per the printed CarFax report I have on hand, yes,
it's guaranteed clean as a whistle in that regard, too.)
The final year classic 1980s Town Car was an
imposing one, definitely more so than the car that would take Lincoln through
the 1990s!
The car wears its original paint throughout
and is straight and solid with no evidence of any body repairs - anywhere.
The finish has gotten a bit thin on the tops of the front fenders and in
places on the hood but it still shines right up and looks terrific.
Just yesterday, I fitted four new Firestone
Precision Touring 215/70/15 whitewalls to the original alloys, filled them
with nitrogen and performed a front end alignment. The car had a set of
Bridgestones on it from 1997 that had some sidewall cracking that troubled
me enough to change them. These were not tires that had been languishing
in a warehouse, either; they have date codes of the 36th and 37th weeks
of 2013, so they are fresh off the production line. Please note that all
four alloys are this sharp and are secured by one factory-equipped McGard
wheel lock per wheel - the key to these is on the lug wrench in the trunk.
You will notice that even all the trim mouldings
and chrome down the sides is free of any damage.
No parking lot dings here, either!
Notice the original selling dealer's sticker
on the deck lid!
Close up!
The original hand-painted pinstripe also survives
throughout the car!
The radio aerial also works great.
A terrific looking car from any angle!
Note the late build date!
Both driver and passenger mirrors are heated
with the rear defog, and the driver's mirror has a good working thermometer.
At night, it lights up!
Do you know the code? I do - and this works
great.
Illuminated entry works well - if the door is
locked, flip up on the handle and the little lamps in the lock cylinders
light up along with all the interior courtesy lights.
One of the necessary repairs I undertook to
attempt to perfect this Lincoln was to replace the power lock motor on this
door. This panel was off the car on Saturday and back on on Sunday. Lincoln
did not make it easy to service this part and they do not support it well,
only Chinese replacements. I was very lucky - I took a trip over to the
junkyard and found a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis with a recently replaced
OEM lock motor which I disassembled, cleaned and reassembled, then made
a moisture barrier for it far better than Ford had designed before refitting
it to the car. I took the liberty of lubricating the window regulator while
I was in here. It was operating well but it will be assured of trouble-free
operation for many more years now with fresh grease on the tracks. There
are no cracks in this door panel anywhere and all the clips, moisture barrier
and sound insulation went back in without any trouble.
If you've never had one, the power windows on
these Town Cars are really neat - first the vent window goes down, then
the main window.
Another repair was to make the temperature gauge
work, simply the underhood sensor on the intake manifold. All the gauges
work. The clock has been somewhat finicky, it wants to slow down around
5 o'clock and then once it's past 6 it starts working again. With regular
use it should come back to life. Notice here the tilt column and cruise
controls on the steering wheel, the cruise works perfectly, holds, accelerates
and coasts as it should on command.
Nice options here - auto dimming high beams
and delay headlamps - definitely not standard equipment.
As of today, this is the car's mileage from
new. It may go up slightly before the close of auction due to test drives
or I might want to take it somewhere!
The climate control works great - the A/C blows
ice cold and is miraculously still R12, not a conversion.
Purists are cringing - the radio was replaced
with a modern Sony AM/FM/CD/MP3 with Aux input and is Satellite ready should
you want that. Sadly, the original radio was not with the car when I got
it, but I managed to find a nice 1989 Ford Premium Audio Cassette deck correct
to this car that had been rebuilt not long ago...
This will be included with the car should you
wish to return to the original stereo, the original amplifier and all wiring
appears to be intact and the donor car gave a short pigtail from its wiring
just in case it is needed to repair any from the Sony installation. These
late 1980s Ford radios are quite often bad (no wonder this was overhauled
by Southern Electronics in 2006, probably not the first time, either) so
my preference would be to keep the Sony but I thought it would be nice to
have one of these go with the car as well.
Both driver and passenger get illuminated vanity
mirrors in this car.
The headliner is original and perfect.
The Signature Series was the top of the line
and these seats are a great example of Lincoln luxury from this period.
Even in the Signature, leather was a major extra cost option - velour was
the norm in these cars. I think you're starting to get the picture here
- this was not the sort of car purchased new for a livery service. I just
treated the leather with Gliptone cleaner and conditioner and it is nice
and soft. The carpets throughout are also extra plush and come with carpeted
mats, not rubber.
Rear seat passengers get reading lamp and window
switches as well as door ashtrays and lighters.
The rear seat in this car is superb and appears
to never have been sat in.
Same style panel and switches on this side...
Similar condition to the seat as well!
Another repair I just did today as I found it
necessary was the power seat switch on this side had some buildup in it;
the rear of the seat would go up, but not down. I dismantled and cleaned
it and now it works again as it should. Power window and power lock switches
here as well as the 6 way seat controls and an ashtray. The window goes
up and down great just like the driver's side.
Dash, carpets, everything is in tip-top shape
throughout.
The passenger's seat has next to no wear at
all. The driver's seat looks terrible in this photo and it does not in real
life, it is just fine.
Even with all those ashtrays, none were ever
used, nor were the Lincoln emblem lighters.
The car also retains its original owners manual
folder, plus some service records, state inspection tickets and the manual
to the new radio.
The luggage compartment is very tidy with no
stains. The original Michelin spare tire has never been on the ground and
still has protective coating on the whitewall. The jack and lug wrench are
also there.
I'm sure you already noticed the trunk pull
down!
As well as the power release latch. All of this
works great, no issues at all.
I did not detail the engine compartment, this
is how I found it and I chose to leave it alone. It is very tidy in here.
Note the new gauge sender just below the distributor and slightly to the
right in this photo. The battery is about 3 years old and is just fine,
the alternator was recently rebuilt per some records in the glovebox. A
new exhaust was also done from the cats back in 2010.
I will perform an oil change and a coolant change
prior to delivery - I have no idea when the oil was last changed, it is
clean. The coolant is a bit murky. I will also check all other fluids and
change if I deem it necessary prior to delivery. This car drives wonderfully,
stops on a dime and does everything right, I just want to make it as right
as I can, even if it's preventative work.
Note the original R12 caps on the AC accumulators!

Lincoln is launching a new subscription-based service that will allow customers to lease any of its vehicles on a month-by-month basis as part of a new suite of services aimed at offering flexibility and converting buyers. The luxury brand has also been operating a pilot program in which dealers bring Lincoln vehicles to consumers' homes for them to test drive on their own time — and sometimes even complete the entire sales process at their homes. Lincoln also announced on the heels of the L.A. Auto Show a new collaboration with Clear, a company that provides expedited screening at security gates at airports and sports arenas, plus an expansion of its Lincoln Personal Driver service, formerly known as Lincoln Chauffeur, to Dallas. Kumar Galhotra, Lincoln's president, said the company is trying to create a brand experience for consumers that is warm, human and effortless, and that the new services are based on consumer research that equates time with luxury. "We take this philosophy of warm, human and effortless, and we really embed it" in the vehicles and ownership experience, he said. Lincoln plans to launch its vehicle subscription service early next year, likely in "a couple California cities," Galhotra said, that allows consumers to lease any Lincoln vehicle on a monthly basis. While Lincoln did not announce pricing, the program is based on Ford Credit's Canvas program, which offers monthly subscriptions to pre-owned Ford vehicles and come with insurance, maintenance and warranty coverage. The service is so far offered only in the Bay Area and parts of Los Angeles. The service appears to be similar to the $1,500-a-month Book by Cadillac service and Care by Volvo. Robert Parker, Lincoln's global director of marketing, sales and service, said the service will allow consumers the option of upgrading to larger-size vehicles without being locked into a traditional two-year lease. "We acknowledge the fact that we are a challenger brand. We're not at the scale of the Germans," Parker said. "We certainly aspire to continue to grow, that's not our No. 1 focus.

The first 2017 Acura NZX rolls off the line in Ohio and Lincoln may be ditching some initials for a classic nameplate. Senior Editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] The first 2017 Acura NSX rolled off the assembly line this week in Marysville, Ohio. Marking the return of the iconic supercar. VIN #001 went to Nascar Owner Rick Handpick. He paid $1.2M at auction for the first NSX. The proceeds went to charity. The 2017 NSX uses a twin turbo V6 teamed with three electric motors to make a total of 573-hp and 476-lb.ft of torque. The supercar also runs a nine speed dual clutch transmission and AWD. The starting price is $157,800 but you can option this thing out to well over $200k. Ford Motor Company applied this month to get the rights to the trademark for the word Zephyr. Lincoln is using some real names again aside from these MKC and MKX things that don't mean a lot to the general public. The Navigator is going strong and a new one comes on next year. Plus it brought back the Continental which was a well revived move. So Zephyr should ring a bell it was used in the 1930s and 40s, it was also used a little less memorably in 2006 on a Lincoln model that was essentially a rebadged Ford Fusion. Here's the take away: we think the MKZ might be rebadge as the Lincoln Zephyr. For Autoblog I'm Greg Migliore. Autoblog Minute is a short-form video news series reporting on all things automotive. Each segment offers a quick and clear picture of what's happening in the automotive industry from the perspective of Autoblog's expert editorial staff, auto executives, and industry professionals.

No one can accuse Lincoln of failing to keep to the MKZ modern after the latest, comprehensive upgrades for the refreshed 2017 model. The sedan goes on sale next spring and features significant changes to the design, powertrain, and available technology. The designers give the luxury sedan's face an aesthetic overhaul with a mesh grille that's inspired by the Continental concept, and the company also offers LED adaptive headlights as a further improvement to the front end. That said, it looks a little derivative – many staffers are comparing it to similar Jaguar and Kia designs, not that that's a bad thing. Inside, the center console moves away from capacitive controls in favor of actual knobs and buttons. Huge changes happen under the hood, too. The all-wheel-drive MKZ is available with 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque from a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6, and the mill is exclusive to Lincoln for now. The optional Driver's Package on these models should further improve the handling thanks to a torque-vectoring rear differential derived from the Ford Focus RS. The same V6 makes 350 hp in front-wheel drive trim, and customers can also order a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder or hybrid powertrain. Lincoln has a load of safety and driver assistance tech for the MKZ, too. The adaptive cruise control system can deal with stop-and-go traffic and even hold the sedan in place without the driver using the brake pedal. Pre-Collision Assist can also help avoid accidents by automatically activating the brakes.
