Year:1989 Mileage:230000
Location:

Rossville, Illinois, United States

This car was a show car/daily driver.

I am selling this car because I bought another Hot Rod. This car is in excellent mechanical shape with 50,000 miles on the engine, trans, and rear-end. The engine is a 5.0 H.O. and has the following mechanical specs; 9.5-1 compression ratio, Stock Roller Cam, 65mm throttle body, plenum spacer, Ford Racing push rods, throttle body enhancer, hypo under-drive pulley, Roller rocker arms, after market headers, Ford racing wires, reverse trick flow mufflers, and is rated at 300-350 h.p. (est) Ford Racing 3.73 rear end, shift kit, flex fan. I did have a minor fender bender with it which I fixed. I put a new fender on it , fixed the header, hood and put a new bumper on it.

This car would make a perfect rat rod, project car, work or parts car.

Loaded with options, most work except, door locks, d/s window (it gets power but wont go up or down.) cruise, power trunk, one power mirror works, the heater/ac console, the air ride suspension has a mind of its own, but has newer air bags, the power brake booster works when it wants, or else works like manual brakes. ABS doesnt work, (I have another master cylinder) cracked windshield, the paint job need to be wet sanded and re-shot with clear, there is some clear chipping off of the paint. Rusting out (mildly) at the bottom of the fenders and need a new ignition switch. The A/C clutch has a weak spring, otherwise, it holds a charge. I am taking the radio and antenna off of it.

The doors, hood, and trunk show no signs of rust. The interior door panels are in good

shape. I re-dyed the carpeting which needs touch-up, and covered the header, visors and head-liner with a silk-like material. The dash is cracked. The front seats were recently reupholstered. The back seat is in good condition. Rugs are in good condition. The trunk is clean.

I have described this car to the best of my ability. I make no warranty or guarantee of this car , implied or otherwise. Car sold as is. This car is drivable. You will have to change the ignition switch or hold on to it or jam it with something to keep it totally on the on position. Please contact me with any questions or additional pics. This car is fun to drive and handles real well and it‘s fast. Also has excellent mid-range and top end. The engine and trans are worth more than I am asking for this car.  

Buyer is responsible for their own pickup arrangements.

Lincoln, GMC clean up in AutoPacific Vehicle Satisfaction Awards

Tue, 17 Jun 2014

In recent years, there have been a lot of dire pronouncements made about Lincoln's future, or a lack thereof. But Ford's premium marque is like the Rocky Balboa of the auto business; every time the company seems ready to go, it comes back for more. Apparently, that dogged persistence is paying off, because the industry analysts at AutoPacific have put a big check in their win column with their newly released 2014 model year vehicle satisfaction survey. And despite recent enmity for its seemingly never-ending recall saga, it appears General Motors knows how to satisfy new owners, too.
In fact, not only was Lincoln named as the premium brand with the highest new owner satisfaction, even scored three models on the list of passenger cars with the most gratified buyers - the MKS, MKZ and MKZ Hybrid.
GM's stable of brands was also among the top companies in this year's survey. GMC was named the top popular brand by AutoPacific, with its Sierra pickup and Acadia crossover singled out for awards in their segments. Chevrolet also did incredibly well, with more cars on the list than any other brand. The Corvette, Camaro, Sonic and Impala all made the cut in their respective categories.

2015 Lincoln MKC priced from $33,995* [w/poll]

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

Looking to build on the momentum it struggled to establish with the MKZ, Lincoln recently unveiled the production version of its all-new MKC last month at the LA Auto Show. With a proven platform shared with the Ford Escape and striking design, the 2015 Lincoln MKC goes on sale next summer ready to take on the ever-expanding world of luxury compact crossovers. Breaking into this new segment, Lincoln has priced the MKC aggressively as one of the least-expensive offerings in its class, starting at $33,995 (*including destination charges).
At that price, the 2015 MKC costs a little bit more than a fully loaded 2014 Ford Escape Titanium and is just slightly less costly than the Acura RDX and Volvo XC60. More importantly, it's thousands less than Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes GLK-Class. The MKC will be offered in three trim levels for now - there is still no more information about Lincoln's new Black Label products - ranging from the base Premiere up to the range-topping Reserve.
The Premiere will come standard with features like active grille shutters, push-button start, remote start, dual-zone climate control and heated front seats, while the midgrade Select starts at $37,225 and adds upgraded 18-inch wheels, ambient lighting, daytime running lights and a steering wheel featuring Wollsdorf leather. The top-shelf Reserve trim level starts at $40,930 and brings even more luxury features including the panoramic roof, navigation, cooled front seats and wifi access.
