1987 Lincoln Town Car

Black Exterior with Black Half Roof Option.     Dark Blue Cloth Interior.

71,000 miles.

Drives very well with smooth running 5.0 Ford engine.  Trans shifts perfectly.  Brakes feel and work perfectly.  Steering is perfect.    I know the history on this car from new……I bought it roughly 10 years ago from the original owner.   Always garage kept and maintained to the max!  We put roughly 15,000 trouble free miles on the car and parked it.   

Although it has been off the road for a few years now – it has always been started from time to time and driven.   Fresh fuel throughout the years and always with Star-Tron additive.   We just put in a new battery and distributor plus cap and rotor.   (Needed a stator and the whole distributor was only a few bucks more).  Recent oil change.

Options:

Outside thermometer,  Power Vent Windows, Power Windows, A/C, Upgraded radio, Power Antenna, Power Seats, Power Locks, Power Trunk Pull Down, Tilt Wheel, Rear Defrost, Headlight Sentinel, Wiper Delay, Steering Wheel Controls, Leather Wrapped Steering Wheel, Cruise Control,

Condition:

Engine / Trans and other items under the hood:

-           Engine runs great…no knocks, taps, rattles or funny smells.  No Smoke.  No Leaks noticeable.  Trans Shifts fine – has never needed fluid added.   Trans serviced about 5 years ago but not many miles since.   Recent Oil Change,  Power Steering pump sounds good.

-          Hood insulation should be replaced as it is sagging.   Plan to replace the serpentine belt and have the hoses checked.  They look fine but have not been changed.

Exterior:

-          Clear coat is cracked on the hood, roof and trunk.  See the pictures.   Unfortunate as this car is top quality and the paint hurts its overall appearance.   Sides are very nice.  Padded roof section in decent condition but not perfect – see pictures.    Straight and clean overall.  Good chrome, stainless and plastic trim.

-          Wheels are excellent………………Lincoln optional stainless (real) wire wheels.

-          Tires,   Appear good and have good tread.   Matched set of tires but must be at least ten years old.   Never a problem with air pressure.

-    Crack in exterior of front right turn signal lense. 

Driving:

-           Very impressive over all.   Very quiet and smooth.  Runs fine, shifts fine, brakes feel good and steering is normal.    I have a new set of shocks for this car –purchased years ago and never installed. 

Interior:

-           Very nice overall.  Small cut in drivers side door panel.  Small crack on each side of the dash at the speaker grill.    Nice otherwise.   Great Headliner.  Seats are great !   No rattles or funny smells.

-          Great Dash.    One window does not work – the rest are great.    Even the small power vent windows work great.     Radio, instruments, trunk release, power seats, power locks, power antenna, etc work great.    Great glass all around.    Not sure about the rear defrost – have not tried it. 

-          A/C needs a re-charge.  Worked perfectly while the car was in regular use.  All vents, heater, defrost, etc. works as it should. 

Trunk:  -  Dry and Clean.  No smells, spare and jack are intact.   

 

Car is sold As Is / Where Is with no warranty expressed or implied.   Will ship just about anywhere in the world at buyers expense.   Delivery to ports in Baltimore, Philadelphia or New York easily accomplished at buyers expense.   Car must be paid in full before it leaves here.  Inside storage of the vehicle no problem after the auction as long as it is paid for.   Will work with your shipper to make this easy !

Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.

Is Lincoln MKC cutting into Cadillac SRX sales?

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The two big American luxury brands of Cadillac and Lincoln are on surprisingly similar paths at the moment with both divisions hoping to redefine themselves and grow popularity. They're still early in the process with no clear winner yet, but things might actually be looking up for Lincoln's latest model, according to a monthly sales analysis from The Motley Fool. It seems, at least early on, that the new MKC crossover might be taking a bite out of the Cadillac SRX's growth.
The MKC launched just a few months ago and has been getting a big marketing push from a series of oft-mocked ads starring the smooth-talking Matthew McConaughey. The luxury CUV has been the popular, new kid on the block with growing sales since its introduction. While smaller than the SRX, the Lincoln starts at a lower price and offers better fuel economy.
Through June, the SRX performed well with sales up over 20 percent on average through June, according to The Motley Fool. However, July and August saw things plummet with year-over-year drops of 7 percent and 37 percent, respectively. It still far outsold the MKC in terms of actual units in a given month, but the Caddy's continued growth has appeared to stagnate.

Does Lincoln Zephyr trademark mean a return to real names?

Wed, May 25 2016

Lincoln's long history includes many legendary names, and despite its short life, Zephyr retains a spot in that pantheon. Perhaps its will return once again: Ford Motor Co. applied to trademark Zephyr on May 11. Trademark filings can have ambiguous meanings, and often they're legal plays to get or keep the rights to a name. But in the last year, we've seen signs Lincoln is looking to use real names on its vehicles again. Obviously, it's keeping Navigator for its flagship sport-utility vehicle with a new model due next year. Reprising Continental for the MKS replacement was also well received. That said, Lincoln still uses the MKX and MKC "names" for its crossovers. Zephyr is a dustier moniker. It was used in the 1930s and '40s on a mid-level model spearheaded by Edsel Ford. The stylishly aerodynamic model was set between the Ford V8 De Luxe and more expensive Lincolns. It returned in 2006 as the Lincoln version of the Ford Fusion before that model was renamed MKZ. Mercury also used Zephyr on its version of the Ford Fairmont in the late 1970s and early '80s. Ford last held a trademark on the Zephyr name in 2013. The filing says Ford seeks to use Zephyr for "motor vehicles and parts and accessories therefor." That could mean a new car — or just parts. Putting the Zephyr badge back on the MKZ is the most likely bet. Meanwhile, Ford also moved to get the Thunderbird trademark on May 11 for the same vehicles and parts purpose, and it filed for the Mustang trademark for shampoo and lotions on May 4. A Lincoln spokesman said, "In the normal course of our business, we file trademarks for names," but had no further information. Related Video:
