Thanks for the kind words. My parents had a silver Mark IV with burgundy interior. I fondly remember riding in that car as a child. I loved those silver switches and the headlight eyelids. When my previous car, 2000 Lincoln LS, was rear ended and totaled, I was set on getting a more older model car. The LS was a gift from my late wife before her death. I considered an 80s Cadillac coupe or Lincoln coupe. I read mixed reviews how the caddy of that area looked good, but was 💩 mechanically. I stumbled across Misty and fell in love. Traveled south FL from AZ to secure the deal and oversee the transport back hm in an enclosed semitrailer. She will be my “forever” car and I will cherish the moments with her. 🥰

Thanks. It was a part of the original package and she has the 3.55 Traction-Lok rear axle. If you haven’t already, please subscribe to the channel for updates. ENJOY!

Yup! You also see the pager, brick phone and the Sony Watchman B/W TV in the back?😎

Same color, but in 4 door? I don’t like car notes and want this to be my “forever car”. So, opted to take the plunge.

@pucciwagon she has a two tone paint job, beige and and cream white. Everything else is literally the same. I have to restore my engine some day haha

I’m 6’5 with big piano playing fingers n long torso. Trying to maneuver this task was a challenge at best. 🙄

@@pucciwagon From instrument panels to opera windows I would often ask, who designed this sh#t?

What section in the factory?

Months ago, I found the printed factory inventory sheet stored under the rear seat. Still in great shape after all these years. Had carbon paper as well. Left one copy with carbon sheet with seat. Removed the carbon copied sheet and kept as souvenir.

@@pucciwagon I was a relief man in the Trim Shop, and worked in other areas such as Frame line, Paint and repair. We called that inventory sheet the bulletin. For the heck of it, check your trunk fender wheel wells for anything in there. Sometimes screws and even tools fell in there. That is one of my favorite colors. I had a '93 Town Car in that blue. Keep up the good work.

Same! Parents had Mark IV coupe (silver exterior & burgundy interior) growing up. Fast fwd to a few years ago when previous 2000 Lincoln LS was rear ended n totaled, I searched and found Misty. 🥰

Indeed!

Not for sale. A couple of years ago, seller wanted $14K. I bought from him for $10k cash. 😎

She still gets the job done. 😎

No. I did consider that, but it would be too inconvenient for me. I do vacuum the mats once a week.

I have the OEM 302. I’ve had her for a little over 2 years.

lol. I did consider the Mark V, since it is longer. Could not find a black or blue in a good condition. Learned about the Mark VI and that it was the last year of the box body. So, when I stumbled across her, I jumped on the opportunity to buy her. Worked out deal with seller, flew to FL from AZ, then coordinated semi and enclosed trailer (Highly recommended) to deliver it back home to me. 😎

@pucciwagon I also considered to buy a Mark VI back in the 90s, because the Mkvwas way too big. But here in Germany there wasn't (and still isn't) any service-station for Lincoln. (There still are people around, who didnt know about Lincoln to be a car brand...) So it became a (boxy) Caprice, (even a rare export model with amber turn signals and metric speedometer).

Thanks for the kind words about her. I ❤️ her n she enjoys all the love & 👍🏼👍🏼 received from passersby. 😎

Noted. “…from my cold dead hands!”😂

Keep me posted.

There is a love & hate relationship with the door chime. LOL Thanks for input. If you haven’t already, please subscribe to the channel to be notified about new content.

Thanks for feedback. From my understanding, at least this 1983 Pucci edition came with the 1.3 in Royal Seal tires from the factory. When I purchased her in 2022, she had the 3/4. I wanted to go with the 1.3in as shown in brochure of that model.

lol. It’s a love or hate with that door chime.

​@@pucciwagon love 😅

😂😂😂😂😂

A dream turned into a @&$?! Nightmare!!

When I first saw Ford’s Taurus with that kidney shape, I figured we were all doomed.

In the 1960's...certainly not since then

@@turnne: I like the boxy shape of the Lincoln’s & Cadillac’s from the 80s. Not thrilled about the big fins found on cars of earlier generations. When selecting a car to purchase after my 2000 Lincoln LS was totaled, it was an 80s Lincoln or Caddie. Later read mixed build quality of Caddies from 80s. They were pretty on the outside, but problems inside. So, opted for Linc. Parents had Mark IV growing up. Forgot Mark VI existed. Learned it was last of their boxy shape! Stumbled across it and was determined to get it. Saw an older Lincoln Town Coupe in blue that was 🔥. However under body was 💩. So…I opted to secure what I have now.

The upcoming emission standards were made only for passenger cars, not SUVs and trucks. So in the 80s those cars shrunk, and in the 90s people went away...

Nawh. She’s staying here with me. 🥰

You can disconnect the chime if you want. I have to admit, when I’m working on the car with the doors open, the constant chime can get annoying, so I usually just disconnect the battery to avoid it, haha. But under normal circumstances, I actually enjoy hearing it-it’s got that nostalgic feel! Should I create a short video on where the chime box is located?

If you’re serious bout getting 83-84 sedan I can assist. Are you on FB? If not, I can put out feelers based on what you want (color, price etc). I can also travel to location of vehicle to check it out and oversee shipping back here to AZ as I did for my own. Fee based of course…. Let me know…

Glad I could help. Thank for your feedback. If you haven't already, please subscribe to this channel.

Turn indicators as in the white cornering lights which illuminates when turn signal is activated? If so, yes she does.

Cornering lights? Yes. They also work. 😎 Please subscribe get notified about new videos.

@@pucciwagon no I mean on the dashboard, I have turn cornering lights but on my dash it does not indicate when I activate the turn signal but my 1976 Lincoln does has turn signal indicators on the dashboard

@@UnionPacific1997 : Yes. On this 83 Mark VI, the left arrow blinks on the left panel. The right blinks on the right panel. See my 20 second video of "Interior Sounds..." where the turn signals are activated.

@@UnionPacific1997 : Have you replaced the flasher and/or turn signal switch?

I purchased it in September 2022. Many online said it was worth $17K. Seller asked $14K. Countered with $10K cash. Had it shipped back here to Phoenix with me. It was sitting in seller’s temp controlled mansion in FL. He had lots of other cars and barely using this one. I’m fixing things as they come along. She’s not for sale.

Thanks for your feedback. She’s a “work in progress” and I repair items as they come along. The previous owner had her sitting for quite a while and showed signs of slight neglect.

Thanks for your feedback.

Nawh. I wanted to create a vibe to this rolling museum. Pack of cigs, with skin mags in back with brick phone, pager n mobile TV. …for the wheeler-dealer on the go.

@@pucciwagon You're right, I kind of thought that. Beautiful car BTW.

Thanks for the kind words. :-)

The Playboy mag was December 1983 issue with Joan on the cover. The Jet mags from 1983 have Lola on the cover. Cassettes in the center console include top albums of that year from The Police, Prince, Michael Jackson, Flashdance soundtrack and Van Halen. Parliament cigs were popular at that time. Its blue packaging blends well with the interior. Coins in console include quarters and nickels from specifically from 1983. Rear section has PacTel brick phone & pager, Sony Watchman B&W mobile TV player and paper map from that era of Phoenix metro area.

Thanks for feedback.
