- This charity auction 1995 Lincoln Town Car had some problems I knew about during the auction inspection while others I didn't, but this time luck was on my side.
That is a grate looking car. It's like driving a couch down the road. That's a score. Have fun That's what cars are all about fun 😀😎😎😎
That one is a keeper Chris.Not many left in good condition.I relocated from Long Island to Orlando Fl area.One of 1st items on the agenda is to locate a nice 95-97 Town Car with low miles.
As for the video I did not notice too much difference between the GoPro versus the phone.1st rate as always my friend.Stay well and hope you got the bucks out of the Charger at auction
That car is just broken in. It has another 25 years of service to give!
I remember when my grandfather got his town car in I think 1991, LOVED that car as a kid. Always looking to buy one.
I got one for whats your email?
@@mrblack-fx7jw I think if buy another car I’ll have to kick my own ass. No wife to tell me no. Dangerous. Plus I’m all the way up in Maine.
@@nghermit4922 That's why you build a BIG dog house with mini fridge, TV and recliner. That way when you do buy another and she puts you out between the awesome Town Car and awesome dog house, you'll be set my friend??
Nice work! What a sweet ride for the money. My buddy has a 94 and man they’re cruisers
Love the videos man! Have a 99 Grand Marquis leather chrome everywhere love it has 180k miles still runs like a champ. Radiator left me stranded a few weeks ago was scared untill I seen it was just the radiator. Everything is so simple to fix on these beasts.
Good for you. You got a gem of a keeper...
Ah, from a time when the US could still show the world a thing or two in automotive design. Nowadays, of course, we have fat, tattooed people driving SUVs, trucks and crossovers - the uglier the better.
@Scotty secretly loves Chryslers Don't matter if he's a zoomer, looner or tuner, he's right. Automobiles we don't hardly make, and look at photos of Detroit in its heyday. Great autos, cheap gas and men were men and women were glad. Now John comes home one day after too many poop breaks watching tictock and desides he's always felt a lil feminine. If they can wear a dress and have a beard and beer gut, hairy pits, legs and Adam's apple like me then why can't IJohnnie Jane? In his new ugly as hell, Rusted in 3 months, no spare, touch screen, self driving 40K plastic, no frame and 20 inch rims, stranded cause he left his key transponder in his work pants when he changed into his dress. Yeah I miss the 90s too.
Great music, cheap gas, great jobs, Great autos, and normal people that use common language. Kurt Cobain And POTUS that got freaky in the white house and was good to us, not a gropey, braindead perv who tells us most important thing to do before hurricane season it to get poked so you can still be sick and spread it all along, if not ,no job for you. You white, racist, Hero cop 18 months ago, now a contagious super spreader!! Don't be a idiot, well pay you to take it, cause that's what you do when shit so deadly is dropping folks like Flys, so scary you pay them, make a lottery for them, or just bully them by making them lose their retirement and livelihood. But got enough monopoly money to print 450k to illegals. He'll yes they want to come in hoards. No laws for them, no mandates, no worries cause we'll give you almost a half million. Great work America. If he got 80 million votes, there's more idiots and mental ppl that need serious help. Let's go Brandon!! Joe stop groping lil Cindy and stop smelling her hair, were in public and you're doing it again!!
@Scotty secretly loves Chryslers Well hell, I like you even more now we on same side. And yes there is a few nice ones, but to compare any of them to the 50s 57 Chevy, Trucks started to get more interesting, 60s with the GTO blazin trails for the pony cars to come, 70s with the SS Chevy Novas, Chevelles, Camaros, Firebird El Caminos ,Rancheros, then oil crisis and our favs got anemic but one held on, Pontiac. The SD 455 Trans AM and then But came to Movies with a Black with gold accents and the Screaming Chicken. Then the 80s not so much really but a chicken farmer with a bad ticker was back with Iacoca to tune and turbo a Dodge GLH? Wtf but you hear it and say wait a sec, I hear that air and blow off valve, and it's almost 200HP or over. Then ask what's a GLH? Goes like hell, Then more power in a GLHS Goes like hell somemore. 90s were getting there,1990 Chevy 454 SS truck, Ford lightning supercharged, Fox body stang, SVT stang, then 2000 Trans AM Firehawk with the Dbl Barrel hood scoop and the 325 HP and almost 400 TQ, OH my Lanta, same engine as in top trim level corvette Z sumthin 1. Then we lost Pontiac, Olds, Plymouth, and now all cars besides Demons, TRX, GT and ? Just not feeling it. And yeah I had a Audi. A6. Turbo 5cyl. Oh boy what a car,until it started falling apart and breaking and parts was a bitch along with the money they cost. Dad had a 07 Ram 2500 Diesel Cummins 6.7 I think with the variable geometry turbo. Lasted a few months. Then the I don't recall the rear wheel bearing maybe. He sold his 1998 Dodge 2500 5.9 liter diesel. Fenders flapping with spray foam filler, almost 620000 miles on Original drive train. 23 years and still can't stop it. New 2022 F150s rusting weeks, not months weeks later. Corvette is sweet. But everything else is blah. No sec lines or curves. It's like comparing today's rock to Nirvana, 1993. No comparison. Nirvana all the way. Or Luke Bryan to Waylon. Nope no chance. Hank 3, said some say I'm not country and that's just fine by me, cause I don't wanna be country with some faggot looking over at me, some say I'm ill mannered, or I'm gonna self destruct, if you know what I'm saying, you know that pop country really sucks, so I'm here 2 put the Dik in Dixie and the Kunt back in Kuntry, cause the kinda country I'm hearing now days is a bunch of fucking shit to me. That sums it up for most music. Tom Mcdonald is good. Made me feel music again. Like cars you feel things that are good with all of your senses. Nirvana reached in my soul and grabbed ahold of me and never let go. Just like Cash, Soundgarden, Etc. When you see a 1970 SS LS6 454 Chevelle in Black with that white racing stripe going from front over cowl induction hood and to the rear, hear that big girl with a lumpy idle go wump, wump, wump, it makes your heart start beating in time, get a lil hot, flushed, start sweating, smile, start to just drown out everything but that beautiful, powerful piece of Art that will set you back in your seat with all the Torque and when that 4 barrel opens up and is sucking all that air, oh man. My Unvle had one we restored as a 15yr old it was my wet dream. We'd go do burnouts and take my buddies for rides cause they never been in a car that'd pin you to the seat so hard you can't move. I'd wash and wax it and put the exhaust cut out caps back on and polish those Crager SS rims and slick the Firestone Firehawk tires. His buddy John got a 69 Camaro RS with a hopped up small block and automatic. Chevelle was auto too, that what was so impressive, no dumping clutch just off brake and mash gas and man alive!! John scared the shit outta me going down a 1 n half lane country barely blacktopped road at almost 100. I was never more scared as a young man, even when hearing snapping above me, Dad and moms heads, WTH is that, then report, boom. That's bullets. Ppl road hunting and shooting at the deer above us in holler, them on ridge. Then at 27 in a shit hole across the pond, trying to make a difference that ended so well.
But
Just like when you finally meet the woman you been waiting for. Yes you've had some good ones, some hoopties, and a few what the hell better with you than just me. But then you see her look at you and you feel the EXACT same way as that car. That's what's missing. If your a car guy with gas in your veins you'll know what I mean. My first love was cars. Looking all all the designs, features, colors. Almost top behind 70 SS is a 50s up Citroën with the hydopneumatic suspension. Can have a flat tire, no worries hit a lever and it can go on 3 wheels, rides almost as good as my 07 Designer and is just fun to drive. I love lincoln Town Cars and any Panther. Some go for 600k and more on factory driveline, motors and trans are bulletproof, comphy, roomie, good mileage, good power and TQ with cats gone and Air box opened up and straight air duct hose, and a good muffler with just enough rumble. Looks good, rides and drives good and has 5 star crash in all categories, first US car to do so. We had WRX STI, A few smoking Japanese makes just alot of cars that you can feel. We don't Got that as much today as then. And alot of big names are phasing out cars, V8 engines, Camaro may be gone again. My favorite to h
Build was a 90 Firebird with a 5spd, original 305 swapped for a 327 out of a nova pushing around 365 HP and a lil more TQ than that. Would go 145 on Interstate late or early in Morning in 5th humming along at 1700 RPMs with car starting to sway back and forth thinking if I had wings I could take off. You have a great week my friend. Semper Fi and Let's go Brandon!!
@Scotty secretly loves Chryslers he said he's been VP for 36 years and that ah that ah you know that thing. I thought Bush Jr was a blithering idiot when he talked in front of ppl. Joe takes the cake. I discovered a channel that takes him or Trumps words and sets them to music. A bunch of Metallica songs etc. Gotta love it when before election him and her said we're not taking that jab, then he cheated and got 80 million votes, but all his appearances are empty, and said the best thing you can do to prepare for natural disaster is get jab. Hope we wake up and it's just a bad dream.
Nobody ever paid anywhere near sticker for that car or any like it. Except possibly my uncle
I've made all major purchases for my Mother & Father In-Law for the past 30 years. He would simply roll into a car dealer and if he liked the car would agree to simply pay MSRP. Unless the dealer offered him a lower price he paid full pop. Super sharp guy as well but was so intimidated he was willing to pay more for things rather then ask or negotiate. LOL, been a hero with my Mother In-Law ever since! Hope she remembers me in her will!
Beautiful, classy, comfortable ride. We rented a white one for our wedding 26 years ago.
You have got to put some white walls on my car some nice dark tint would really help too you should be able to get high dollar price and you do those two things love the channel wish you could post everyday
Love the new camera! Your videos are so well put together, all that effort with the different angles, so nice to watch and always a feel good vibe. Great work on the car we love a cheap fix 👍
Great car, great video. Keep the Go Pro. Overall it will do better with changing conditions.
Thank you so much for your invaluable information, highly appreciate it, keep it up the outstanding job, have a great day.
Congratulations Mr Chris once again, am in love with your new baby already.
I just got my 1996 Town Car this past Monday. I ADORE this car. I got mine from Nebraska. It's been stored in a heated barn, never seen a single snowflake in it's life. It's a one owner car. He passed on and the family sold it. I'm thrilled!!!!!!! 108K miles and drives like new!!!!!!
Such a great channel. More people should know about it. Hit the like button
It sounded like not finding whitewall tires was a downer. NOT SO. The look of the black wall Tiger Paws on those wheels is the best! IMHO. As you said, Chris, "classic luxury." Thanks for posting. I think your GoPro works well, too.
What’s that old phrase we used to say, “Better to be lucky than good”? I live by that motto lol. Anyways, you got a steal of a deal!
Beautiful car! What luxury was meant to be. I love it! This one is a definite win! Great video. Video quality looked good.
Sweet! What a deal! This is probably the only 1995 car I would use as a daily driver even now. Enjoy it!
Go Pro picture is awesome, keep it up.
I'm a proud owner of a 2005 Lincoln Town car, these cars are just great all around. They're luxurious, but they still hold really good fuel economy for their size and feature set. And I got mine near showroom condition, so I was kind of afraid to do any of the maintenance myself, then one day I decided what the heck I'll do my own oil change on it. They even include a guide at the front end where the oil comes down from the drain plug and funnels instead of going all over the place, same for the oil filter, it all funnels into one spot and comes out nice and even. Small details like that are awesome. I install my own aftermarket stereo, two bolts and the whole entire dashboard comes off. I installed aftermarket speakers and subwoofer, there's so much room in the paneling is all easy to access, including going through the firewall for the power wires, it's just something you least expect from a luxury car. When you think luxury car you think big complex machines. But these Lincoln Town cars are definitely exceptional.
Love the color on this ! I’ve owned a 95 Town Car for the past 5 years. It’s the best car I’ve ever owned! You can’t beat the ride and yes it’s old school cool. Enjoy it !
Manufacturers really have forgotten that "luxury" and "sporty" and different things and don't really mix.
That car looks great by the way.
I completely agree with you and thanks for sharing that.
back then the caddy would been my pick, but this one is gorgeous!
Years ago... many years ago! I had a 1966 Ford LTD, and it had an extremely smooth ride. I'm with you. That seems like luxury!
Right on man and thanks for sharing and checking out the Town Car vid.
What a beauty! Thanks for saving it!
This is my idea of what a luxury car should be. You don't need a stupid infotainment system.
If I ever have the kind of money to own a second car these are on my short list
Had a handful and own a 99 Cartier with over 250k and a 07 with 114k. 99 left me walking once when hot side of stater wire broke. That's it in 9 years. And I got starter out, cleaned off, cut a old ground wire from a junk car and soldered it on and covered in black tape and went down to put it in and she fired up. Drove to pick n pull grabbed another and been going ever since. I love these cars. Easy to fix, have few issues and no serious issues and so big, 5 star crash rating all around, first American car to do so, and gets great mileage if you live in flatland. Or just drive with sense. Can't go wrong. I just wish I'd not always said, that's a grandpa's car, I need a firebird, or truck. No I should've gotten a panther and been alot richer, less wrenching, and more easily maintained. Change all fluids on schedule, seal up cowl vent, and have a DDM handy just in case. Ppl say trains weak. No never lost one yet. One fella had over 649000 miles and still going strong. Don't flush the tranny. Just filter and fluid. Ppl flush and start having issues cause they watch a video and it says so easy, unhook line in rad, start and let it pump out while putting new fluid in. No not with a panther. If you want to keep it going just what manual says.
@@kitjasabsgabs1830 I regret that I don't drive a Ford or Lincoln car. But I agree. I've heard people say that once they reach a certain mileage, or a certain age, it's time to junk the car. I disagree totally. Sure, it costs money to maintain a car and keep it on the road, but so what? It comes with the territory.
@@jasoncarpp7742 Unless it's a rust belt car too far gone then I can see that. But my buddy's Dad from Marines had a livery service in NYC. He'd buy these at 200k and over so they be cheap, freshen up what he wanted and ran them until they fell apart. And he didn't have alot of serious issues with cars he got from older folks. Just cars that wasn't serviced on time and properly or a short tripper car. A few had close to a million miles on them before the bad roads and salt finally won. Now what other car made in last 20 years can you achieve this with where parts are cheap and plentiful, has a frame so a deer smashing the bumper and grill won't bend unibody and be totalled, and first USA car to get 5 star all around in crash rating and ride like a recliner cloud and just be enjoyable to drive? I love them. All cars do have their issues, but these wasn't changed every few years with non proven parts. Pretty much same thing from start to finish. Body changed but frame, engine etc. Why? Not needed. Why fix what's not broke?
@@kitjasabsgabs1830 Very true. Some cars are too far gone to be worth saving. Even if they're mechanically salvageable the rest of the car might be too far gone to be driveable, and therefore, not salvageable.
Luv your vids dude you remind me of an old friend👍
I've always been a fan of the Lincoln Town Car...smooth ride, usually smooth power (those early/mid 80's ones...maybe not) and for a bigger guy like me...sits comfy in all seats...well not the middle seats. LOL Nice job getting it back to 98%! On the GoPro....better wide angle shots for sure. With all my talk about this car, I've never actually owned one. Driven well over 100 of them as rental cars (former Avis employee, yes they did rent Lincolns in Boston). Only thing this car is missing? Factory moonroof.
I have owned 2 Lincoln Mark VIII's, a 95 base and 97 LSC as well as a 95 Thunderbird with the 4.6l. I'll be watching to see if/when you sell it. Purdy color combo.
AWESOME VIDEO OVER THE YEARS SINCE THE 80'S MY FOLKS AND I HAVE OWNED 13 LINCOLNS IN TOTAL, 7 OF THEM TOWNCARS
YOU WILL NOT WANT TO LET THAT CAR GO THE MOST RELIABLE ENGINE EVER, AND THE MOST COMFORTABLE ENJOY YOUR TIME
WITH THAT BEAUTY, IF YOU GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET ONE WITH A SUNROOF LIVING THE DREAM. WHAT A LUXURY CAR SHOULD BE.
Living the dream!
Bro. ... Great car. Just bought a 1991 signature series w/112k. ... You have a great personality.
You are great for doing videos just like this.
Just watched it and might watch it again you are so likeable.
That interior is just beautiful ♥️
the interior color, condition, the comfort of the seats, simplicity. what a beauty
You found yet another diamond in the rough. What a great example of a Lincoln Towncar!
I can honestly say, I know how you feel am the proud owner of one of these beauties, mint condition 1997 executive edition 140000 miles and she runs like a dream smooth quiet ride,love it. Great video.
Your enthusiasm is contagious, you have good taste. That Lincoln is sweet and good luck with her!
Nice "score" love the economical repairs and I'm thinking you may do quite well with this one. Just gotta find the right buyer who isn't scared off by the age. 3K was not a steal (debatable I'm sure but we will see?) but the luck you had on the repairs was major and leaves you a window for a bit of profit I would think? It's going to make a solid inexpensive ride for someone and be quite a luxury comfortable riding land yacht. Nice flip also knowing your passing on a pretty solid car to someone.
I remember the 1990's and early 2000's when rental car companies would roll over their fleets. My rule of never buying a previous rental car stopped me from buying one at the time, though I probably missed out on a good opportunity.
You’re right! The Lincoln Town Car was a masterpiece. It’s a keeper.
Yes I noticed better video quality . This channel gets better al the time. The car looks new, for sure. Stay 💪 my friend.
So many people leave these cars without even trying to figure out the issue. When I got my 1998 Lincoln Continental, the engine was just fine, no rust, but the air suspension was on its last days and a worn alternator. Replaced those and this car has no issues whatsoever. It's quite an adventure looking for what's next, but before you know it, it's good to go
WOW that is clean interior...great job Columbo for the fixes...! Use Leather Love and Lithium Trim Serum for the plastic bumpers...claybar, polish, then wax this beauty...she deserves it!
Chris- We need content like this now helping people find alternative transportation sourcing away from the dealers. Keep the videos coming on the Town Car....
I always LOVED those cars ever since I lived in NJ and was a limo driver and O/O for a few years. If you work out of a car the Lincoln TC is the one to have because as a full time limo driver you're going to end up sleeping in it! After watching a few videos I was wondering how you knew so much about the intricate workings of a vehicle but not enough to recognize old school stuff in the junkyard; your voice resembles ChrisFix!
I have a 1996 Town Car. Most likely, the lower radiator hose on the 1995 in this video rests on a couple of plastic fingers attached to the fan shroud, as with my car. If you just pull the fan shroud straight up and out like this guy did, you're going to break those 2 plastic lower radiator hose supports attached to the fan shroud, and your lower radiator hose will then droop and rub on the left side support, and wear a hole in the hose. So, you will need to remove the screws holding the lower plastic cover underneath the front of the engine, first, then remove the plastic cover under the front of the engine, then push the lower radiator hose off of the 2 lower fan shroud lower radiator hose supports. Once the lower radiator hose is out of the way, you can pull the fan shroud out, but only after rotating the large plastic "C-clip" like front shroud up in its circular slot to allow the shroud to clear the fan blades. In other words, the shroud is actually in 2 parts, and the front part rotates up toward the top of the engine in a plastic track in the shroud to allow it to clear the fan blade and allow removal of the entire shroud. It's really pretty simple and logical, but I'm probably explaining it badly. I highly recommend CrownVic net and LincolnsOnline forum to explain this better.
Incredible how you have the knowledge to fix cars! I would LOVE to buy old cars and fix them up to resell. I wish I knew how. Best of luck with the Lincoln!
Good Video. Amazing Town Car. Thanks Chris
I love the green exterior but the interior color is exceptionally good looking! That car is a gem!
Congrats man! That's a real beauty. I just got an 06 town car last week with 65k miles and I'm in love!
I dig your channel,just kinda stumbled upon it,I bought my fist car in 1990 A 1977 Ford Pinto with 60K on it payrd $400.00 out the door ,one year later sold it to a buddy for $ 500.00 ,He totalled it in Hollywood 2 days later......
what a beautiful Town Car..you are correct luxury is not about touch screens, hard seats and a rough ride ...
What a cool car! I'm glad the repairs were cheap and easy.
Your videos and content and editing are great.keep doing what your doing,love the old school car videos. Thanks Chris
I have a 95 Lincoln as well, I got it off an elderly lady it has 120k miles. its pretty good condition I would say, but still I don't really now about vehicles, so the more videos you post about this car would be great.
What a beautiful car! Great color combination. The proportions on this model are perfect. Thanks for posting this!
I'm glad to see more people who enjoy these land yachts like I do. I've got a 97 signature series that my friends and I recently took on a Lemons Rally. It proved to be the ultimate road trip car and did the 2,000 miles from PA to GA like it was nothing!
I had a 94, same color. Miss that car. Ran her to 270k miles. The ball joints broke twice and I had to let her go. She was the best car I think I will ever have.
Funny. I bought a 1989 Town Car from Capital Auto Auction for $800 plus fees and it's one of my favorite cars to drive. So smooth and quiet.
The best lincoln town car to drive and enjoy 95 96 97 😍😍😍
Best to look at also.The slimmed out headlights that came from the freshening made the car pop a bit.
God, I love your channel. Always an enjoyable video every time! Such a beautiful town car! Appreciate ya!
Wow man, thanks so much. I really appreciate your kind words. And thanks for watching.
Love it Chris it's beautiful
Got to love it when its easy fixes.
Its the ride that makes you love it. A car you can sit in for hours long road trips makes it what it is. The new ones are great in their own right, but you can't beat the older ones as a great road tripping car.
And on cameras, phone videos work just fine for me.
I think this should be a keeper. Seems like a nice reliable cruiser
Looks fine. I didn’t notice a difference but am only watching from my phone.
Chris that cleaned up really nicely. I like the blackwalls, personally. I think they used to have a thin whitewall back then maybe Coker would have them. Nice car, bottom line!!! Video quality was great, I vote for the GoPro.
Now that’s a car!! Pure American luxury. Congrats Chris and the GoPro is an improvement.
"Lincoln: What a Luxury Car Should Be." The best tagline ever along with Cadillac's "Creating A Higher Standard."
If Im not mistaken...the commercial for that car was jeweler cutting a stone in the back seat while going over bumps....great car congratulations
Your Lincoln Town Car is beautiful especially the exterior color. That's great things that were wrong was minor. I had a 2006 & after 5 years I had an accident in the car in October 2020, now 7 months later I drive a 2017 Lincoln Continental Reserve, my second Lincoln.
Great video and quality!!
Fun video - love your enthusiasm!!
If a major car manufacturer could come out with a sedan (or perhaps a Crossover SUV) with the old school, floaty-boaty suspension and plush, comfy chairs and pair it with the latest tech for safety, navigation, and entertainment, they'd have a hit.
I had a continental. The air suspension pump blew out in a drive thru. Tore 2 of the Goodyear airbags . Lincoln water thousands to repair it . This was 20 years ago. I drove it for a while after bouncing up and down scraping the tires on the fender well . There are airbag delete kits now. Well worth the hassle
I thought the picture looked crisper. Great car. Great deal. You deserve it; glad you got a great one.
Love the panther platform cars. They really are the best for what they are.
What's a panther platform?
@@Sean-wp7st en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Panther_platform
What a score! You just know that car spent many miles driving back and forth on the GSP to AC.
If you have ever ridden in a w124, w126 from mercedes benz, you'll know what non tech luxury is all about.
Seemless long body, long wheelbase, high quality leather seats & high profile tyres. In all a superb combination to even out the undulations in the road and offer the epitome of ride quality.
I've been thinking about this TownCar nonstop since you got it. Camera quality is nice.
I say go for it. They're the bomb!
Video quality looks great with the Go Pro👌👍
What a WIN this car is! As a fan of cushy American cars, I totally get why you love it (now I want to get one!)
Also love how you were able to fix the issues yourself with some thought and a little bit of work. If you took this into the wrong mechanic and you didn't know any better, they could've easily screwed you out of a few grand worth of work.
I'm glad you were able to get the problem fixed.
Sweet Car ! I just bought a 1993 Lincoln Towncar Presidential Edition, white exterior and blue leather inside. Total mob mobile lol !
jeez that's a beautiful color. there's one at my local used car dealer that color with black leather but the clear coat is peeling. It has 250K miles on it
I just bought one of these at auction last week. Much nicer than I had expected.
What's cooler than being cool..? Ice Cold! 🎼🎶🎵
Sorry couldn't resist. Love these old Lincoln Town Cars. Love the interiors. Closest I've had is a 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis which I still have ( and only 32500 original miles ). Doesn't have the interior or the Lincoln, but it has an air ride suspension which is a joy to ride in...
it's the fact she's am old barge which makes he so good, when you place her next to todays cars there is this, that and the other to set/deal with or manage as you drive, in her you just sit back and enjoy the drive, I love it, especially when there is the added bonus ogf a cheap fix. Great vid.
I am a lincoln fanatic I've owned about 15 towncars crom 88 to 2010 and I love every one of them and I'd put the reliability up against any other car brand on the market
This is funny. As I am watching your video my friend, who turns car parts into furniture, sent me some pictures of the new desk he made. It is the front end of this very car in a light blue. He used the fenders and header panel and built a desk where the engine would be. What a coincidence. By the way I agree with you they should bring back these cars. Now that I am older and need a luxury car with soft suspension, they don't exist.
Love it! I just found a 1993 last weekend. What a machine!
Beautiful car! Uniroyal still makes the tiger paw in whitewall. But from what I hear they yellow. I need to pick one of these up 😍
Brilliant work! Just think how much repair shops would have charged and even then they probably wouldn't have fixed it right.
How much would they have charged to fix his turn signals? It was one hour to touch the steering column. Fixed.
@@mexicanspec At least $400.
Great video. New camera is fantastic!
Nice buy dude! I just picked a 2000 Lincoln Continental with 140k on the clock for $1800. Its been such an amazing car and it is in near immaculate condition. I absolutely love these older Lincolns. There is just something about driving them that is comfortable and doesn't at feel outdated. Everything works on my car, only down side is it has a little air suspension leak. Shouldnt be too hard to fix that though.
Nice score man on that Continental. I think at some point I'd like to get into a Lincoln from the same era that you have.
The car you have is front wheel drive, so it's better in the snow. Be sure to replace the serpentine belt, or it may break and your water pump will stop working, and your car will overheat and warp the head gasket, as mine did, in -15F weather.(If you haven't replaced that belt in a few years, do it, now. It's very cheap) Despite the tire pressure monitoring system on the top console constantly nagging me, that was my favorite car, ever. Had I replaced that belt, I'd probably still have it. The leather and wood interior was very warmly lit and comfortable in the winter. Many of the exterior panels were plastic, too, so those didn't become rust buckets. $1800 is really cheap; you did very well. Keep up on the maintenance, and you'll have that car for a many years.
Lincoln Town cars are the ultimate land yacht gems of yesteryear. I don't see a difference in the picture quality of the content but your narration acumen supersedes that importance.
Thanks man for the kind words and for your input on the video quality. I appreciate it all. Thanks again.
@@hullinger you got it.
Love it too! great color combo. Livery companies drive these things 300K or more. I say keep it and enjoy.
All town cars with that radio has the same problem with the on off knob. They just don’t stay in, you just have to turn the volume down. I have a 97 town car and love it!
Like the GoPro upgrade! And love the Channel! Keep it up Chris :)
