This is a very nice car, as can be seen in the pictures (NOTE: the left rear floor mat is clean and unstained - not sure what is going on in the pic). I bought it 3 years ago from the 2nd owners who had bought it in late 1988 (1st owner was a lessee, thus the title never left Ford until 2nd owners purchased). It was well maintained and always garaged in the South (no salt!). It does show and run/drive VERY well, but please keep in mind that it is a 28 year old car (no warranty expressed or implied!). Pluses are many including: Michelin Symmetry tires with 10K miles on them, new battery in Summer 2013, the optional JBL Audio System that seems to work well, the fully functional digital dash, and the great color scheme (optional "Glacier Blue Metallic" - no dull colors of the era here). Issues are few and minor, but I'll do my best to pinpoint them: both front door armrests have wear (one has an aftermarket cover - see pics), driver's power window has recently become intermittent (new window motor included), the A/C has been converted to R134A and cools well - but, will randomly temporarily turn warm under hard acceleration (vacuum issue?). Since I've had the car, starts usually require a fuel pump prime before attempting to crank...I'm told the fuel pump "check valve" is losing its touch and allowing fuel pressure to fall off after car is shut off - the pump itself is fine. Finally, the side window run channels have dried out and are noisy (replacement material included - I never got around to this). With all of that said, this is a nice car worthy of an interested owner. I had planned on keeping and perfecting it, but have decided to start the hunt for a nice Mark VI. I've been a Lincoln & Continental Owners Club member since I was 17, and I know these '80s Lincolns very well....so shoot me a question and/or a request for specific pictures, and I'll respond ASAP.
