**Please read the entire description below and do not skim over it**....I believe if you take the time to read to the entire post, I have answered most questions. If you have a legitimate question that i have not addressed in this post, then i will gladly answer it. I am very transparent and I want the next owner to know what I know, with no or minimal surprises. I have owned this car for over 10 years, and know it well. Every car has its gremlins and secrets. I am not here to hide, or deceive anyone, and I want the next owner to know exactly what he or she is buying. So please, READ EVERYTHING! Im 2nd owner of this car. I bought it with around 29,000 miles. I have always maintained it well, and used synthetic Amsoil (Anyone who knows, knows Amsoil is best of best and not cheap). This is a great daily driver, runs strong. Just over 108,000 miles. But keep in mind I still drive the car. I estimate at the end of auction the car will have around 109,000 miles. There are a lot of cosmetic issues like: here is what is bad /negative, and or not working: cracked windshield--- not sure what caused this, but its cracked at top of windshield and covers about have of total windshield. I have taken a picture of this check engine light is on --- I have had the Lincoln dealer hook up computer and reset this, there is no code, but it continues to come onno driver or passenger airbag exists-- this is due to me hitting a tree at around 15mph, it deployed both airbags, there was minor bumper damage which i fixed. i removed airbags check suspension light is on which results in airbag suspension needs replaced or removed and change out to springs--- my opinion is remove air suspension ride, replace with springs headliner is torn--- this is wear and tear, looks like crap trunk doesn't close and is secured with tie down strap --- the truck closes, but it has a motor to shut all the way. the motor is bad. i have tie down straps to keep it secure. see picno floor mats--- get them at walmart no horn--- due to removing airbags minor rust-- worst part is on roof, above driver passenger door. see pic minor bubble spots on hood--- see pics none of the power windows operate--- all motors are bad, none of the power windows work. dont try and lower them, they will go down but not back up minor scratches and other blemishes--- see pics hood ornament is missing--- someone stole this headlight glass is dull--- see pics cruise control is in operable--- due to removing airbags driver side mirror has large area of paint removal---- see pic Driver side rear passenger door has minor rust on roof--- see pic driver side rear passenger window slips and falls so i have 2 rubber door stoppers to hold the window in place--- see pic. this is the only window that slips on its own. rest hold position the passenger side dashboard is cracked severely---- due to heat / sun, get dash board mat air condition is cold, but the heat does not work--- a/c works great, but heat does not due to blendoor motor is bad, so i by-passed heater and is direct a/c. again a/c is great. must use high octane fuel or engine will knock--- i promise i would use cheap fuel if i could. if you use anything other than the highest octane the engine will knock. also you can not top off fuel tank or fill full or it will leak fuel, fill 3/4 full---- i think its a seal. but if you fill the tank, or top off, it will leak fuel. only fill max 3/4 fullpassenger rear tire is missing Lincoln emblem lug nut cap. only on cold start engine rev's, stops after 10min--- im told this is a vacuum leak somewhere? but on cold start it rev's for a bit, about 10min or so, then goes away. still runs strong, transmission shifts smooth. thats all i know negative with the car. its a great daily driver, or 1st time car. title is not grey, its clean title. runs good, transmission shifts smooth. i took a picture doing 75mph, no shake, no vibration, runs great at that speed or higher, doesn't pull to left or right. i have pictures of receipts for work that i have done. this car was my primary source of transportation, so i pretty much stayed on top of everything mechanical. the car doesn't leak a drop of fluid. it runs strong. I hit a tree around 15mph about 7 years ago and it deployed the airbags, damaged the bumper and quarter panel. i removed airbags, and replaced bumper and quarter panel. other than that whats stated above, everything else works. tires are in good shape, brakes good, whippers good, all lights good, interior is in decent shape, overall id say exterior is in decent shape. Ive owned this car since it had 29,000 miles and i have been very good with normal maintenance. engine is strong and transmission shifts smooth if your needing or looking for a solid running car, and dont care about cosmetic issues, then this will make a great daily driver. it has a 3inch tow hitch because the 1st owner was an elderly man who died, he had his electric wheelchair at the back of the car. I have never towed anything with it. clean title, no salvage. Pretty much i have mentioned above what is not working or that is bad / negative condition.. if its not mentioned above then its safe to assume that it is in working order. the reserve is very low in my opinion. if you have any questions feel free to call me at 321.480.8509 but please make sure you have read this entire description before calling or emailing. Most likely i have answered or addressed it. if there is something i have missed and not addressed or answered then i will gladly answer. please do not call, email, or contact me to end the auction and sell the car on the side. also do not call, email or contact me with a million questions.. i think i have done a pretty good job on describing the car as well as taking plenty of pictures. the pictures your are viewing were taken on friday 25 september 2015. car is located in cape canaveral florida, 32920. you are more than welcome to come by and see the car. a test drive is fine, but i will drive not you. again, please do not ask me to end the auction and sell the car on the side. keep in mind i still drive the car, so although its +108,000 miles, i am estimating there will be around 109,000 miles when this auction is over. any questions i have not addressed in this description please ask.. but PLEASE read this entire description before calling or contacting me. Last, ebay only allowed me to post 24 pictures.. I have a bunch more pictures, and also receipts of service done. call me and i can email them to you. 321.480.8509. thanks, Chris. pay me in person, all cash. dont come short or any stories of payments. if you have a low rating or i am suspicious of your your validity, i may cancel your bid and go to next in line. you will get a signed title. no license plate, no insurance. i have already canceled insurance and there is no license plate. you need to make arrangements for transport or legal ability to drive on the road. i will be reporting to the florida DMV who and when the car was sold to the same day or next business day.
