Well as I assume most of you know as of late I have had a few problems with my car,It is a pretty clean 1995 mark,its paid for and it just turned 150K on the odo.,it has the usual wear and tear of a highway driven 150k car,I started a few mods last year(magnaflows,K&N filter)and wanting to beef up this year (financially my life has finally turned around)any way It needs front struts.tranny pan leak(easy fix)just little annoying things.I don't really have time to work on these things (I spend about 50-55 hours @ work,and have a 3 year old)mechanics are getting expensive and it would be nice to have a car covered by a factory warranty. I LOVE the Mark VIII and especially my Mark.Just for giggles i strolled to a couple Ford and Lincoln dealerships(mistake)
Now I am thinking about a 2001 LS8(Black and sweet)or a Black Mustang Bullitt(a totally differant animal from the Lincoln).
I am leaning toward the LS,Because of my love for Lincolns and I have had a few Mustangs and with the boy a 4 door would be nice.
But I am having a very very hard time parting with the Mark.A lot of you are saying "Hell, if it is paid for just keep her"Well I can't I don't have the space the wife don't want her and it would end up as one of those project cars that never gets finished and eventually parted out in 20 years.
So what mods would be available for the LS,if I was going to do the terrible thing and trade the Mark,or would I be making a horrible mistake and just keep the real hot rod Lincoln.I know it sounds like my mind is made up,but I can be swayed easily.LOL
also you guys might say move up to a 97-98 Mark.thought of that too!but I don't want a re run of the air strut show(Having to replace)well thats about it please post your thought and I will keep you posted.thanks for listening
