The Lincoln Mark VIII has passed. She made it to 250,069 miles. The official cause is a cracked head. She rolled over the one quarter of a million miles on Christmas day 2007. My wife and I memorialized the occasion by taking some pictures of the odometer at the magical 250k mark. One December...

Anybody have a good set-up to put auxilary or driving lights behind the grill in a Gen 1. Will this work well? I've tried everything short of HID's to get better lighting and nothing really works. I've tried new halogen housings, HIR bulbs, etc. The price of an HID set-up is now about...

I just picked this up over the Thanksgiving break. She's a 2002 6-speed with 9,000 miles on it (I picked it up with 8,400 on it). The color is called Magnetic Red II(my first color choice). I picked it up in Ohio and drove her back to NJ this past Sunday. I've been waiting to get this car...

This past friday night I was on my way home from work and found myself lined up next to a 2004 Mustang GT (old body style). I knew is was a 2004 because it had '40th anniversary' badges. Before we even started, I thought I would lose. The light turns green and we both nail it. I had the lead...

Anybody willing to pay this...

How easy is it to have the cats replaced on this car? I've got what I think is a rusted out Cat and it will need to be replaced. If possible, I'd like to replace both with high-flow cats. I've already got a cat-back exhaust (that is 5-6 years old). Can high flows be welded right in without...

I need to put a BIG thanks out there to these 3-guys, Blue Collar (Eddie), BlackIceLSC (Craig), and Nightsky (Mike). I replaced my air suspension this past weekend with Eddie's www.americanairsuspension.com coil conversion kit using BlackIceLSC's detailed directions. While doing that, I...

Dumb question related to rear springs.........is the more compressed end of the spring the top or bottom of spring? I'll be starting this job tomorrow, so please answer asap, or i might be putting in these springs upside down. ;-) Ken

A couple of weeks ago my air suspension kicked the bucket. My car is a 1993 with 202,900 on the clock. The orginal pump finally stopped pumping. At the same time my rear bags leaked over night and the fronts had a slower leak (2-3 days). Based on all this, I ordered the coil spring...

We finally made it!!!! 200,000 miles! We rolled over the big 200k on Saturday 4/26/05. I picked up my 1993 Mark VIII in December 1996 with 24,500 miles on it. It has, by no means, been a reliable trip to 200k as it took 3-transmissions, 5-engines and a pile of other parts to get here, but we...

There is a very nice 1993 Mark VIII for sale at a dealership near my house in Neptune, NJ. It has 101,000 miles and has a price on it of 3,450. The car looks to be garage kept for at least part of its life because the paint is not faded at all and the rear window moulding is the best I've seen...

It sounds funny no matter how many times you say it...........My rear is leaking. ;-) Anyway, I need to have the rear differential cover pulled off and the fluid drained and the gasket replaced or the cover re-sealed. Is there a gasket back there or is it just silicon or something? I'm...

I posted about this problem I’ve been having with my tranny about 15,000 miles ago. The car shifts absolutely perfect except for WOT 1-2 shifts. The shift is delayed and shifts hard. Kind of like when the 1-2 spring is broken, but this only happens at WOT. I had the tranny rebuilt about...
