Seller is one of the originators of Mustang Week, Southeast guys know what I'm talking about. So yeah, the car is A-1 mechanically.

Thanks guys, wish I saved my money, I could have got a newer Mark VIII with less miles than my old one instead... But since i can't, its in the for sale threads for someone here to jump on it.

Hey guys, came across this and instantly thought someone here would want it. If I didn't have my Caddy I would have been on it. Apparently people are lowballing him even though the price is more than fair. The seller's number is in the first post on there, so I'm not trying to get anyone to join...

Hey LOD, it's been a second since I last visited. Sold the Jeep for double what I paid for it (and that's with 2K more miles and having wheeled it just about every weekend... gotta love tax time lol), and then this Caddy dropped in my lap. 2001 Deville with only 71K on the clock. Newer, cleaner...

Aw come on guys! I was like 7 when that commercial aired, not like I was sitting there watching the Flintstones and during the commercial break saw this and was like "Wow, that new Lincoln lowers itself, I want one in like 9 years when I can drive." LOL.

Well, glad you got what you needed. Us rednecks would have used duct tape instead of RTV, lol. I could have swore that was the TB gasket... Also, the site I used to look up part number F3LY-9F826-D listed it as such. Sorry about that, guess you learn something new every day.

And there you have it from one of them more seasoned people. Thanks Chris.

So I drove a buddy to a dealership to buy a car. While he was in the office doing paperwork, this 83 Lincoln Mark VI caught my eye. Let me tell you, this car looks like it just came off the assembly line. In and out, I was looking for flaws and did not find any. Under the hood there's a little...

300hp Cobra mustang motor LOOK IT UP! And does the suspension seriously lower the faster you go? It's a Lincoln, not a damn Bugatti... (I bought mine with the air suspension shot and converted to coils and shocks, this is why I ask).

Well, I am not sure about using a sway bar from a 90 Bird. It is a different body style from a mark VIII (they had mark VIIs back then), which I am not very familiar with. I'll let one of the more seasoned folks pick that one up. I'm not a big fan of the Jmod, although I know a couple folks that...

Another Toy Well, since us rednecks can't stay out of the mud, I bought this here 96 Grand Cherokee with a 3" Rough Country lift and 31s. It has just over 200K on it with rebuilt motor and tranny. It's no Caterpillar but I'll tell you what, with me behind the wheel, I bet it can wheel any trail...

Oh, ok. And sorry to hear about your pops. I'd personally keep the 351W. It is a motor geared more towards torque than horsepower, but with little work (most of which you mention), you can make it just as fast, if not faster, than the 4.6. That way, you can use the extra time and money towards...

Man, 2 of your cars bring back memories (and I'm only 26). The Fox, enough said. And the Mark VIII... well just look at the pics of mine and you'll see what I mean. The Cougar was a beauty in that pic with the Fox, if that was not good enough for you, I can't wait to see what it looks like when...

You'll hold on to it, or be kicking yourself in the ass like me about letting it go. While some parts for Mark VIIIs are hard to come by, when you do, people will sell them to you dirt cheap, since there's little demand for them. Post some pics of the old school Cougar when you get a chance. I...

I too have had a fox body. It was a 400+ hp beast with a cammed 351W, and I was crazy enough to drive it daily before I was making good money. It was a victim of a drunk driver in Wilmington that t-boned us and totaled it. My (former) insurance company sent me a $2500 check for a car I had...
