I bought this car in June of 2004 from an elderly woman. The air suspension was flattened out, had bad wheel bearings, spray painted "powder coated" wheels, chopped off mufflers, clearcoat chips missing from front and rear bumpers, bad headliner, cracked leather on upper part of driver's seat, cigarette hole in passenger seat, horrible transmission, malfunctioning CD changer, a bad misfire in the #8 cylinder, bad rear seats, a bad O2 sensor, missing left side headlight lens, big crack on passenger side of windshield, a missing rear chrome trim piece, and a few other small things.

I have since had the transmission rebuilt with 8 months remaining on the warranty. The air suspension setup was removed and a spring conversion kit was installed, which also has about 6 months left on warranty. I have replaced the wheel bearings, however the front passenger side has gone bad again for some strange reason.

I have replaced the rear seats from a junkyard car so they are nearly perfect now. The front passenger seat is in pretty good shape, other than a cigarette burn. The driver's seat has a single tear on the upper part around the Lincoln emblem. There is a piece of woodgrain trim missing from the passenger front door. The center console arm rest is slightly cracked. Both driver and passenger front door arm rests are slightly cracked. The 5% tint looks awesome from the outside, but appears uneven from the inside. Most of the carpet is in good shape, except for a couple minor stains here and there. It never came with floor mats, so I'm using some rubber ones I had laying around. The grill is painted body color, but I think it looks much better than stock IMO.

Before the car is sold, I am almost 100% sure that I will have some new headlight lenses put on, stock floor mats, put on the missing trim pieces (interior and exterior), and do a few other touch up things.

The car looks really good IMO, both inside and out, but it's just a list of small problems that plagues the vehicle. It runs decent, but the misfiring is bothering me and I don't have the money to figure out what it is, I can't even afford to take it to a shop right now since I'm trying to pay for college.

I hate to sell it, but I need something that gets a little better gas mileage to drive around town in. Please ask if you want me to take any more detailed photos and I will be happy to.

PRICE: $3000 firm
