Got a letter from the local Lincoln dealer today stating that they "need to acquire several pre-owned 1995 Mark VIII's in order to fulfill special manufactors requests and the new car manager has been authorized to buy back my vehicle". Just my luck....the resale value of Mark VIII's drops to...

I am seriously considering selling my 1995 Mark VIII LSC. I’ve got five cars and need to downsize (LOL). It has an 8/95-build date and was one the last ones built for 1995. I’ve owned it the last seven years. It has all the factory options except heated seats and I replaced those with a set...

Ok it wasn't my Mark VIII but my '03 Mach I. Has 4,000 miles on it and is really totally stock, no mods at all yet. What I'm getting at is the 03-04 Mach 1 motors can be had with automatics and and would probably make a great motor in a Mark VIII if you were in need of a new motor. These...

I got this off another forum and yes, it sure rings true. What's missing is one for Lincoln Mark VIII boards about....:) - "My door afar light won't go off" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hot Topics in Other Car Forums...

Congratulations to Matt T. (screen name: Squirrel) and Walt K (screen name: Walt). They made the January 2004 issue of Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords in an article called “Cruise Missiles”, the latest Luxobarge invitational. Matt ran of best for the magazine of 13.80 at 101.49 mph and Walt...

These boyz really got it going. Maybe we should set up our board with bio pages like these. Be sure to check out each one: http://www.drivenbyboredom.com/bling.htm ** Bill ** 1995 LSC-R'ed w/Recaro's and Cobra R's Veteran of Carlisle 2000/01/02/03 [a...

Anybody know what it means when your Airbag light on the dash flashes six times shorty after initial startup? My 91 LSC has been doing this for a while. I don't have a code reader to check but it seems to run fine. Thank in advance, ** Bill ** 1995 LSC-R'ed w/Recaro's and Cobra R's Veteran...

Bring lots of towels, last year I bought a couple of CD's from you but forgot to buy a towel :(. ** Bill ** 1995 LSC-R'ed w/Recaro's and Cobra R's Veteran of Carlisle 2000/01/02 [a href=//cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=258112]For Pic's and Mods click here[/a] ...Except for...

People over 40 should be dead. According to today's regulators and bureaucrats, those of us who were kids in the 50's, 60's, or even maybe the early 70's probably shouldn't have survived. Our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paint. We had no childproof lids on medicine...

[font color=black] [b] Getting close to "crunch time", let's hear your travel plans, ETA, guests, and if you're attending the dinner Saturday night. I'll be traveling from Charleston SC all day Thursday, arrive in the evening (probably 7 to 8-ish), and leaving out Monday morning. I'm bringing...

I know Geno has had his Mark VIII featured in several “MUSCLE MUSTANGS & FAST FORDS" magazine in the past few years but he made it in a more obscure way in the June 2003 issue. On page 36 in the “Ask Bernie, Yo Ken” question and answer column a 95 Mark VIII owner named “J. Maze” from Kansas...

Okay, here goes. Friday morning on my way to work I happen to catch the light lined up next to a big yellow GMC with what sounded like a big-block under the hood. From the sounds of the exhaust and the way the driver was winding the gears I figured it was geared pretty low also. The passengers...

If you plugged the vaccum line to EGR Valve on a Mark VIII engine 93-96 model will it cause any problems? I'm having a cold start problem for the first two or three minutes and I'm wondering if it could be the EGR Value. Back in the "day" of the early emission cars, plugging the hose to the...

OK....it was actually a 1971 Mustang Mach I that someone had put a 1973 Lincon Mark IV V-8 460 cubic inch V-8 into. They had added a 780 CFM Holley four-barrel and glasspacks. Probably about 250 hp by today's standard as it had the standard early 70's smog cam and other power killing smog add...
