Yup, in the trash with those gawdy things.
But, nice car indeed! Loaded with options too. Too bad it's a Mercury and not the Ferd version.

Can confirm. Years ago my wife had an '89 Town Car. Ran fine for years and then started fouling #8 once the valve seals went bad. Would foul that plug within 230 miles.
I wouldn't even pay 10k for that thing. I've seen nicer ones with more desirable option combos pop up for much less. Just like that minty Mark VIII I posted several days ago, they do happen. Not...
Yeah.. That's why I couldn't fathom paying 17k for something like that. Especially that F'n car. It's just not worth it.
Man, and I thought I was pessimistic :lol3: Every car has imperfections, even that one. Your car has a story, most importantly that it was once your dad's car. No other box can say that.
C'mon...
Welp, that listing and people bidding it up beyond 17k want to disagree with you lol. I agree, I don't think you get nearly what you put in but I guess it's all about marketing within the right...
Wouldn't it pretty much be the same people as before? I think they'd just start to get miffed and wait for another car, I know I would. You should put your car up there, wouldn't be surprised if it...
Definitely a maintenance thing, well, lack of it. Could happen in under 100k I suppose, like, if you only change the oil every 20k/5 years. Great indicator as to an engine's health though. So if...
I think it's funny how popular US stuff is outside of US, but not within the US. Here, it's practically as if no one cares, you're practically sneered at if you're into this type or older US...
Sure as hell beats the three or four inch monstrosity Town Cars got, sheesh.
Wow, what a greedy little prick. I'd be happy if my Town Car sold for $6,800.
Err.. Yah, those all look pretty bad to me.
That cop car is nice! Looks similar to the one they used in Blues Brothers 2000. If I had to have one, a black & white is what I'd go for. That or Michigan State Pooper blue.
Because RESTOMOD!!! 'MERICA FUCK YEAH! :facepalm:
Right??
I kind of chuckle when people take very late model or new cars and rip the factory aluminum wheels off in favor of aftermarket junk. If only they knew how expensive & well made those...
LoL I dig it. Certainly not my first choice but to me, anything is better than gray.
Yah, fortunately one could easily undo that.. "upgrade" by the previous owner.
It's Jay Leno.
/s :lol3:
Reminds me that when I was in middle & high school equipped with a walkman and huge headphones, I'd peruse my dad's stash of CD's. Having similar taste in music saved me lots of money back in those...
I spy lots of good tapes/bands in there. :cool:
She ain't exactly base as it's got rub strips, rear defrost, A/C, cruise, tilt and all that. Interior is base though. Big bummer on the blah gray interior, needs to be saddle or porno red. Big fan...
Oh, aren't rustangs equipped with cable clutches? My Colorado had an awfully stiff clutch right from the factory, I hated it.
Like gadget said, I think those transmissions are pretty damn decent...
When the thrill of living is gone, so am I. When I'm no longer able to support the tribe by providing provisions, I do not want people caring for me. Think of me as old yeller. My hobbies are a...
Shouldn't even be firm. The one in the junk $200 truck I bought recently is easy just like I remember my Ranger and Ashley's '90 F150 being. I think the factory ones are easy, and that replacement...
..Have you tried dating? Why is it people approach it this way? I can't help but scoff at this attitude. No one tells me how many cars I can own, how many speakers/amplifiers I purchase nor do I...
