    That 83 Colony Park is exempt from inspection(good thing as it fails) but it will end up as a demo derby. Very few people want old cars here. No heater in Maine ? No hope for it.

          I'd love to have a Fairmont/Zephyr as a get-around-to-it project. Can't get enough of those wagons.

            Some Lincolns this time. I usually don't search for Lincolns since the extra boxy box Lincolns don't really appeal to me. Most of the ones I found are a bit pricy.

              The boxy-box lincolns are the ones i love the most! That's why i'm considering an '82 even though it's got homeboy 13" daytons on it. The price is decent at 2500obo but it's an hour drive for me and i haven't got much in the way of spare time these days. May just spend the money on the ridiculous turbo kit i've always wanted. Had a fit of wanting to buy something neat lately so we'll see how this plays out...

                Hmm... the price now says $2000, he must be getting blown up with inquiries. $1500 would have been a steal even with the faded paint and worn seats. Not the first time I've seen that happen on a wagon ad.

                  All very nice.
                  The only ones I think I've seen are the '88 and '89 in OK.
                  Box Lincolns aren't really my thing either, but if I were in the market for another car I would consider one if a great deal came along.

                    Isn’t the white 82 actually an 83? It has the newer style stereo.

                      It’s got the 82 steering wheel. I’m thinking the radio was replaced.

                        Yeah, that’s true. 83 the cruise buttons moved down....but in 82 AFAIK you could still only get the older larger radio (like the 79 barge Lincoln’s had). I guess they could have swapped the trim panel out.

                        The 83 Brochure even shows a picture of the “all new” electronic stereo.

                        The picture with all the books show 82 so there’s that too

                            Both nice, but that '87 351w CV... why aren't they on here? lol
                            I see another red box (CV?) in the background there, and they seem to know what they are talking about.

                            The whale would be a good beater but I don't already have parts cars for one of those.

                              I kinda love that '87. Even has the formal roof. I'd over $1,100 and go from there.
