    rollback is interesting if the price is low enough, but I fear it would enable too many bad habits.

      Cheapo steelside wagon. Looks worth saving but needing a little TLC.

        It is really irritating when people cannot give details on their Ebay listing. Pictures are all messed up. Ebay has a tool that is easy to use for loading the pictures. Car might be nice and I could have someone look at it for me.
        No details = No trust in seller.

          Led headlights on the low beams at least. Looks nice but hard to tell.

            Most boxes for sale in Finland I've ever seen.
            3 LTC's, 1 MGM, 3 Vics and a Country Squire.

            Two recent listings caught my eye, almost identical spec, '90 Vics:

            Both stupidly expensive, even for here.

              An AM only radio with a 1992 part number. Surely for truck/van only use. I think I would have went for the radio delete credit or put up the extra to get FM.

                  How about a four button no cassette radio for very reasonable money?

                      Interesting.
                      I've been junkyarding a LONG time and I've never seen one that plain. I'd have remembered that.

                        I have a plain AM/FM from an 84 or 85 CV. May have been from a police car? WagonMan

                          I found that exact one last summer in the yard. It was in a low optioned 85 CV. Wish I had scavenged more parts from that car.

                            And for a whopping $5, I'll have it in a few days. If it's a bum radio, well, it was only $5.

                            Kinda tired of the aftermarket radio I have. Works good, but kinda clashes with everything else, so I'll do what I did with the '97 and swap back to a Ford radio. Might see about watching Gadget's video on how he adapted an auxiliary jack into an 80s unit and apply it to this one. I'll just need to look at a wiring diagram for that radio since the factory connectors in the '87 are long gone. Based on a little research, an '84 Lincoln brochure pointed towards that being the intro level radio in Mark VII. Wonder how many owners actually opted for that basic thing considering the car it was going in. I'm sure many opted for at least the cassette option.

                              Glad you can use it. Or try to. Hopefully the seller comes through on shipping it out. I have had a few cancel the order once they find out “free” shipping is free for the buyer but costs the seller!

                                I am glad you bought it. I figured someone here got it. If the seller flakes out, let me know. I am pretty sure I have a very plain one. Not much can go wrong with those
