Its amazing what a bath and detail can do for a car.

Learn how to recondition any battery
If you own older classic cars you know better than e anyone that you have to replace dead batteries more often than you would like to.
In the car business I replace a lot of batteries but since I purchased this course, now I’ve been able to save thousands of dollars reconditioning batteries instead of buying new ones.

The best driving/riding car EVER. This car floats on the road. Had one back in the 80s and have to be the best car I ever had.
Nice save!!! Ford 302 won't die. Town Cars like the Vics are built to fleet standards for long term, hard work. My 87 was parked in a shed for 6 years before I got it up here and repaired it personally. Just passed the annual safety. Very inexpensive cars, decades of knowledge, lots of life ahead.
I worked for a guy from Japan, and whenever he would come to the states, he would always want to rent a new Lincoln town car. Lotta good memories from those years.
Looks like a skilled driver, who was courageous enough to drive it after sitting after 14 years!
I was cooking with the fan on, and was like “ what on earth? My fan is squealing! Oh no Im gonna have to buy a new microwave!”
Nope!
Good ol FoMoCo! Sorry Henry!
That's exactly the Lincoln I gave my father when it as new and he had it 17 years; how I wish I had the room to keep it when he passed and wish I could find it again now :(
Beautiful!
That armrest has a bolt that can be tightened so that it won't flip backwards.
Thank you I’ll take a look
Check that kickdown cable grommet, if you know these cars then you know it costs $2000 to fix that 2 dollar part. Like the one behind it.
Will do thank you
1st order of business. Take the Gaudy ridiculous continental kit off. Beautiful car, I've had several
Are you kidding? Leave it on. I just purchased one specifically because it had that fake spare tire Continental kit. Back in the 80s I always wanted a town car with that fake spare tire.
Beautiful ❤ car beautiful special horn
Absolutely beautiful. It's a shame they don't make cars like that any more. Let's see if they bring back the Continental
next year?
A Beauty!
The fuel pump still worked after sitting that long? Did you have to drain old fuel and refill?
repiar connecting rod for door hanlde to open from outside inside should work fine
And you have a Rolls Royce too, is that part of your collection?
Yes
We try and find cars that have been sitting and then get them cleaned up and running and keep some and sell some
I am surprised the gas was still good
We put additive and fresh gas
Didn't the gasoline go bad?
We added fuel additive and fresh 93 octane gas
It's a beautiful car ! Enjoy best of luck.. I always use premium fuel in mine.
Selling it???
Yes it’s for sale
$12900
@@carguys6779 yikes for that price I’m assuming all the gaskets have been changed since they most likely dry rotted

14 year old gasoline? C'mon man.....I don't think so! 🤔🙄
For a car to just sit a long long time is extremely bad !!! if it was just sitting, that is. Now if the lady did drive it a little bit, once a month and turn the key sometime so start the engine that would be ok, but if this car was just sitting dead for 14 years then its a good car for parts maybe.

My 1988 Town Car Cartier sat for 12 years before i bought it, with a few Rubber part's Changed, mainly coolant hoses, and a Fuel pump, its been driven daily for the last 6 years with not one single Break down, these cars are over built mechanically and take more punishment than most regular car's, Ive owned 3 of these 1980's Town cars, all of them were great cars, i still Drive my 88 Cartier everyday!! Basically if you do Proper maintenance to these cars which i do myself they are cheap to operate, one personal Suggestion is to perform Regular transmission fluid changes every 30,000 Miles, then your prolonging the life of the transmission (The tranny is the weakest Part of these cars!), i highly recommend regular fluid changes on the Brakes and engine oil , to anyone looking to drive one Daily, these cars are like the Energizer Bunny and just keep going!
