1991 Lincoln Mark VII LSC SE review from North America
"Off the chain, and Lincoln should still build it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have replaced the right air bag in the front of the car due to age, as well as the power steering pump, which that was my fault because the rack and pinion started leaking, and I didn't have it changed soon enough.
I started have electrical problem last year, and found the voltage regulator was bad; "word to the wise", make sure you purchase the heavy duty truck model regulator or you will be replacing it again; the light duty regulator will not last. I also replace the battery and alternator while I was doing the electricals.
I have decided to replace the fuel pump in the tank, and replace the mufflers and valve lifters, as well as the timing chain and oil pump as precautions.
Installed a GPS single din NAV system.
The paint's clear coat is in bad shape, and I've decided to get a professional job done on it, which will cost about 5000.00.
As for this car, it's my second M VII LSC and I will never part with it. As a matter of fact, in two years it will be a classic/antique here in Louisiana.
General comments?
I have owned several Mustangs, and found they were light, but this coupe is perfect for highway travel; once you set the course, you will be shocked at the gas mileage. If you can get your hands on one, you will be lucky.
