1987 Lincoln Mark VII LSC review from North America
"Big Lincoln luxury, fast 5.0 V8 power, all in a park-able, reliable coupe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First off, all of the parts I needed I found online real cheap...
The rear rotors were shot, so I replaced them, along with brake pads...
I needed to replace the windshield, cost $139+ tax.
New tires.
The air suspension was acting up. At first I thought it was the air bags. But before I ordered the part, I checked the compressor and dryer, turns out that was the problem... Found it on eBay for $130, while the dealer wanted $500+... Easy work to replace.
Window regulators went out... Winters coming so I'll just wait till summer to fix that.
General comments?
Fast as hell, burns ricers all day. Parts are easy enough to find online. Reliable stylish tough luxurious ride. Definitely will be getting a 4.9L Mark VI next time. The ride is so fun!
