(by CFlo) Look at this Town Car – it’s clean AF. $6k asking, in a great color combo, 102k miles, and it’s the early version of this generation. To me the bigger headlights and older rectangular dash of the 1990-’94 work much better with the overall design theme vs. the facelift and swoopy mid-90s dash […]
Its isn’t often that you get to drive around in a vintage Lincoln Town Car AND save polar bears at the same time…but it isn’t often that you’ll find a Jack Nicklaus Signature Series Town Car for sale. While it might look like all the other front-drive malaise mobiles that survived into the 90s, this […]
Sub $1k cars tend to be sketchy at best. You might find an old Volvo 240 that has issues starting or a rusted out pile of 80s whatever…but increase your budget to $2k and suddenly you can get a car that you could drive every single day. This next car comes from a towing company […]
Sometimes in the morning when I get up, I feel old. My joints are stiff and my head is pounding for a cup of coffee — which is something that didn’t happen a decade (or so) ago. But that’s okay, because being old has its advantages. You get to say things that you felt as a younger person, but didn’t say. You get to dole out your experience to young whippersnappers and tell them how easy they have it these days. But the best part, is that you get to drive a comfortable car. No more stiff, low, sporty cars, no…we don’t need them to get to church on time on Sunday morning or to get your latest prescription filled at the pharmacy at 10am on a Tuesday…no. But what we do need is a car that drives like a 5000 lb marshmallow and has a seriously sweet throwback radiatoresque grill. Now, get off my lawn. Find this 1989 Lincoln Town Car offered for $5500 in East Windsor, CT via craigslist. Tip from Cory.
This is all the money (and then some) for a ’93 Lincoln Town Car…but if you are in the market for something strange from the 90s with super low miles…you don’t have many choices. But the only problem with this car is that you can’t drive it. The second the odo turns into quintuple digits, […]
The 3rd and final generation of the Lincoln Town Car was built from 1998 through 2011 on a chassis shared with the Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis/Marauder, and Hongqi Qijian. Out of the million Town Cars built in this generation, a few were of the plus “long wheelbase” version that added 6 inches of rear […]
The third and final generation Lincoln Town Car was sold from 1998 until 2011. Panther platform fans, taxi companies, and police departments all over the US bemoaned the eventual death knell of body of frame Town Car, Crown Vic, and Grand Marquis. Town Cars came stock with 16″ wheels fitted with tall smooth riding 60 […]
It may look it, but your computer screen is not out of focus. One of the biggest behemoths to roam the highways in the late 1970’s has been shrunken to closely resemble a Shriners parade car. The entire backseat, rear doors, and corresponding wheel base length out of a Town Car sedan have all […]
Let’s start off Loony Labor Day with a simple custom that isn’t any more bizarre than the average crap classics we post on a regular basis. This homage to Homerica started out as a second generation (1990-1997) Lincoln Town Car sitting on the Panther platform shared with the Mercury Grand Marquis and Ford’s Crown Victoria. […]
The Lincoln Town Car was a favorite of octogenarians, cabbies, chauffeurs…and…welll…that is about it. It wasn’t a bad car per se…it had just lived well past the expiration date on Ford’s aging design guidelines. In spite of all that, it sold surprisingly well for a luxury car, with over 100k units during most years during […]
