Marty, you got yourself a real nice Lincoln for the Mrs. If you do a lot of mods to it, the wifey may say to you; "You're goin to drive me to drinkin' if you don't stop drivin' that Hot Rod Lincoln."[Intro to the 1972 hit from Commander Cody]

Well George (White Knuckles) arrived home with the car at 1:30 a.m. in the morning. His white glove service included having the car washed before I got it this morning!
I picked the car up this morning and it is clean!!!!
I replaced the battery and put new wiper blades on it. Also fixed the hinge on the center arm rest. All that's left is to do a full fluid service.
This car is a highway marshmallow. It was a great transaction with Carlos and I really like it.
THANKS CARLOS!!!!

Smooth ride, no vibrations, tracked straight.
I just set it on cruise , cranked up the tunes and kicked back.
It was a longer ride.... but I'm getting where I dread getting on the Delta Flying Bus. 6'6" doesn't fit well in coach.
I set Marty up with gps tracking, so he could follow the progress from his phone. He knew every time I stopped for another Bean Burrito

Glad everything went well Marty. You got one help of a deal. Have a few people call me today to buy the car. George glad the drive went well and you didn't get into any trouble.
Marty how about that engine bay for a jersey car? I think its time for you to post some pics now.
It was a pleasure doing business. Take car of her and good luck. I know you got a great car.

It is a great car indeed.
In addition to the flawless drive that George had bringing it down, I drove it about 150 miles today.
The wife loves it but I think we will be sharing it.
Very comfy!!!
Thanks Carlos!!!!!!!

Why is it still active on Ebay?

I've tried to cancel it but it does not let me because its a reserve price? I just don't understand. I did went in and added in red letters the word SOLD towards the bottom a few times but people keep betting on it.

I wanted to see if the auction ran to the end what happened.
Did an oil change and trans service today. By Friday I will have the emissions and tags done.

I drove my dad's former '99 Town Car today. 98k miles and runs like a dream. Such a buttery smooth ride. My mother in law owns it now.
Congrats on your new Lincoln Marty.
Senior Member
Should have done the j-mod while you were there. How did the trans fluid look with only 64k miles?
Senior Member
Marty, believe it or not the car did meet its reserved price. I guess someone made a high bid.
MO derator
The car had never had the trans serviced so I am glad I did it while I was piddling with the car. I generally do this sort of service about every 30,000 miles on my personal cars unless the car is getting beaten up and then I might do it more often. On the other hand, I have seen folks run past 100,000 miles without doing a service.
Meanwhile, under the hood was CLEAN!
I removed the fron license plate mount (not required in GA) and the dealer identifier on the trunk.
All I have left is to find the twist locks for the radiator cover panel and a plastic beauty cover for the driver's shoulder harness bolt. Then the car will be brand new!
I still can't get over how quiet the car is!!! I was working in the shop and I could not even hear the car over the shop heater.
I can't wait to start commuting in this thing. It is not terrible on fuel at all. Looks like it gets about 23ish on the highway. Not bad for a boat like this!!!
