    1981 Lincoln 2 Door

    Thinking about pulling the trigger on this one. There asking $2500 OBO my best offer may be like $1900. Looks clean but I need to hear it run and drive it first. Price may go down more.

    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    For my brothers wedding in 1980, my father borrowed a Mark VI from his work and it had a rechargeable flashlight in the glove box.

    If you go to look at it, see if there is a charging plug in the glove box.

    That is a very rare car.

    It may not be considered a super collectible in the future, but you will definitely not find another one in future classic car shows.

    If it is a Town Car coupe, 4935 were made in 1981. If it is a 1981 Mark VI, quite a few more were made that year {18,740 units}. Nevertheless, I agree with the above quote. I second the vote on the variable venturi carburetor that was equipped on Ford vehicles of that era.

    That car's a Towncar coupe.

    I'd bet my Social Security check on it.

    Body looks sharp from those pictures. Cars like those are fun to put mildly worked engines in and have a sleeper-hot-rod-cruiser.

    I like the general shape of the car but the wheel base seems short. GLWP

    Beware of the variable venturi! An Autolite 2100 would be a good substitute.
