Hello, and welcome to my 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII webpage. Built in May of 1997, it featured the all powerful InTech 4.6Liter 32V DOHC V8 engine. Basically a 96-98 Mustang Cobra motor. The Mark was truly ahead of its time, bundled with all the bells and whistles Lincoln offered back then. The standard features of this car are way too long to list, but what’s sadly worthy to list was Lincoln’s decision to discontinue the Mark series in June of 1998.

Factory HID's + High beams. The Mark VIII was the first to use HID lighting Technology domestically in 1995.5, did you even know what HID’s were in ’95? They became Standard on 97-98 Marks.

Neon lighting up at night, the benefit of using neon-tube light is not only looks, but the reaction time. It can help drivers behind you to break as soon as 60 feet sooner then Conventional light bulbs at highway speeds.

And....... Engine compartment... my favorite part, 280 Horses of pure muscle, powerful enough to transmit this beast from 0-60Mph in less then 6.3Secs, and high 14’s in a 1/4Mile STOCK.

Thanks for your comments.

Actually, I just used electrical tape to cover every other slat (You can never tell, even in person.) You can break them once you decided that you like the look, and prefer to make it permanent. Or you can Spray paint them.
