Page One: The Beginning.

These were taken about two weeks after I bought her and following a 1500 odd mile weekend trip to upstate New York. I removed two large trash cans worth of garbage from the inside of the car.

gadget73's 1986 Lincoln Town Car The trunk, post cleanout and still with too much junk in it. You can see the speaker box from my truck jammed on the package shelf. Its since been put back in the truck and replaced with a pair of 12" in a bandpass box.

The sad rear bumper. Gotta love farm vehicles. gadget73's 1986 Lincoln Town Car

gadget73's 1986 Lincoln Town Car I replaced the orig 86 "waffle" grille with this one from an '84 because the old one looked like crap. The chrome was all gone and it was cracked in a few places.

Needs some interior work.

Original engine following a quick detail job. Its since gone to the graveyard, also known as the back of Scott (lincolnmania)'s van.

Hey man nice TC. The cloth seats 10X better than the leathers. The '84 grill looks great too.

See you on the forums.

I like the car. I just purchased one myself not sure what I'm going to do with it but I like what you have done with yours It looks very nice. Do you know what the stock power plant hp is though just wondering. And 84 grill bolts right up. I like that looks a little more classy. Check out mine Thanks.

I had the same warped door on my glove compartment on my 87 TC. Shows character. I took 4 of those large paper clips (the black ines about 1-2 in wide) & with some Crazy Glue Gel, the clips pulled it back into shape. I have a 97 now but my 87 always ran smoother & rode better.
