Above average condition 1988 Lincoln Mark 7 LSC with 302 HO engine and Automatic transmission. Oxford White with Dark Blue leather interior. Original leather interior in above average condition with factory carpeting and headliner (Sale includes a set of floor mats). Factory JBL Audio System intact except for original head unit which was replaced with a Sony cassette deck that doesn’t work. Exterior paint is original with the exception of the front end which was repainted at some point. Paint on roof and deck lid thin in places as this is a single stage paint job. Some small door dings in deck lid and quarter panels but nothing major. Lower rocker accent color was recently repainted. No rust, no funky smells or cigarette reek or pet dander issues. Front fog lamps missing but all other hardware for these intact. Factory alloy wheels refinished and shod with four matching tires that have about 10K left. Power windows and mirrors all work. All weather stripping nice. New windshield and windshield wipers….wiper arms refinished. All molding around windows refinished where vinyl tape peels off over time. Original motor has never been part and recently passed California smog. New Air and oil filter, oil and spark plugs. Air cleaner silencer intake removed for better breathing. Newer alternator . Brand new radiator, hoses and coolant with complete system flush. No oil smoking, noises or engine warning light issues. Air ride system gone though and has newer Arnott bags at all four corners as well as a number of O-rings. ABS system extensively flushed and brand new accumulator installed. To be clear….NO Brake or Suspension warning light issues. Newer brake pads/shoes and strut/shocks at all four corners. Newer front ABS sensors. Air conditioning system just topped off with R12 and proper oil. Ignition switch replaced but key has not been cut to match original door pattern. Runs/ drives great, is reliable and would make an excellent daily driver. This vehicle is on the same platform as a Mustang of the same year (Fox body).
The Trip Minder on these vehicles has an issue wherein it beeps on startup to warn you when the fuel level gets low. Over time the capacitors leak and it warns you even when the tank is mostly full. This car is no exception although it seems to do it intermittently of late. The unit can be sent out and repaired by a specialist –or- you can just hit the Reset button on startup and the beep is cancelled.

Mulally wanted to kill Lincoln as late as last year, Fields vows to turn it around
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Lincoln fans might want to give incoming Ford CEO Mark Fields a pat on the back for having a hand in saving the brand from the chopping block last year. He's among the people spearheading the rejuvenation of the division away from its stodgy image to appeal to younger customers.
According to two unnamed sources speaking to Bloomberg, CEO Alan Mulally was ready to kill Lincoln last year. Following the slow production ramp-up of the MKZ combined a with a costly ad campaign, Mulally was frustrated and openly suggested dropping the brand. However, Fields and Jim Farley, Ford's marketing boss, convinced the CEO that the brand was worth saving. They also created a plan to prevent similar problems for new models in the future.
It seems that one part of the strategy may involve waiting until new models are at dealers before starting a big ad campaign for them. Lincoln global director, Matt VanDyke, recently told Autoblog that the division is holding off on a full marketing push behind the new MKC crossover to prevent the supply problems that plagued the MKZ last year. Its big offensive begins in the fall when the CUVs are at all of the dealers and consumers are at home watching more TV. VanDyke also told Bloomberg that Fields, Farley and Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of the Americas, have more direct oversight over new product launches now.
Ford recalls 591,177 vehicles in four separate campaigns
Wed, Apr 29 2015Ford is issuing recalls for a total of 591,177 vehicles worldwide, in four separate campaigns. The announcement comes just days after the discovery of door-latch problems in 390,000 of the automaker's cars. The largest of these new recalls covers 518,313 examples of the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ from the 2013-2015 model years, plus the 2015 Edge. Of these, 487,301 of are in the US and 31,012 are in Canada. For vehicles in cold-weather areas, the bolts that hold the steering gear motor can corrode and fracture. If this happens, it could cause the power steering to fail, but manual control would be retained. There are no reported accidents or injuries from this problem. To fix things, dealers will replace the bolts and seal them. The next campaign covers 50,157 examples of the 2014 Focus, Edge, Escape, and Transit Connect, plus the Fiesta from 2014 and 2015. Of these, 45,505 are in the US, 4,618 in Canada, and 34 in Mexico. All of them exhibit a problem with the fuel pump where the nickel plating can cause the part to seize and the engine to stall, if this occurs. (All of which sounds like recent problems with Nissan and BMW models.) According to Ford, there is one allegation of an accident from this problem. Dealers will replace the fuel delivery module to fix the problem. Ford is also recalling 22,616 units of the 2015 Lincoln MKZ because when the headlights are on, the parking lamps are brighter than they are allowed to be. The light could affect the vision of other drivers. This campaign includes 21,435 of them in the US, 1,066 in Canada and 115 in Mexico. There are no accidents or injuries from the issue, but Ford is updating the software to dim the lights on these sedans. Finally, Ford has a safety campaign for 91 examples of the 2015 F-150 because an underbody heat shield might not be properly installed or not present at all, which can be a fire risk. There are no reports of any actual accidents or fires, though. The affected pickups will have the parts replaced or added, as necessary after a dealer inspection. To see the specific build dates for the models affected by each of these campaigns, you can read about them in the press release below.

Ford faces class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles without brake override systems
Fri, 29 Mar 2013A total of 20 Ford customers are suing the automaker in a class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles "vulnerable to unintended acceleration." According to Reuters, the suit names 30 models built between 2002 and 2010 with electronic throttle control systems but without a brake override system. Those include the 2004-2012 F-Series pickups and the 2005-2009 Lincoln Town Car. Adam Levitt, a partner with the law firm of Grant & Eisenhofer says the plaintiffs in the case want "to be compensated for their economic losses by having overpaid for cars that contained defects." Levitt contends that the plaintiffs would not have bought their vehicles or paid less for them had they known there was no brake override system in place.
Ford began installing brake override systems in its vehicles beginning in 2010. In response to the lawsuit, Ford has pointed to research by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that indicated that unintended acceleration is mostly caused by driver error, saying in a statement that, "NHTSA's work is far more scientific and trustworthy than work done by personal injury lawyers and their paid experts."
Belville et al v. Ford Motor Co. will be heard in US District Court in the Southern District of West Virginia.
