78 Lincoln Town Car - One of the best cars I ever owned

[TimU2Cool]

I used to have this exact car.What a gas hog.But,it was the greatest car.big boat

[consuetudinariness]

Gas-guzzler.  Enjoy paying for it. LOL!

[TraustiGeir]

@consuetudinariness Those who do are happy to. You don't buy a car like this for a quick trip to the corner-store.

[consuetudinariness]

@TraustiGeir I agree, but we are in the 21st century right now, not when calendars were invented!

[TraustiGeir]

@consuetudinariness I owned an '02 Volvo S40 and traded it in for a '94 Audi S4. Care to ask why?

[consuetudinariness]

@TraustiGeir Yeah. Let me know. I own a 1994 Buick Regal myself.

[TraustiGeir]

@consuetudinariness How is it?

[consuetudinariness]

@TraustiGeir My Regal was a pretty luxurious car for its time. Overall, I am satisfied with it. I just bought it for $1000. It gets up to 29 miles per gallon on the highway, which is fantastic for a 3.8-liter engine with 6 cylinders. It consumes too much gas in the city, though. It is more powerful than KIAs, most of which are not as fuel-efficient as my car. So, I do not intend to sell it. How is your car? I think Volvos do not have long-lasting engines. Mine has about 132,000 miles.

[TraustiGeir]

@consuetudinariness I forgot to change the oil one time and the engine was indeed not happy about that. But the Audi is such an attention-seeker (for me anyways) that I can't stop pampering it. It's got around 122.000 miles on it, the clutch is a bit stiff and you have to turn the A/C off when driving through a tunnel or dust. But it checked all the boxes on my wish-list: Black, powerful, sunroof, German, leather, electronic-comforts, stick-shift, etc.

[TimU2Cool]

I used to won this car.Wow! wish I never sold it.a true classic.

[babydollrollin22s]

[GrosvenorAudio]

wow! can you please make a video of that car and post it here... that would be something to see!

[Declipse16]

BEAUTIFUL! That thing looks so good! I'd LOVE to drive that exact one!

[Hillbillyinstincts]

Reread my earlier comment. Mine has 32 K on it. My Collector Series had 34K.

[Hillbillyinstincts]

Have a 79 Town Car now with 34K actual miles now. I am the 2nd owner. Work at the dealer that sold it new. Sold my 79 Collector series & paid off my house. Had another 78 & 79. Work as a Ford tech. Love the oldies.

[tadeh3]

[theOlLineRebel]

Wow - my dad used to get that exact comment from his co-workers when he drove The Black to work!

[anhacus]

[mrbrandon71]

@anhacus roflmao!

[sentra500]

Coo-coo-cachoo  Lulu !!

[hottrodscars]

I am still driving my 1977 Olds Delta 2 dr., I bought it for $225 in 1998. I also have a 1977 Lincoln Town Coupe I recently restored. These new cars are just over-priced junk. Too expensive to maintain, whatever you save in gas mileage you lose in repairs. - - hottrodscars

[giberish9]

Mine was also a 2dr. What size engine does yours have? Mine only had a chevy 350 with 104,000 miles(I think)

[hottrodscars]

The '77 Olds has a Chevy 305 in it; the '77 Lincoln has a 460 cu. inch; I have a number of pre-pollution Olds motors in my shop, stored, someday will put an Olds 400 or 425 in it. The 305 right now runs too good to change.

[giberish9]

Mine ran great too. Even with a 1/2 tank of 4year old gas, it always started on the first turn of the key.

[coldplays179]

id beg to differ, my 78 towncar which was loved by an old man with 102k has had a master cylinder + alt failure

carb performance sucks+ lots of electrical demons

new cars are easier to maintain in my books

[volvomantom]

"new cars are easier to maintain in my books"

Really? No shit?

[giberish9]

It that oldsmobile a '77?

[TMAXXPUNISHER]

78' delta 88. The motor blew on me. Went to the junk yard shortly after this vid was taken. It was also a really great car, had balls and was comfortable!

[giberish9]

I had a 1977 delta 88. The previous owner had died(natural causes) and her daughter gave me the car for free. It sat in the garage for 4 years. After I put in a new battery and poured alittle gas down the carb it fired right up and ran smooth. I regret ever selling that car. I haven't been able to find a 77-79 in my area ever since.

[liam420stoner]

i almost shit my pants when i saw this i have a 83 delta an im lookin at gettin one of these fuckin deadly licolns its also fuckin mint

[lucasorcorey]

@TMAXXPUNISHER instead of junking it you should of sold all the good parts

[anhacus]

Dear Mr. Punisher, I love Town cars, too. I've owned three of them. I am saddened that Ford is planning to discontinue the model. I think they're making a big mistake.
