This is a 1995 Lincoln Town Car Executive in silver frost metallic with the light graphite interior. I am her third owner. I bought her in June of 2005 with 60,500 from the niece of a Tuskegee Airman who had past away. She has been updated with the complete OEM premium sound system, Signature/Cartier front armrests with storage. This past July, her navy blue cloth top was replaced with a grey metallic elk vinyl top. She has the OEM "Y" spoke wheels with Michelin Symmetry tires for summer driving and OEM Lace wheels with Cooper Weathermaster S/T2 tires for winter driving. She has OEM light graphite summer floor mats and OEM medium graphite winter floor mats. All regular maintainance is done to her as needed. She is (not) garaged.

This is my dad's 1988 Bahama Gold Acura Legend LS with the ivory interior. He bought the car as the second owner in 1995 with 54,140 miles on it. Presently it has 157,500 on it. This first generation Legend LS has been meticulously maintained. This Legend LS is an every day driver and she is always garage kept.
In 2008 she had professional body work done to both of her rear wheel quarter panel areas which involved spraying her from front to rear . First generation Legend owners know that these areas become a major concern down the road. Original paint is still on the trunk lid, roof and hood.
In 2008, all of the interior seats were were recovered with irovy leather. Sometime around 2002 OEM Acura black mats were added. The original ivory mats still exsist today and are in very good condition. All of the rest of the interior is all original!
The wheels in the video are Ultra Wheels that were added in 1999 with Toyo Spectrum tires. The original Acura wheels are used for the winter season.
In 2006 the air conditioning was coverted over to R-134A and the aftermarket radio was installed.
Over the years repairs have been done to her as they occured to keep her in proper running condition. Up to the present date, this 1988 Acura Legend LS has been shown nothing but respect during her 21 years.

This is our 1971 Ariens Sno-Thro with the 7HP Tecumseh. My father purchased her (brand new) in July of 1971 for $371.00 and she has been maintained every spring with the regular scheduled maintainance.
The parts that have been changed on her over the years are: maybe 3,4,5 or 6 sheer pins if that, 2 roll pins on the impeller, muffler, gas tank cap, scraper bar, rebuilt bucket skid shoes, a rebuilt head due to a spark plug situation, a new solid surface name plate with a modified older design chute turning assembly.
When snow is thrown, only a 3rd to 3/4's of the bucket is used, (never) a full sweep, except for the first pass. First gear is used for blowing, sometimes second gear in the right kind or amount of snow. Third gear is rarely used at all and forth gear is used for moving the machine and (never) used for snow throwing!
She has the original carburetor that has never been rebuilt or changed.
She is a fine machine that serves us very well.
(April of 2010)
She has had her impeller and the lower impeller area resprayed with three coats of Rust-O-Leum orange and clear coat. *(THIS WAS DONE FOR PROTECTION ONLY AND NOT FOR ANY RESTORATION PURPOSES)*
Almost after 40 years, the carburetor kit was added to the carburetor after a bogging down problem started to occur. The needle and clip, upper "O" ring, bowl gasket and power jet gasket were changed. The situation still occured until I cleaned the power jet holes and changed the "O" ring. The "O" ring was hard, slightly cracked and flat as a pancake. She now runs (excellent). I wanted to do a step by step procedure so that I could pin point the actual cause of this problem.
The original Goodyear studded tire was updated to the Carlilse X-Trac. Mainly for better traction at the driveway apron and street area for the packed snow left by the snow plows. They are smooth with no hop or bounce. I highly recommend this tire for all the Snow-Thro owners who are considering changing their tires. There is no reason to even consider using chains with this tire.
I am using Sea Foam and will start using 93 octane with 10% less ethanol.
