    Quick refresh of an aging Lincoln

    So my 94 TC was starting to show its age. I figured the best way to give it a $20 makeover was a quick shot of paint. I proudly present what I believe to be one of the first murdered-out Town Cars on the site. I give you: The Mistress.

    Nice! Did you just black out the grille, bumpers, and trim?

        I've never been a huge fan of the '90-94 TC body style, but man that looks sweet! Very factory-looking, reminiscent of the Mark VII LSC SE.

          Looks great!

          Just a subtle, inexpensive change can give a car a whole new personality.

              We're going for a ride, out to the country. Get in....the trunk.


              Looks like a mafia car. I like it.
              1990 MGM: $50 E7 heads, HO cam, Holley SysteMAX lower intake, HO upper intake with an Explorer TB. LSC ECM. Lincoln logs into stock dual exhaust. K&N drop in air filter. Wide ratio AOD, 2400 converter with a 3.08 one tire fire out back. Car is less slow now. Then there's the '92 Beater. Dual 2.25" exhaust with shiny tips. Rumbles nice. Super slow. Burns oil too.

                  No, the mirrors and chrome door handle surrounds are going to stay chrome; a subtle nod to the Audi S cars that I adore in secret.

                    I like it!

                    In the past I owned a '94 and a '97 LTC. I always preferred the '90-'94 styling over the late ones. (I dig the larger head lights.)
