    I like the two tone. Is that factory paint scheme or after the fact?

            Update I thought I was going to have time this weekend to work on the coupe, but opened a can of worms working on my boat.

            I settled for not finding a sunroof for a town coupe, but with the 1'' shorter roof and the sunroof taking an inch also I have no headroom, I have this problem with my Mark 6.

            It is the factory paint. I had a 86 town car in the early 90's with about the same color scheme.

            The car needs a headliner, And I am going to change the bumpers, because the front is missing a piece of molding and the rear has a 5th wheel on it, and the bumpers are the only part of the car that have rust on them also.

            More will come.

              someone put a continental kit on it? Blech. I've never seen one of those on any car that didn't come with it from the factory that I didn't think looked terribly stupid.

                  Fixed the power antenna today, and replaced it with one I had. The picture shows on the left the one from the car, the one I replaced it with is in the middle, and the one on the right is the newer style which has a different plug. I had to switch over the top piece which bolted right on the shaft.

                    That is how you're supposed to jack it.

                    Up and down.

                        I also hate the conti bumper thing. Tackier than Elmer's glue.

                          Dear Panthers,

                          Leave the continental kit. It's not a shy&modest car.

                            Yeah, not a fan of the continental kit. Although it does make a statement; pimpin' IS easy. Otherwise, I love that car.

                              Like Thain said, if it wasn't in the original design it just looks tacky. Doubt there's a tire in there anyway. Love the car though. I'd like to see pics of the interior and that funky CFI!
