Its been two months since I said goodbye to my 89 MGM. On the same day however I found a 1994 Lincoln Town Car to replace him. I have some pretty decent pictures in my albums of both but I have to say this areo TC is a real peach of a find. The work done to it before I took over ownership is emmence and it seems as thought the previous owners took care of it too. It has 174,000 on it now and it had 171,000 when I boought it. It has been all over NC and a few trips to GA. The trips to GA went well even with a bad mass air flow sensor. I have a few plans for it, mostly cosmetic like the front header from a 1997 TC. This will make it look super sweet and custom since I will not be changing out the side view mirrors. I have the rear tail piece as well but I have to do a little cutting to make it fit right, not as easy of a conversion as the front header but it will be done. As far as the engine goes, its solid and does not leak oil, but the valve seals and guides are shot so I burn through about a quart of 15w40 every 1500 miles, the ratio isnt bad yet, so im gonna wait on pulling the heads. I know the seals can be changed with out removing the heads, but the guids cannot so I am going to wait and do a nice rebuild round next year sometime. Again I have pictures in my albums if you guys wanna comment. Larter mangs!
