Bought a 96 Toreador Red last week so that completes the set. Have a White 93, Portofino Blue 94, BoB 95, the 96, a Silvermist 97, and my Toreador Red 98 and they all run and drive. Can somebody cure this disease or am I stuck with it until the gf has me committed ? Thanx Bruce

I am currently parting out a 98 Base that had a dealer installed cloth top. Under the fabric is a screwed on fiberglass cover on the roof the fabric was glued to. After removing the fiberglass piece, low and behold lived a rear window whose rubber weatherstrip had not seen daylight since 1998...

Your mailbox is full. USPS says was delivered 1/10.2014 to University Ave. Tracking # 9114901159818132901320. Let me know. Thanx Bruce

I know how you people enjoy picture progress threads, so I figured I would give it a try. A customer of mine has a 97 LSC, Opalescent with a Light Graphite interior. He loves the car, but hated the interior color. He wanted an Ebony interior and asked me to find one and change it over for him. A...

Does anyone know where you can buy replacement boots for the upper control arm balljoints. I have 2 with good joints but the boots are torn. Thanx Bruce

I am working on a 97 that someone installed aftermarket HID's in that seem to work fine. The only problem is the check headlight message. They are wired through a relay from the battery and triggered by the l/h headlight harness in front of the core support. When trying to bypass the relay and...

Has anyone ever come up with a method to repair broken mounting tabs on the inside of a gen II door panel ? I have one with three broken tabs that some idiot must have tried to pry off instead of lift off. Thanx Bruce

How do I make my signature picture larger like most of the others ? I am ready for the slams so have fun with it but I am old so all this new fangled internet stuff is still mostly a mistory to me. Thanx Bruce

Here are some pictures I took yesterday at a local castle of 2 of my girls, maybe for the calendar. Do you think one might make good calendar material. The black one is my 97 and the red on is one of my 98s, my favorite. What do you think ? Thanx Bruce

Does anyone out there know if the parts from a 2000 ls steering column will work in a mk viii ? Mostly wondering about the potentiometer, looks the same. Thanx Bruce

I finally finished detailing under the hood of my 98 LSC. Cleaned, powdercoated, cleared and polished, whew! Think it looks pretty nice but will have to see how long it stays that way. Alot of work but I feel it was worth it. Have no idea why Lincoln never clearcoated under the hood, maybe the...

Thought you might enjoy seeing some pics of a customers car. It is a 51 Ford Business Coupe with, you guessed it, a 96 Mark VIII Cammer. Pretty car and goes like hell. What do you think ? Thanx Bruce

Just had a thought as I was playing with my a/c control. Owning a Mark VIII is a lot like dating a young pretty girl. Nice to look at and show off to your friends, fun to take for a ride, but boy are they high maintainance ! Thanx Bruce

Finally figured out how to make a gen II intake look like the rest of the car, I took and sandblasted a spare one and then attacked it with a wire wheel. Now it is off to the powdercoaters for a clearcoat and should look like the factory should have produced it. Will post pictures with the...

Just figured I would post a couple pictures from a beautiful New England weekend. Thanx Bruce

Has anybody found a product or a method to clean the exterior of the cast aluminum plenum ? I have seen some pretty ones on here so I am curious how they did it. Mine is powdery and just looks nasty compared to the rest of the engine compartment. This is for a gen II so any info would be...

On my 98 LSC the a/c works fine on max a/c. When I use the automatic setting the clutch cycles quickly and the engine runs rough at idle like it has a vacuum leak. Swapping it back to max a/c it smooths right out and clutch operates normal for hours no problem. Any thoughts where to go looking ...

My hat is off for John and Temple Performance. I installed his white face gauge kit in my 98 today and could not be more pleased. The quality was excellent, the install was easy and straight forward and they look and work great. It is a pleasure to buy a product online and have it exceed my...

Looking for a pass side cup holder arm for a gen II. Also need the ballbearings w/plastic cage for a steering column, and possibly a potentiometer if the price is right. Let me know. Thanx Bruce

After looking at Rock Auto`s website for frontend pieces I saw that they sell about 4 different brands. Anyone have a preference or information about the different brands they sell. The prices vary alot but I don`t want to be doing this job again soon. Thanx Bruce
