Hey y'all... I searched on this problem but found nothing. Every once in a while the car will slam-shift into all gears..."WhAm!" It doesn't happen often at all, but it's harsh when it does. I'm guessing it's something electrical or sensor related because if I turn the car off...

The 347 build is nearly complete! :) All that is left is a "BMW Silver"/Clearcoat paint for the opened-ported upper Cobra intake. I will also post the CFM of this experimental intake. It should be very interesting! :) You can see how much metal was ground away(right), vs. the stock...

Hope all's well! I know, I haven't posted here for a long while... Here's the latest, Mark VII - SVO light test video. All LED running/turn signals with the NEW backup, LED flashers. http://www.parodycentral.net/MarkVIISVO/Video/LED Seq 01a.wmv Give it moment to load...

The whole car came out great! But I'm concerned with some minor orange peel. Here's a pic of my trunk lid, which is the worst. My '03 Caddy is about the same, but I wanted no orange peel :( The guy who did the work has been in the biz for 35 years. I saw a Black vet he was sanding on...

This sucked at the time, but I'm laughing now... I just got the '91 back from the paint shop... custom paint work with the Twilight Blue metalic is absolutely beautiful! Anyway, I'm putting in my new door lock and window motors, since the panels are off. And I'm testing the lock motors...

I bought a brand new front parking light unit. But intsead of the white plastic that's chromed on the inside, it's grey plastic without chroming. :eek: What's all this about? Is it another one of those damned '92 year model cost cutters? It must be. I also heard that the '92 rear...

I experienced this on my old 85 as well. Anyone else ever experience this? When brakes are applied with more stopping power than a mild braking, my right front rotor makes a slight scraping noise as if something rubs upon more exertion. I've looked it over and can find nothing that...

Well, y'all know of my love for LED's. lol. :) Just finished!.. Here's the latest custom mod for my Mark VII... An LED Oil Pressure gauge. This was a frustrating and tedious gig. :eek: But I love the result! Here's some pics.

Howdy guys... transfering more stuff from the '85. This newer '91 wasn't ordered with the auto adjusting rear view mirror so there's no visable wire plug hanging for it, although it does have that sensor there and the plug for that. Does anyone know if I might find the extra wires/plug...

What the hell?!! Since transferring all of my mods from my old '85 Mark... I noticed my rear brakes sqwaking at crawl speed sometimes. Krikey...sounded like a cheap car horn! They changed the rear disc caliper design in my newer '91 Mark!! WTF? The '91 rubber Piston boot is paper thin...

Saw this and read the hard-to-find facts about it. Wow... Only 297 made. Looks like this is one of them that OldSchool has on his website with a "?" buy the year. Now we know it's a '91. Break open those piggy banks! This one will cost ya... ;)...

This has been 7 months in design and construction ... finally complete. :Beer The first pic is parking/running lights. Second is brake/turn signal lights. Only Brake is shown. LED's give a more brillaint, instant signal and catch the eye's attention faster than incandecent bulbs. I...

Okay y'all... Here's an edited recording I did a while back. (Start-up, rev, pull out, drive off.) This is with an Auto tranny, off-road H Pipe (no cats), BBK's shorty headers, 2 1/2" pipes & Flowmaster 40's. Basically, it sounds like a mustang with the same set up and it's fun to turn...

There are a lot of power mods for Lincolns... Does anyone have some good power adder info to list for the '00 - '05 DeVilles? I love this car and the way this Northstar can really scream! I'm just curious if there's anything else to be done, tricks or parts to be purchased to get more out...

I ordered a reverse glow gauge face from an e-bay dealer who bragged it was for 86-92. It looked like a great effect. But when I got it, it was only for an older 90 MPH gauge-face. I informed the seller of the error and asked if he had one for the 120MPH speedo for exange. After 3 weeks of...

Working between the Florida rain :Bang , I transfered the Turbo Coupe suspension and figured I'd transfer the exhaust as well... however... My newer Mark is a '91 and I noticed that the H-pipe is offset to cat-backs much differently than the older Marks or 'Stangs. So now I guess I'll...

To replace my stock LSC seats that are cracked, torn, worn and uncomfortable. They came out of an 87 Turbo Coupe, apparently well cared for until wrecked. Supposedly some of the most comfortable sport seats Ford made. Had em on my 83 stang. These T-bird units have power lumbar with the...

In my 91 Mark, I've got that monster black JBL factory amp. Some punk-ass kid at Circuit City was trying to tell me, "it's not much, maybe 14 watts per speaker" I think he's full of Sh*t. I wanna go back and tell him to piss off. DAmned youngsters. argue2 Does anyone know how many...

I came accross these over the years...

I'm getting ready for paint but need this top off for the mod. I know that there are screws that penetrate the metal for the chrome strap around the back of it, and I'll want to weld these up. But before I dig in, is there any crucial info that might come in handy for this job. (I think...
