1988 Lincoln Town Car 5-speed $2000 - NMNA

"selling my 88 Lincoln Town Car it has a 5.0 like the Mustangs have and a custom 5 speed manual transmission car needs a tune-up and has tinted windows would make a great sleeper asking $2000 or best offer contact Sean at show contact info won't find another Lincoln with a stick shift in it I guarantee"

I call BS on the "won't find another Lincoln with a stick shift" part (Ahem, Lincoln LS) but it has some potential.

Would that have the 5.0 HO engine "like the Mustangs have" ?

How many cars for sale "just needs a tune-up?"

This car was listed on the D.C Craigslist back in January for a few weeks. I E-mailed the seller and he said the car was gone, so this car still "just needs a tune up" I am going to guess this car might have some internal engine issue and buyer number two wants to bailout.

I wonder if it's the non-HO 302 and he has it set up with the HO firing order. Or vice-versa. Stupid Ford.

Well i know were theres a crown vic in the same bodystyle with a 351/t5 combo swapped in. Guess thats close enough to a lincoln.

Say what the 5.0 has two different firing order for the same engine?

Yes, Ford, as usual, had to make their engine lineup as confusing as possible. The 302 H.O. had a firing order of 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 and the non-H.O. had 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8

I've seen this car all over the MD and DC Craigslist for months now, at prices as low as $1200.

Reaaaaaly

problem is he's got the upper intake on backwards.
