Hiall!After
much surfing the web a couple of years ago I found absolutely no information
on my new toy,the Lincoln LSC Special Edition so I started this website,Since
then much has happened,not only did I also start a mailing list for all
the other wayward LSCers that started getting in touch with me but Bill
Luke started the awesome Tech BBS for the Mark series with emphasis on
the MK7 and MK8.Since I started this site Ford in their infinite wisdom
killed off the last remaining midsize V8 rear wheel drive cars left in
America,the MK8 and the Tbird\Cougar.So if you want a new V8 rear drive
you either get a smaller Mustang\Camaro\TransAm or a big Towncar,,thats
it folks.We are literally down to 4 or 5 remaining V8 powered rear drive
cars made by American carmakers ,and they wonder why so many people buy
trucks or Bimmers and Benz.All of which are available with guess what?
Yup,,a V8 and rear drive.I wont even get into the S.tupid U.seless V.ehicle
discusion,soon enough the gas prices and insurance will go up and these
behemoths will be a dime a dozen at the junkyards.
Back to our great Hot Rod Lincolns,I am asking all those that have any
special insight either mechanically or otherwise to share it with me so
I can post it here for everyone..Ifyou have scanned photos of your car
send it to me with your info and I will be happy to post it. Breifly the
main facts on the Special Edition are 1.Made only in 1990,91 and 92.\\2.Available
only in Garnet Red,Black and Grey.Any other color is NOT factory,,If you
dont believe me go to your Ford\Lincoln parts man and research this.My
uncle did this and has copies of the original pamphlets.He has two gray
ones by the way.\\3.The center of the BBS type rims on the Special Edition
is only painted dark grey\black in the 91,92 models,the 90s have them natural
color.Personally I prefer black so eventually I will have mine painted
like the 91-92. Everything else on the car is the same as the normal LSC
of the same year,while there were a few available with special handling
mods desinged by Roush I havent been able to get any kind of proof and
the people at Roush say they cant remember one way or the other,and I lost
the magazine article from the early 90s that had the info,I need to spend
a day at the library going thru old car mags till I find it.Well I have
rambled enough,go thru my site tell me what you think at dont forget to
check out the excellent Tech bbs.
ENJOY, FRANK "HTRDLNCN" GONZALEZ |
