Re: 1978 Lincoln Continental Coupe

The buyer on the Lincoln forum arrived Tue AM. We had a briefly spirited test drive and stop at the credit union to get the title notarized and home to peruse all my Lincoln files and the TS.org project thread. Buyer has a COMPLETE history of my time with it. Was fun reminiscing all the challenges a...

Re: 1981 corvette

Have you done a compression or leak down test? The video sounds like it's missing on a cyl or two.

Re: 1978 Lincoln Continental Coupe

Mail Alert

I LOVE this product. Our mailbox is about 150' from the house. The receiver is mounted inside one wall on the front of the house. The alert works flawlessly!!

Three good friends have survived it, one was hospitalized in ICU and had severe symptoms when released. We MAY have lost one woman in the US to the ...
