1983 Lincoln Mark Series Mark VI Description

1983 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL MARK VI - LOW MILEAGE, SW DESERT HISTORY, GORGEOUS RARE COLOR, PERFORMS NEW. NO RESERVE!

WE ARE PLEASED TO PRESENT FOR YOUR KIND CONSIDERATION AN EXTREMELY WELL KEPT LAST YEAR EXAMPLE FROM THE LINCOLN MARK VI SERIES. LUSCIOUS LIGHT FRENCH VANILLA EXTERIOR IS COMPLIMENTED WITH COLOR COORDINATED SPLIT BENCH PILLOWED LEATHER INTERIOR. HEADLINER, DOOR PANELS, DASH AND CARPETING ARE EXCELLENT.

INCLUDED IN PIX ARE PERTINENT PAGES FROM CARFAX WHICH DOCUMENT THE EXTRAORDINARY ATTENTION GIVEN BY PREVIOUS OWNER. CHRONOLOGICALLY SUMMARIZED ARE SOME OF THE MORE RECENT INSTANCES:

06/28/11 - 68,072 MILES: COOLING FAN CLUTCH, THERMOSTAT, AND RADIATOR REPLACED
03/18/13 - 70,000 MILES: VALVE COVER GASKETS REPLACED, FULL SERVICE
12/09/16 - 71,251 MILES: POWER STEERING PUMP, P/S HOSES, RADIATOR HOSE, SPARK PLUGS REPLACED, A/C REFRIGERANT RE-CHARGED, FULL SERVICE
04/28/17 - 71,376 MILES: BATTERY REPLACED
11/10/17 - 71,453 MILES: FUEL PUMP, FUEL FILTER REPLACED

THE CAR PRESENTLY HAS 71,630 MILES. SINCE ACQUIRING IT A FEW MONTHS AGO, WE HAVE REPLACED THE HOOD SHOCKS, TRUNK SHOCKS, REAR SPRINGS, AND FRONT CAR SHOCKS, WHICH HAD LOST THEIR STIFFNESS. RIDE IS SILKY SMOOTH AND THE CAR NEGOTIATES THE MANY SPEED BUMPS IN OUR COMMUNITY WITH EASE. THE MATCHED SET OF HANCOOK H714 RADIALS LOOK NEW BUT WE HAVE NO RECORD OF THEIR INSTALLATION TO DETERMINE LONGEVITY. THE ORIGINAL CHROME WIRE WHEEL COVERS ALL HAVE FACTORY LOCKS AND THE KEY IS IN GLOVE BOX.
SHORTCOMINGS:

THE ORIGINAL CABRIOLET VINYL TOP IS WEAK AND IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. I WOULD PERSONALLY PREFER USING A CONTRASTING COLOR WHEN SO DOING BUT TO EACH HIS OWN. SHOULD A FOREIGN BUYER (OR ANYONE ELSE) WANT TO HAVE THIS DONE PRIOR TO SHIPMENT, I HAVE A QUOTE FROM REPUTABLE SHOP HERE OF $650
RF PARKING LIGHT LENS IS MISSING
TRUNK BADGE ON PASSENGER SIDE IS MISSING ("MARKVI") IN PIX BUT AN OEM REPLACEMENT HAS BEEN INSTALLED AS OF THURSDAY JULY 5
POWER DOOR LOCKS INOP BUT MANUAL LOCKING FUNCTIONS WELL (HAVE NOT HAD THE ISSUE TROUBLESHOT)

IN CONCLUSION, THERE IS LITTLE LEFT TO DO TO HAVE AN INCREDIBLE EXAMPLE OF THE LAST COLLECTIBLE MARK SERIES. THE FACT THAT MECHANICS ARE SUPERB (STARTS UP IMMEDIATELY, RUNS REALLY SMOOTH AND QUIET, AND HAS ICY COLD A/C) MAKES ADDRESSING THE SHORTCOMINGS WELL WORTHWHILE. SOMEONE WHO SHARES THAT CONCLUSION WILL BE A PLEASED NEW OWNER. AUCTION IS NO RESERVE WITH A MODEST STARTING BID FOR FRACTION OF VALUE AND A BUY IT NOW OPPORTUNITY AS WELL.THE SUCCESSFUL BIDDER MAY ANTICIPATE OUR COOPERATION WITH DELIVERY TO SHIPPING AGENT, INCLUDING THE PORT IN LOS ANGELES, IF NEEDED. SHORT TERM STORAGE PROVIDED WITH COMPLIMENTS. YOU MAY CHECK OUR 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK FOR ASSURANCE AS TO AUTHENTICITY AND CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. HAPPY MOTORING!
