Model: Lincoln Mark VII LSC Year: 1992 Mileage: 103,934 Tax: 6 months MOT: 12 months Location: North Staffordshire Price: dropped to £2000 Firm. Additional Information: Lincoln LSC (Luxury Sport Coupe) Mark VII. These are built on the same Ford 'Fox platform' as the Mustang of the same era. Basically a Mustang in a posh frock. So not too large to handle/park etc over here. 5.0 HO 225 bhp V8, masses of torque. AOD (automatic overdrive) gearbox, superb motorway car (110mph is acheived at just 3,000 rpm). The original troublesome air suspension has been removed and car now rides on new uprated Mustang GT coil springs. Front struts are also new. Professional LPG Autogas conversion. Returns between 16-20 MPG on gas at 52p per litre, do the maths, it's cheaper to run than a family hack! LPG system recently serviced (has installation certificate). Professional custom stainless steel dual exhaust system, complete front to back, sounds lovely but not noisy. All 4 (!) catalytic convertors removed in the process. engine and gearbox are as new. Any inspection is fine, this is a very genuine car with nothing to hide. Never been welded. Mint underneath and fully rust treated. Never been repainted, although the light grey around the lower part could do with re-doing now. Just 1 area of rust on the car by front arch, see photo. wheels/tyres all good. Fast & economical. Power steering, power windows, power tilt/slide glass Moonroof, Power trunk release, power gas flap, power trunk pulldown, power locks, power multi-way seats, keyless pushbutton entry, Leather interior is mint with no wear. Passenger door window motor needs replacing, power lock sticks on that door and mirror glass is broken. I have all parts and they are included ready to fit. ![](http://www.uselessincorporated.com/4//UploadedImages/retrorides_5d495ae3-f45a-4827-9ff0-1b420352cd1d_1.jpg) ![](http://www.uselessincorporated.com/4//UploadedImages/retrorides_5d495ae3-f45a-4827-9ff0-1b420352cd1d_2.jpg) ![](http://www.uselessincorporated.com/4//UploadedImages/retrorides_5d495ae3-f45a-4827-9ff0-1b420352cd1d_3.jpg) ![](http://www.uselessincorporated.com/4//UploadedImages/retrorides_5d495ae3-f45a-4827-9ff0-1b420352cd1d_4.jpg)

These are nice motors and they have the same engine as the fox body mustang and can be tuned the same way and make nice street/strip cars. You could have this running 13 second passes and drive it to work every day ;D Do a google search and see what they do to them in the states.....and then buy it, tune it and thrash a scoobie ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

that's a cracker and a great price for an LPG converted V8. These big yanks are wonderful motorway eaters - timing wrong for me or I would have it tomorrow - I've just cleared out the stable and replaced it with 3 different ones and now have no spare cash. good luck though

Thanks for the kind words chaps. As for being Motorway eaters, a mere 3,000 rpm is recorded at 110mph...

Hey Martin, update the thread title with the price drop, May make more people take a peek.
That cars so manly, it makes my big fat turbo Volvo look like a pink "powered by fairydust" Cinqucento.

Good idea, have done so. The price drop is due to the LPG system occasionally playing up.
