1980 Lincoln Mark VIUp for sale is a 1980 Lincoln Mark VI with the rare combination of 4 doors and the larger 351 windsor engine. Black exterior and burgundy interior. The car runs great. The Lincoln has an interesting back story. The original owner worked for a carpet company that offered a brand new Lincoln Mark VI to the top carpet salesman that year. The owner was top salesman and went to the Lincoln dealership and picked out the most expensive Mark VI model on the dealer lot, which is this Lincoln. I also have all the interesting Lincoln dealership materials that came with the car, such as the ordering book with samples of all the interior options. The original owner owned the car from 1980 until 2014 when he passed away. I bought the car from his grandson. The original owner never drove the car in the snow and always had the car serviced at the dealership. Since 2014, I have kept the car in a climate controlled indoor garage and have driven it once a week to keep it in good working condition. The car has the following features: - 5.8L 351 cubic inch V8 windsor carbureted engine (this engine was only an option on the 1980 Lincoln Mark VI and is much more powerful than than the more common 4.9L 302 cubic inch engine in most Mark VIs)- Power locks and windows, keyless entry, automatic sun roof, original 8 track player and radio, air conditioning, cruise control, CB radio.- Since owning this Lincoln, I have slowly been performing preventative maintenance to keep it in good working condition. The oil was changed with synthetic oil approximately 50 miles ago. I put in a brand new air filter and fuel filter last week. I put in a brand new battery about 3 weeks ago. I have a brand new distributor cap, distributor cap rotor, spark plug wires and spark plugs that I will be installing this week. One of the center caps is missing, but I have a spare center cap that I will also be installing this week.- The car has been maintained very well over the years, but does have usual wear as is expected from a 35 year old car so its by no means a museum car. There are a few tiny dings and some light surface scratches in a few spots. The passenger side door lock actuator isn't working well and must be unlocked manually. The radio has a bit of static when its first turned on (I'm working on fixing this and it may be a loose speaker wire). Please see pictures for more details on condition. All bidders are encouraged and welcome to inspect the car personally. Feel free to email me with any questions.- The Lincoln comes with a variety of Lincoln dealership materials such as the ordering book with car interior samples, etc.- The actual mileage of the car is approximately 82,xxx (which will go up some as I drive the car once a week to keep it in good condition). The odometer in the car reads 15,xxx right now. The reason for the discrepancy is that the instrument cluster went bad in 2007 and was replaced at the Lincoln dealership with a used odometer (since there were no new ones available by that time). I have the paperwork from the dealership showing that the instrument cluster was replaced with a used instrument cluster in 2007 when the car had 66,xxx miles on it at that time. (I believe they must have reset the odometer in the instrument cluster at that time to 0). I also have a written document from the prior owner stating that he put roughly 10,000 miles on the car from 2007-2014. I have put around 5,000 miles in two years or so since I've owned it, which lines up with the current odometer reading of 15,xxx (which is why I believe the used odometer that was installed was likely reset to 0...not sure why they didn't set it to the same mileage as the old odometer...maybe it was just easier to reset it to 0). Please don't hesitate to email me with any questions! Thanks!
