"1995 Lincoln Town Car Executive Series Sedan
""1990 was to initialize a sea change in the history of Ford powertrains. They had developed a modular 4.6 liter SOHC V8 which was scheduled to replace the 5.0 liter small block used in Town Cars, Mustangs and other Ford vehicles for nearly 30 years. But, as these things go, development was delayed and the 4.6 wasn't introduced until October of 1990, and implemented for 1991 models.
For consignment, a 1995 Lincoln Town Car Executive with a title verified 132,584 actual miles. While the target audience, as portrayed in the brochure, was of the mature set, the brochure is written in tiny font script that is nearly impossible to read, even for these middle aged eyes. That said, more than 100,000 Town Cars were sold in 1995 and here at Classic Auto Mall, nice examples almost never stay with us very long.
Exterior
Thirteen exterior colors were available in 1995, including this one, Performance White which covers all of the car including the bumper covers and rocker cladding, but certainly not the canvas covered hardtop. This was a trend from the late 80's which gave the appearance of a convertible, right down to the support rails. The navy blue top is picked up by blue pinstripe that runs the shoulder line of the car bisecting the keyed entry pad and the door handle and the side is also enhanced with chrome trim on the waist. Flush, composite headlights modernize the front of the car which retains its classic chrome grille and as with the rest of the car, it's more rounded than previous generations. In back, the horizontal reflectors connecting the tail lights create a regal and distinct profile. 15-inch mesh style wheels were also trending at the time and look great on the car although we note some curb rash on a few. The only other imperfection is some peeling chrome on a plastic bezel
Interior
Blue makes up the interior palette which contrasts nicely with the light exterior and starts on the door panels which have mixed materials including leather wrapped armrests, carpeted bottoms, and faux wood applique around switchgear. The split buckets front seats in blue leather represent the literal lap of luxury and have patina wrinkles, but are intact. The rear passengers will be comfortable too with high overstuffed cushions and a center hideaway armrest. The no nonsense steering wheel is leather wrapped wearing a strip of plastic burlwood which makes its way to the dashboard where it spans the width. Despite the obvious plastic construction, it does provide an air of luxury and warmth. The gauge cluster consists of a complete digital readout with the green digital font that was so groundbreaking at the time, and now is looked to with fond nostalgia. More importantly, all the digits seem to function properly and are not missing segments as is often the case. We note an aftermarket AM/FM/CD that is of more modern vintage and includes Bluetooth capability, backlit by a similar green light, just above the A/C panel in the blue lower dash. Light blue plush carpet is in good shape as is the headliner where front and rear dome lights function properly. The trunk is finished in a gray flannel material and is immaculate, housing a spare, a CD changer, and cargo net.
Drivetrain
The engine pay is clean and is home to the venerable 4.6 SOHC V8 rated at 205 horsepower. It's fuel injected and backed by a 4-speed automatic transmission sending power to the Ford 8.8"" in back. Power disc brakes are found front and rear.
Undercarriage
This well loved car exhibits driver quality conditions underneath with some typical surface rust and patina underneath but not bad considering the mileage, indicating this car spent a good amount of time in a garage. There's some oil build up on the rear differential, but the pans are relatively dry. That rear differential and the driveshaft hold most of the surface rust we see underneath, but nothing structural. Dual exhaust hits an H-pipe, then original mufflers which wear some rust on the edges, finally out to resonators and ending with steel pipes. Suspension consists of coil springs up front and a 4 link with airbags in back.
Drive-Ability
If there's one thing we like at the mall, its flagship vehicles for particular brands. They represent the best of the times and the ride quality of this 30 year old car does not disappoint. It really does ""ride a like a cloud"", soft, quiet, and comfortable with a proficient engine that's got more than enough grunt to move this cruiser around our test loop. The power brakes do their job and we float this big, beautiful blue ride back into the mall. The A/C display is intermittent but all other functions work as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
Town Cars have been called ""sleeper collectibles"" by those in the know and we don't disagree. The age of rear wheel drive, V8 powered luxury sedans is over and the further we get away from their heyday, the more desirable clean examples will become. But don't buy it on speculation, buy it because it's a quality automobile that you have fallen in love with!
