IIRC it was just the 2000 that had the hatch. Also check with Quik about the tow hook, because I think he's got one on his.

Mines a 2002 sport and it has a hatch, I see them around town all the time with the hatch missing.
Maybe its just v-8 sports or just the sport model in general. Who knows maybe Lincoln actually thought the sport model would be used in racing...:shifty:

I think is only gen I Sport have the tow hook hatch.
I live in the land, which is a real winter, poor streets and a lot of snow. LS is a good car! Better than a BMW or Volvo.
Only extra good winter tires and the car is a tank.
All gen 1 sports have the tow hook access panel. It was a requirement to meet European safety standards. That was when the LS was going to be exported to Europe.

well that is a feature that i love from all the euro cars, that sh!t needs to be on all LS's (well i guess they dont need to be on any of the cali LS's 
) but damn i wish i had one, it sucks living out in the country, my road is always the last to get plowed (usually 2-3 days after it snows) and you aint going no where when you can barely make it down the road with 3"-5" and then you come up on a 1.5' drift, at that point you cant turn around.
i just want to see where it screws into so i can try to add it to my car

My 2000 V8 Sport had the hatch, but the stupid thing was - when you needed to tow the car out of a drift, you forgot it was there and still hooked underneath the car somewhere!
Agree with the LS being a good snow car, just need good tires and they're great ON snow.

+1 i agree... summer tires for summer. Beastly Treaded Blizzaks for Winter and ur golden in this car. (unless ur lowered and hit some of them nasty ice chunks on the freeway)
