Hello all,

Back in March, I posted about air ride issues with my Mark VIII. My husband is no longer in the picture to help me fix it, and I would like to sell it.

I have never sold a car on my own; how does one come up with a reasonable price? It's a red 1998 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC with just over 100K miles. It has an aftermarket 12-disk CD player, four new tires, a new battery, new ball joints, and the upper control arms have been replaced.

I wanted to get the AVS16 and AVS17 springs that NoLimit95 suggested and have the car running like new again, but my husband said no, he wanted the air shocks. It pains me to have to sell the car, but I cannot afford to fix it now.

Any suggestions on how to get started with selling the car? :)

Start by taking 3-4 pictures of the car. Post it on craigslist.com in your local area. If the paint is really good, the interior is good & fully functional & the motor & transmission are good then the car is worth close to $3,000. Again, assuming everything is working as it should minus the front air ride!
 
re; Craigslist...watch your back, don't meet anyone from there by yourself
 
If your ex is out of the picture how about having the springs put in car cheaply? If its your car do as you please.
 
Only 3g's? My dads selling his 95. He's looking for 6k, got a bunch of local people itching to buy it too.
 
There's a bunch of people with fleas, and too much money
 
Lol its got 91k. Mint inside and out. 3k is like a slap in the face. Idc if everyone thinks these cars aren't worth ****, 6k for this 95 isn't outrageous
 
I'm no longer interested in the car; I'd rather sell it to a Lincoln enthusiast. There is a co-worker who is interested, but because the car has been sitting for so long, it doesn't start. Should I charge the battery and start the car on occasion until it is sold?
