new lincoln mark viii owner

[drtaylor101]

this is the lincoln that my boss gave to me as a bonus while everyone else got cash. it doesn't run, the air ride is shot and one mice have lived in it for several years. i don't know what i'm going to do with it in the long run but for now i'm going to see if i can get it to run and move.

Welcome to lvc. Could end up being a nice bonus, with a little work. Hopefully the fuel system isn't too varnished up.

you live close to a junk yard?

Welcome! Throw a battery in to it and we will go from there.

put a full charged battery in, air ride inflated. got it off the trailer and tomorrow i'm taking the tank down tomorrow and checking whats inside it. if its clean i'm putting a new fuel filtwer on and putting gas in it. if it's crank i'm going to change the oil and filter. the interior was covered in mouse droppings and it still smells horrible, after vacuuming it all up, so if its road worthy i'm going to do some serious shampooing.
and no i don't live near any good junk yards
and thanks for the welcome!
