OVERVIEW

This two-owner 1988 Lincoln Town Car Cartier Designer Series luxury sedan was initially delivered to Gary Worth Lincoln in Gladstone, Oregon and has remained in the area its entire life.

Finished in Crystal Clearcoat Metallic and Dark Titanium and equipped with a Crystal Valino vinyl half-roof over a Titanium leather and cloth interior, this first-generation Town Car is now offered by the selling dealer with a window sticker, owner’s booklets, service records, a clean CARFAX report, and a clear title.

The dealer has performed an inspection. According to the CARFAX report, an oil change was performed at Meineke in 2020 fewer than 1,000 miles ago, the air conditioning system was recharged in 2016, and the drive belts, hoses, and radiator cap were serviced in 2014.

UNDERCARRIAGE

Stopping is provided by power brakes. Handling is assisted by a front stabilizer bar, gas-filled shock absorbers, and an automatic load-leveling system.

The CARFAX report begins in 1987, although the second record after that initial entry is an emissions inspection in 2003. Accident-free ownership is shown in Oregon since new. An emissions inspection was performed in 2021. A window sticker, service records, and owner’s booklets will come with the car.
