I bought the Lowest Mileage 1997 Lincoln Town Car in EXISTENCE! RUINED in MINUTES! ROAD TRIP

2,200 miles door to door! We went for two, but only came home with one. The prize of the two! Take a look at what I will claim as the lowest mileage 95-97 Town Car in existence! This would also qualify as the most expensive ‘97 Town Car I’ve ever bought, and it doesn’t even run! Minor detail 🤣

I'm a car guy and love all the beautiful heavies. More than that... you and your Dad's relationship. You're lucky to have each other. My Dad has been gone 6 years, give anything for another ride in the Fleetwood with him.

I feel you on that, William. My dad has been gone for 14 years now, and to take a ride with him in the Coupe dville would be great.

I think you were underselling the value on that Benz at $5000 all fixed up and running, that thing was NICE cosmetically. Those have come up in value a good bit the past few years for nice ones, miles don't really affect the value as much as condition/provenance(aka 1 owner who fixed stuff when it broke, shop records, etc).

I see you and Papa and It sincerely touches me. Your Dad, Your best friend, That's what it's all about. Time for me to get up there soon, Would love to meet you and Papa.

An friend passed from a long battle with cancer leaving a couple of low, low mileage TC's in his garage. It took a lot of work getting them back into to where they were safe to drive and sell. Letting them sit can be hard on them.

The rusty vehicle on the trailer y'all were asking about approximately 23 minutes into the video is an M3 Scout Car used by the United States Army - and our allies - during WWII predominantly. While fast & reliable, it was considered a disappointment to the Army brass due to its poor off-road performance & lack of overhead protection. At least with the US Army, it was largely phased out of service by 1943 by the six-wheeled M8 Greyhound but was still retained for rear-area security and convoy escort duty. It's biggest claim to fame was the fact that General Patton used one of these vehicles as his command vehicle (though it had added armor and a raised fighting compartment).

I could be wrong but if the color of that car came through on my phone correctly....that TC is actually Spruce Green. I know because I have a '98 Mercury Grand Marquis that same color. I know..I know....it looks gray. Open hood or trunk and look where there is no clearcoat. It will become more apparent. It is definitely green...maybe with a hint of gray. It is FoMoCo spec code 'FS' on the Ford Mftrng label on the door jam. At least that is the color it looked like to me. But a quick check of the door label will verify it. I love your videos and think it is great you are keeping these old full sized sedans on the road and in the hands of owners who appreciate them. Good work...keep it up.👍
