Vehicle Details

Up for bid on this “No Reserve” auction is a 1983 Lincoln Mark VI. You are buying with the piece of mind knowing your purchasing from a family owned car dealership that my brother and own. Wally Armour Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram located in Alliance Ohio. We’ve been in business since 1981. My brother asked me to list this car along with several others from our personal collection, so be sure to look at my other listings, all will be No reserve auctions. Test drives and inspections before making your final bid are welcome. The pictures have been taken within a few short days of listing on EBay and I have not modified any pictures.

What can I say about this car? Well just know, she is absolutely ready to drive. We bought this car April 8th of 2020. The only reason we are selling this car and a few others is because I recently retired and sold my home that had ample storage for many vehicles. We simply can not have this many cars and keep them all under roof.

I’ve been racking my head trying to find out what you should know before you buy. To be candid, the only things the next owner would probably want to address is the Air conditioning, it does not blow cold, we’ve charged the AC in the past few summers and it blows cold but after being stored all winter it blows warm. I did not charge AC this summer just so I am not miss representing the quality of this car. The car has a few minor chips or dings which i took pictures of along with the headlight doors have there typical chips, I’m sure the lack of aerodynamics is the cause of this. When we first got the car it had 18,498 original miles, now it has 19,542 miles. When we first got the car we changed the oil and did our usual safety inspection the brake pressure light was on and discovered the rear wheel cylinders were leaking so we replaced them along with the left front caliper leaking and we replaced that as well. The brakes work great and the light has never returned. We also noticed the speedometer needle jumping a bit and speedometer was not working, so we replaced the speedometer cable. I know what your thinking? Is the miles truly 19000 mile original car? All I can tell you is to let the condition and cleanliness of this car tell its story. I also discovered later on that the gas gauge didn’t work. Take a guess how I figured that out. W replced fuel pump, now the gas gauge works but like any old car I don’t like driving anywhere near empty so I don’t have to figure out the wrong way. Somewhere along our ownership of car I noticed the power antenna wasn’t working so I took it to our local stereo shop and the replaced the antenna and while it was there I had them install a blue toothe hands free kit so I could play my favorites. Oh and did I tell you this car has the premium sound system and yes it works, super cool. I would have replaced the speakers if they were bad but the stereo shop said they were fine so I left them alone and it sounds great. Normally if it were up to me I would put a kick but system in but that premium sound button worked and I just think it’s really neat. In order to get the Bluetooth to work all you do is turn radio station to 98.1 the just below the radio area under dash is a small button, you hit that button, turn on Bluetooth on your phone and your jammin. We also replaced the headliner, at the time covid was still an issue and getting a red headliner was not available so we chose black. We did not do the head rests but the next ower will or may want to address the sagging fabric on the sun visors. I took pictures so you could see. Oh and there’s a small rubber tip that is missing on one see pictures. I almost forgot, one wheel is missing that little center cap, havn’t really investigated that.

Other than what I explained earlier everything works just fine. The power seats, windows, power locks work even the power mirrors and power antenna work. The car is ready to drive, its such a fun car to drive. The way the car leans on a turn and how it floats over the tracks and don’t forget the premium sound and those little vent windows.

It’s been a while since listing on EBay so I anticipate making minor amendments or adding additional information, I guess I’m simply preparing for questions and as I do I will try to add info to listing so I don’t have to answer multiple questions an similar subjects.
