    I stumbled upon a Lincoln v12 engine this week..   not sure if anyone is looking to re-build or part-out the power plant.   I didnt get a price, it has been sitting for 20+ years but looked largely complete.   If you have any interest, let me know and i will connect you with the owner.   Serious inquiry only please - the "owner" is really a trustee trying to settle the estate for a family.   Thanks

     

  2. I am in the process of sandblasting and stripping the car
    One question that I am getting conflicting answers about
    Should I remove the old lead and see whats underneath? 
    That would mean I would be replacing it with plastic

    Hi very nice car, I would only suggest that our 12 cyl Lincolns which are severely under valued, and the safe way to preserve investment is either

    100 point restoration, or big money hot rod----Your car was beautiful when you started, and then this picture of a silver painted 

    engine with wrong heads will stick out like a sore thumb. (its your car and none of my business). The attraction of this automobile is 

    style and status and the 12 cyl gleaming engine. (in my opinion). 

    ---Get some correct green paint, get some polished aluminum heads now while engine is out..or at least paint engine green,

    heads can be fake aluminum....

    what a picture!!
    Actually I plan on painting the engine green since I already have the paint-

    Please don't take this as criticism but I can't help but ask why you took it apart? I know to restore but it looks like a great car to begin with.

    Maybe I've just never been lucky enough to start with anything that looks that good.

    the car was a 10 footer
    This was my dads all time favorite Lincoln so I am doing it in his honor 
    I am leaving the body on the frame but dropping the suspension

  5. Thanks in advance
    I need to replace my rear trans seal and spacer
    My question is, do I need to split the overdrive from the main drive gear to remove these? any special tools?
    My rear is leaking as well-what is the trick to removing the drive shaft from the car? Any special tools?
    thanks 
    Steve
