    nice winter day of zeffering in thawing cornfield county, oHIo
  3. MODERN STUFF IS COOL....BUT A ZEPHYR RUNNING ON 12 SEPERATES THE MEN FROM THE BOYS IN THE LINCOLN WORLD...THERE IS A FEEL / CHARM TO DRIVING THE FLATHEAD MACHINE...U LOSE THAT AS ANOTHER OHV POWERED THING.. HOT ROD A FORD OR A CHEVY..NOT A PACKARD OR LINCOLN. KINDA LIKE PAINTING A HARDWOOD ANTIQUE TABLE GREEN! BUT...VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE.. HAVE FUN IS THE MAIN THING!! CHEERS
  4. I LIKE TO RAG ON HOT RODDERS.. BE IT A ZEPHYR ..A PACKARD OR EVEN A BUICK....BUT... THIS DAY AND AGE OF CODDINGTONS AND ORANGE COUNTY GREASEBALLS AND INSTANT HOT ROD TV....THIS IS THE RAGE FOR MUCH OF THE INVESTING PUBLIC. THE FEWER "GOOD" CARS OR GREATER NUMBER OF RUINED CARS WILL JUST ADD TO THE GLORY / VALUE OF ALL.. I HOPE.. SUPPLY AND DEMAND FELLAS. SOME FOLKS WILL PAY THOUSANDS FOR A 36 ZENITH CONSOLE RADIO.. LET ALONE 100000 FOR CAPIZZI'S LINCOLNS OR 1/4 MIL FOR A SCRAPE, MY HUMBLE 40 WILL NOT COMMAND BIG DOLLARS WITHOUT INVESTING BIG DOLLARS... IT IS ALL RELATIVE.
  5. IT IS DUE TO THE PASSION OF US CAR FOLKS NOTHING TO TAKE LIGHTLY OR SO WE THINK!! REMEMBER THE OLD DAYS HEMMINGS HAD 2 LISTINGS FORDS/NON FORDS...

  20. I am not directing any comment to u Mr Peterson..just the "tow it caus it's old" crowd..... I think many or our machine to be more roadworthy than in their declining years of eveyday use...yet many spend more time on trailers....bugs me..sorry..I think it dumb to have an old car that cant be used ...but who am I?? cheers
  21. yea u tell 'em Phil If i go to a show, I pull in and tell them I want to park with the other 12 cylinder cars.... or with all the other Zephyrs even the ford v-8 guys chuckle. I am easily amused.
  22. I suppose beauty is in the eye........even now, people consider 4 door chevys, plymouth cranbrooks, ford falcons, and anything old to be collectible / classic.... Is it good just caus it's old?? Do we say that the edsel is a great car?? or just an odd old car...collectable?? for beauty or extreme failure?? Live and let live...just dont be comparing a thing of beauty 1940 LC, to a mass produced bloated poorly engineeered generic auto with a time honored name stuck to it.. How bout a 75 chev z-28....?? low horse plastic sled living off name of previously special automobile... Why do we care about the 1 year mazda designed mkz..it said zephyr for a short time....get real. a real classic!!
  23. Here in the vast cornfields of oHIo, I have not had that problem. The old boys are grinning asking to see that v-12.. they recognize an exotic automobile when they see one.. We are mostly "farmers" as u know, and maybe we understand that a lincoln v-12 can be worn out in the same way a chevy, honda or chrysler would be. Lincolns were not owned by the masses when new...(at least not here), so by the time they were second hand..during a time of very limited resources, war, depression, cars were run down..or lugged around for conservation quiet etc. Our cars were very modern,before the war, but then became very dated jalopys no tworthy of major repairs... Compare the modern Cadillac aluminum 4.1 v-8. It was a marvel when new..(lots of oHIo farmers drive caddys) but the engine wore out and required serious overhaul, just like our v-12, but secondary or 3rd owners couldnt or wouldnt spend that much..sooooo bolt in an olds v-8 or a chevy or drive a nasty knocking smokin mess....sound familiar..... I suppose that makes caddy 4.1 junk too...I dont know... I am bored or I wouldnt devote this much time to an pointless post...but oh well... as soon as obamma rama is elected, we will send our cash to D.C. and eliminate need for old cars to spend it on...
