Collaro got the idea for their tonearm- centered detection system from Garrard's system

Hey there, seems like you’re an expert with this specific Ford radio. I have an E7AF-18B865-AA That I would like to add to a 1980s restoration I am doing. I have found some diagrams online and got it to power up, but I cannot get the illumination bulb to light. Also the cassette doesn’t work. Not sure if it’s related. Any chance we could connect privately to discuss? I’d appreciate it.

Do you have a drawing for this?

Pure comedy

Colony Park is my kind of ride

Warning for those disassembling the cross slide screw. One might get the impression that removing the coaxial (crank end) of the cross slide requires only unscrewing the nut casting directly behind the crank. This is what I thought because that's what you did (in reverse) when installing it. Yes, I did note that you aligned the key in the coax end with the key-way cut in the lead screw.. What I didn't notice is the Apron was absent when threading the crank assy onto the carriage. Therefore there was no interference when installing it. The bottom line is ( if the apron is installed ) the operator must loosen the two slotted apron screws enough to clear the mating gears in the Apron. . If you don't the crank assembly's power feed gear flutes will prevent its removal where it's meshing with the apron gears. This valuable info was conveyed to me by Dean at ua-cam.com/video/hGhaOVU8EPs/v-deo.html Dean responded to my plea within hours of me posting by problem removing the crank casting. This fact doesn't diminish the worth of your video though. Thank you for the video. Moreover a bigger thanks for not editing out those moments we all have searching for that pin, screw, nut or what ever. It was refreshing knowing it's not just ME! 🤪I hate myself for always being disorganized but I'm way too old to change now. Wakodahatchee Chris

They don't make music like they used too

I hate it when a salesmen starts a scripted sales pitch on a car I already know about. I'm more concerned about how much they are willing to discount it and what they will do for me to make a purchase and to convince me theirs will be the best deal I'll find before I move on to another dealer. There was no shortage of these Grand Marquis back then, but every damned time I'd find the color and options I wanted, it was the hardest to get the dealer to make me the best deal on the one I liked the best.

Good luck trying to get a salesman like that now. Lincoln wants you to fork over $100,000 to a r3dn3ck wearing blue jeans with a mouth fulla dip for a Navigator now.

Very nice. What is the primary impedance of Edcor Output Transformer did you use, the exact model. Thank you

I knew back then those Towncar were special If I was able to get one back then i would've Dexter Lombardo 🤠🧔

Do you have a video of how you got it so clean? Looks brand new, I'm refurbishing a Garrard RC111 in an old Fisher Series 202 console that my dad had.

Laserdisc!!!!!

Can you show the wiring diagram?

Smoked Cadillac in these years 😊😊😂

I love him failing to latch the sun visor, trying one more time, and giving up to keep rolling. true professional

Mark VI was always a beautiful car,

That looks like a small mid size. Where are the famous hidden headlights?

I tried this and my belt won’t stay on.

Most people don't realize how ground-breaking this Continental really was back in 1988. First front drive Lincoln with all the advanced tech to rival so many more expensive cars. I will have to say that the car's ONLY achille's heel was the air ride suspension. So many of these cars over a very short time found themselve sagged to the ground and needing special towing equipment to get these cars to the shop for repairs. Otherwise i've always had a sweet spot for these new Lincoln Continentals.

Do you have the video for the 1988 Tracer? That is a very special car to me. In the summer of 1987, my grandmother sold her red 1980 Mercury Zephyr Boxtop 2-door sedan & bought a dark blue 1988 Mercury Tracer 3-door from James Lincoln/Mercury in Wakefield, MA. I had many rides in this car from 1987-1994 & loved every one of them. Plus, I would spend Sundays at her house either sitting in it or reading the owners manual while everyone else was watching MTV or VH-1. The only options that it had were power steering (optional on her 3-door, standard on this 5-door & wagon), A/C, automatic, & an AM/FM stereo, but to me, that was more than enough. 7 years ago, my Nana Cronan passed away at the age of 90, but I will always think of her every time I look at that modest little car........& one day, I hope to have one exactly like it for myself.

The town car competed with Cadillac not the Chevy Caprice.

140 HP, yeah you really needed to beef up that trans to handle all the power

I remember the mercury sable seems so futuristic when it came out

I have a NOS Ford AM/FM cassette head unit with equalizer that I want to put in my '91 Mustang (it currently only has the usual bass/treble control head unit currently), but want Bluetooth added in the way you do it before putting it in the car. I like that you do this properly...where the signal from the Bluetooth switches automatically and that you are going direct into the preamp of the head unit vs FM modulation or how people are butchering their tape players sometimes when doing this work, and that its still controlled by the head unit's volume/tone/balances/etc. I want the best sounding Bluetooth module available used. Would you be willing to work on it? I saw in an old video of yours that you are in New Jersey, as I am. I also need work done on my radio with quad 8 track in my '77 Lincoln, but don't know if you work on the Ford radios that far back.

Much better. More like the car would have been if sold with the HO engine from the factory.

5:04 ran out of stuff to talk about

3:31 would be nice to actually see the engine…

I recently acquired one of these, same color - stamped 511. It came with a free-standing console (cabinet 45" x 27" x 14") with 8" speaker - radio unit fits inside. The radio unit power cap? (large can under the shield) has seemingly given it up and leaked, so no testing or power up until I get a chance to figure this thing out..... still gathering documentation. Steel must have been cheap in '28 because they certainly weren't shy about using plenty of it!

Me gusta el carro un Mercury Grand Marquis (Guri Conquistador) 1987; saludos.

Ford needs this guy back. Ford/lincoln is in shambles and treat dealers horrible

Same platform as the Town Car but these and the Crown Vic to me seemed more comfortable. I remember the Church Pastor having one in 1988 that was burgundy. It was nice.

The LSC was a nice design more marketed towards the younger crowd who were more likely to buy an import.

Thanks for the vid very cool

Have I asked you before? But I can’t get my taper pin out of the handle attachment. I’m trying to remove my cross slide but need to remove taper attachment first. I’m tapping from back of lathe to front. But it doesn’t budge. What could be hanging it up? What am I missing? Your help would be appreciated. Thanks, Paul

I will take the XR3 in red please.

Ah, it’s that blue handle at the end of your video that I’m trying to remove.

Thanks for this video. Nobody ever covers the underdrive. I’m trying to remove the belt tension crank handle off my 1968 10L. The manual says it’s held on with a pin, but I can’t find one. Same with the knurled tumbler knobs. Any idea how to remove these things? Thanks, Paul Oh, I’m replacing my 220 VAC single stage motor with a 4.25 hp treadmill motor with variable speed, forward/reverse and electric break, eventually. This is one reason I want to remove that tension handle. Do you know what the rpm is of the central shaft that’s connected to the big pulley? So many questions. Thanks again.

Looks like you indicated that it comes out the left side. So to remove, you punch from the right. I think mine is stuck. I tried heating the surrounding metal to no avail. Any ideas? Paul

Hi. Do you know which way the tapered pin comes out of the cylinder that sticks up? I can’t remove mine no matter which way I pound it. Looking at the lathe from the front, do you punch it out from right to left or left to right? Thanks, Paul

What dials do you have? They look nice. Paul

Mercury Sable....is just a Ford Taurus...with different Badging!!!!

JD and RT…

I vividly remember the color schemes on both the Cartier Town Car and Givenchy Continental and they looked absolutely stunning.

I always liked the Crown Vic better, but if I was going to pick a Grand Marquis the 88 to 91 look the best to me.

I miss my 1988 Mark Vii LSC. 😢 They even got Bob Bonderaunt to talk about Lincoln's raciest model.... A fat, comfortable, classy, bad boy mustang gt in a tux. Lincoln is over due for a cheaper SL Mercedes competitor based on the mustang... Just picture how bad ass, totally rad that hot rod Lincoln would be .... That is definitely one of my fantasy roadsters/ vehicles. Too bad Lincoln is a dull tall, mushy handling, fake truck, station wagon on stilts for those who think being at the local library til it closes qualifies as a "wild night" type of company now. Building vehicles so boring that they're perfect for those who want self driving pods without steering wheels that they can be old in, on their way to check out discount funeral plots, because they got they're license within 10 years of WW2. Yawn! Build something sexy, or be forgotten. Even if it doesn't sell in big numbers it won't cost a fortune to build, and it could serve a that flag carrying halo car that can shock some life into your snore fest lineup. Most people can't even name a Lincoln product on sale rn, besides the cruise ship for retirees to practice dirt napping in, known as the Nap-it-gave-her... Oops, the navigatior. It won't matter what I called it because young people are busy gawking over the retarded, but brilliant Escalade V that will get people to walk into caddy dealerships. Lincoln buyers just use the hospice van because they're too old to be excited by thrilling , innovative, or daring products.😅😅 Ok, jokes aside, build that roadster halo car for Lincoln using the mustang chassis. Have the fastest model powered by electricity (even if I don't like it, it would speak to buyers), and slower models with turbo 4, 6, and V8 power plants you can pluck right from the tang like when you guys made a mock rolls two door, with red, white, and blue muscle under it's exaggerated, just shy of elegant hood. You could even build a vehicle that looks like a two door Bentley, powered by mustang parts, and sold at a discount... I bet it becomes a hot topic in automotive circles, with more than one exclaiming "Lincoln is back!", and all it would take is a beautifully styled, wood grain, and leather lined, rear wheel drive, gussied up Ford.

Why is the woman in the continental driving her dad around?

That comb over is so distracting! I feel like Austin Powers looking at a mole.... High quality, look at your head. We live in a competitive world, yes, but look at that carpet you draped over an ostrich egg of a melon! If he shaved his head, he'd just be a bald guy, which isn't as bad as that dolls wig he glued to his hat hanger. Wig! Wiggy, wonky, wig! Wiggly, wussy, wig! Wispy, wtf, WIG! I'm trying to big mature, but look at it! It mentally slapped me so hard that I didn't hear a word he said! That wig was louder than his words!

The 87 Connie just spells SLEEPER
