Every once in a while I come across something that is so bizarre, and so out there, that I have to show it to the Hoons that frequent this site, like this thing that is currently on eBay. This is a Customized 1978 Lincoln Town Car that has been shortened, and then was subjected to all sorts of styling modifications that are questionable at best. So, would you ever consider owning this Town Shorty? 
OK, where do I begin with this thing? Let’s just say it’s unique, and leave it at that. From the two-tone paint, to the Funkadelic Interior, this is one seriously strange Town Car. The car has an aftermarket stereo system, sitting in more fake fur, a padded roof in need of some new paint, and why on earth does it have larger Mud and Snow tires on the rear? 
According to the listing:
This car is unique but awesome. It used to be a 4 DOOR!! It still has the hinges for the rear doors! Its Sporting a great running 460 7.5L Engine and automatic transmission its got some big 32 inch tires on the back to add to the character. If you wanted a cool unique car to drive around anywhere this is the one for you.
A couple of things before I go onto the pricing… Looking at the engine compartment. I don’t see an A/C Compressor, so I guess there is no A/C… And there looks to be some kind of rust forming in front of the rear wheel wells, so buyer beware. Starting Bid for this car is $2,000, and there is 6 days to go until the auction ends. I wish the seller a lot of luck in moving this “Missing Linc” off to a new home.
