eBay Find of the Day: Lincoln Town Car(nage)
Click above for gallery of the Lincoln Town Car(nage)
When is a 1996 Lincoln Town Car with 114,000 miles on the clock worth $15,098? The correct answer should be never. In this case, however, the answer is when someone supposedly drops $45,000 worth of work into one to make a fake Bentley Arnage. The result is what you see above; add a couple of fender-mounted chandeliers and it could score a role as The Duke's car in Escape From New York. That giant C-pillar is more Rolls than Bentley and those chrome dubs are more bad than good. The biggest disaster comes into view when you open the door and look inside. That interior reportedly cost $10,000. You'd think that amount would buy more than quilted leather, a passel of winged-B emblems that aren't fooling anybody, and that stock instrument panel, but apparently... no. Anyway, somebody liked it enough to buy it, so what do we know. We're sure it'll look great in their garage. You know – right next to the Fierarri.

I agree- there is more than one definition to this amount of suckage.

I think it's "F(unny)" regardless! Figuring this isn't college thesis or the instructions to make the cure for cancer....

Oh, and for 45K you would think they would have replaced the mouse fur headliner.

EEEEEEEEEExceleeeeeeeeeent play on words.
I will go with carnage though. Seriously, how do you throw $45,000 at a mid-90's Ford with a V8 and not touch the engine?

Naa, I think that the pictures were taken right before the home-owner called the police.

As horrible as it is, I agree. The stock TC is far more awful.

I agree, haha! It's a horrible Bentley fake, but pretty nice for a Town Car!
