New guy here from SoCal. I currently drive a 1995 Lincoln Mark VIII. I chose the car because I like its odd lines and ode to classic Lincoln spare hump. The car came from the factory with a computer controlled air ride. In stock form the car lowers itself when it reaches 55 mph. It also lowers itself when you park. The most common system failures are dry rotted bags or blown compressors. Most people just stop driving them when the air system fails which contributes to their very low selling price. Marks can be had from 500 to 3500. I bought mine for 1700. Anyway what I did was modify the stock bags to accept conventional ptc fittings. I went with paddle valves because they're cheap, a viair 144, a couple of dual needle gauges and an air Zentih aluminum tank. Total cost around 500 to gain manual control of the system. No need for custom mounts or fabrication. Right now it sits on red drilled 2006 mustang v6 wheels but I def plan on running concaves in the near future. It's an oddball car that some won't like but hey it's long low and has 32v DOHC modular engine.
