    SO GLAD you have kept her this far Nick. !!! LOVE the new Wheels and Tires. They look so Great. I too just put my new Hankook Wider White wall tires (1 inch vs. 1/4 Inch like the Travelstars) on my Town Car. They make the Beautiful Factory Wheels POP....I will send you pics at your gmail account. Hope you like them, I just think it needed a wider white. !!! Still hope you keep your BEAUTIFUL TC at the end of the day, but you got to do what you got to do. Thanks...

    You make a lot of sense, Nick. Have something on the back burner, in case you get that right offer. You need to have wheels. You can't be stuck with nothing to drive, and you end up making a rash decision that you regret.

    You are doing 100% the right thing for the channel and for your pocketbook it does get old talking and seeing the same subject over and over

    Hey Nick! Wheels looks great! Honestly I haven’t heard about the Travelstars, or I may have went with those. I just put some new Coopers on my LTC. I like them. I truly think you are doing it right with your Lincoln. It’s drop dead gorgeous! No matter what I’m a fan of your channel! Thanks for the mention. There’s nothing like a spotless car in the dead of winter. Instant respect for the pride of ownership.

    Buy a mint high mile 03+, do videos on repairs, intake, air suspension air bladders, servicing the transmission pan, programing door code, adding new keys, how to clean throttle body, how to adjust sagging front doors, etc

      This is what I would like to see. I have an '03 w/ 198k on the clock. I have put more money into it than I should have, basically because I had to have much of the work done by shops as I didn't have a place to work on it.
      Still, I love the damned thing. It runs great. It's comfortable. It's well kept. I know I can get another 200k out of it. I plan to keep it and just do the maintenance and repairs as needed.
      I just ordered $500 worth of parts from Rockauto. I will be putting KYB struts and shocks, Moog front sway bar links, and polyurethane sway bar bushings in. After that I am thinking about putting a Addco 650 sway bar kit in the rear end to replace the terrible 15mm stock sway bar.
      I have already seen way too many "Hey guys, look at how shiny my car is" videos on RUclips. I like some meat with my taters.

    WOW!! You did the right thing! It looks soooooooo gooooooood! My wheels need to be powder coated too! I had no idea that could be done. Can you give me some info about that? Also, I'm on my second set of Travelstar whitewalls and love them!! On changing fluids (do your research but) DO NOT have your transmission fluid "Flushed", Only change the filter and fluid!! Just drop the pan and replace the filter, it will take about 4 quarts. Flushing may ruin the transmission! On selling the Lincoln, I'd keep it and save up for another car for the videos (cheap car that needs repairs or cleaning etc) You'll always regret selling it believe me!!

    • @GetThisNick
      @GetThisNick  9 месяцев назад

      If you find some local wheel powder coating shops near you they should be able to help get you set up. I called around and got some prices and went with the best deal with best reviews and I’m really happy about them. They look great!

    Also I have an idea for you: what about a similar town car but with a crazy high mileage to compare them ? My spouses cousin has a 2011 ex limo with over 665,000 miles all original. And it looks like it has 150 😂. Or a kenne belle supercharger like you suggested hehe ❤

    • @GetThisNick

      A Supercharged sleeper would be a really fun addition

    Right, to get 30% over what you paid having done support you're doing quite well anything more than that is definitely extra. The market is or has bubble opportunity may not present itself again.

    Do you still have them? I would like to buy them.

    • @GetThisNick
      @GetThisNick  9 месяцев назад

    Hey get it nick, picked up the 04 TC,Looks like it a leak somewhere, A puddle behind the Drivers Seat?? Any answers,??

    • @GetThisNick
      @GetThisNick  9 месяцев назад

      Behind the passengers seat is usually the vent cowl which I did a video on on how to fix. But behind the drivers side I’m not too sure.
      I did a quick google search and was able to come up with this video ruclips.net/video/u9nvsbtSw7E/видео.htmlsi=sOCEDaEXjbbug7oP
      Apparently he had water coming in from the firewall and it was causing it to be wet behind the drivers seat. Maybe you’re having the same issue?

      Thank you Getthisnick,It's so ironic, I was gonna buy this Guy Lincoln last year.. Smh

  • @frenchyp7b

    I think the white wall vs black is a west coast/east coast thing - kinda like the carriage too. I have a few contacts here in Cali who absolutely despise white walls and carriage tops and exclusively want a plain Jane look. Does it look outdated? Yes. But yeah it s a Lincoln too so it’s … expected? Haha. I also have another Tc from Florida with light camel interior. I really like it but my clients prefer black for some reason.
    Also - you never know what you re getting for a trade - BUT- Do what makes sense to you first. I am able to let one of my low mile 2011 TC go for almost 20.
    Some TCs are just special to us. My other TC is one of the lest ones to roll of the assembly line (mid August). To me this is worth something but likely not to every one else haha

    • @GetThisNick
      @GetThisNick  9 месяцев назад

      That’s a pretty unique comparison between the west and east coast but I could see what you mean. Me personally I don’t like the carriage tops at all, but different people have different tastes!

    I think your new wheels and tires look great. If you don't mind me asking, how much was it to get the wheels powder- coated? The wheels on my 2002 Town Car look okay from ten feet away, but up close, there is definitely some wear.
    Hopefully you will keep your Town Car. I know some people that used to have a Town Car, but ended up selling them to buy something newer, and now they regret it.

      The previous owner had them installed. I’m not sure where he purchased from

    You like the bottom trim but took off the fender trim. I like no trim but if trimmed keep all the trim. My car has no trim but has body color window vents.

    • @GetThisNick
      @GetThisNick  8 месяцев назад

      We all have our opinions. I’ll do what I want to my car when I want to, thank you though

    • @altg5708
      @altg5708 8 месяцев назад

      @@GetThisNick I wasn't disrespecting your opinion. I wondered why you like the bottom chrome so much but yet you took off the fender chrome.
      I was also pointing out my own inconsistencies by saying I didn't like the chrome trim but like the window trim. I know we all like what we like.
      It's all good.
      Anthony like the TC with the chrome trim added.
