Thanks for the advice....not sure how much I want to do with the car yet. It's not really a classic, but since it was bought new by my Grandfather, I might have a little hesitation to chop it all up. I'm heading out to work at 5am, and going to drive 60mph and see what it does going slower. There's also a few hills I can coast down on my way to work at 65+.

My buddy has this car:



So I know that there aren't that many parts that are bolt-ons to make the thing fast, that's why I am looking into doing some aero mods. And yes, I know the above Lincoln is not a Towncar and it has a downforce spoiler, but hot rod Lincolns are hard to find pictures of, despite the old rock song
