1997 Lincoln Town Car V8 Lowrider - Hops & 3-Wheels

1997 Lincoln Town Car Lowrider will full hydraulic setup - capable of hopping, and static/ rolling 3-wheels.

Hydraulic setup - 3 pumps/ 3 dumps with 6 truck batteries, chain bridge, chassis reinforcement and a large number of new & rebuilt parts fitted to the suspension/ hydraulic setup/ chassis in the last year or so. Some work is required to tidy it up, but unfortunately I won't get to finish it due to family commitments.


Mileage is around 100k based on previous MOTs and how little mileage has been covered since – has had replacement digital dash since MOT in 2020 so currently shows 290k+ miles on car and most recent MOT.



Original paint is white underneath the blue sparkly wrap, various parts previously plated in gold inc. grill surround, door handle surrounds, badge, trim around front & rear lights etc.


13” wire wheels in rose gold. Brand new tyres fitted last year, no more than a few hundred miles covered since.

72v to front, 24v to rears
6x New Hankook Truck/ tractor batteries
3x Pro-Hopper pumps, recently rebuilt
Heavy duty chain bridge for static 3-wheels

Extensive work carried out by LayNPLay in summer 2022:

6x brand new Hankook batteries with new terminals & cables
4x brand new Maxxis white wall tyres
Completely rebuilt boot setup
Degreased/ cleaned & repainted with bed liner
New custom racking built for batteries, solenoids & pumps
Wiring completely redone and hidden within racking
Rebuilt/ resealed front rams
New 12” rear rams
New deep front cups
New hoses
New heavy duty chain bridge
New front upper ball joints
Arches undersealed and rear end cleaned up/ painted
Rear trailing arms refabricated by Limit Fabrications
Rebuilt pumps, new seals, 2 motors replaced with known good used motors
Wing mirrors replaced with good used set

Good points:

Starts, runs & drives well – a little lumpy from cold, but drives well after a minute or so to warm up
Hydraulics in great working order – static 3 wheels, hops etc. with no issues, ready to use - all the complicated parts are done
Sounds great – side pipes are loud enough but not stupid loud
Lots of new, rebuilt, cleaned up or checked over parts underneath

Areas needing improvement:

Needs a good valet/ polishing
Some areas of light damage like rear bumper corners, edge of bonnet/ doors, wheel refurbs etc.
Some small areas of rust on body around rear parts of sills, but wrap would need removed to see properly – not structural
Discs/ pads will likely need doing, due to how little car has moved over past few years
Various fiddly bits would benefit from being sorted e. g. drivers seat electric movement etc.
Minor leak of ATF fluid
Head unit needs wired up

Have a box of spares to go with the car, ball joints etc. and a tool for tightening/ loosening knock-offs. Car is located not far from Glasgow and the M74 south, can recommend a transport company if required and it will drive on/ off a trailer or car transporter no problem.

Please note the MOT has now expired so would need to be trailered away.
