Lincoln Versaille




I already reamed Cadillac for making a sow's ear out of a sow's rear, so now it is Lincoln's time. Remember the Lincoln Versaille that was produced for 4 years starting in 1977. Lincoln took a Ford Granada, oops, sorry, a Mercury Monarch, and slapped four rectangular headlamps and a Lincoln grille on the front, and a continental tire bulge on the trunk to create this masterpiece. They tarted up the interior with all of the luxury features they could find, like extra chrome and thicker carpeting. Ford couldn't even change the steering wheel design so that it wasn't the same as a lowly Ford Pinto. Jeeze, Ford had these batwing steering wheels on everything they made for years and years. Then Lincoln throws a high price tag on these beauties so that everyone knows that have bought something special. They were higher priced then the rest of the Lincoln lineup! Talk about arrogance! These jokers had to be laughing all the way to the bank with every one sold. I am surprised that Lincoln didn't slap a continental kit on the Pinto and call it the Le Pissuer. Hopefully I have not let a cat out of the bag by printing this.
