About Lincoln Mark VII
The Lincoln Mark VII was a rear-wheel-drive luxury coupe that was manufactured and marketed by Lincoln, the luxury division of Ford. When it first come out in 1983 for the 1984 model year, it was named the Continental Mark VII. It changed its name when all Continental brand models were combined into the Lincoln brand in 1986. The Mark VII inherited the assembly lines and parts from its predecessor, the Continental Mark VI, and shared the lines and parts with other Ford automobile models, including the Lincoln Continental, the Ford Thunderbird, and the Mercury Cougar. The assembly plant was in Wixom, Michigan. It adopted Ford's Fox platform for the production and was assembled as a front-wheel-drive. The Mark VII was replaced by the Lincoln Mark VIII in 1993.
The Lincoln Mark VII was supported by many parts which it got from its former name model. Standard equipment parts included digital instruments like an onboard trip message center, full air suspension at all four wheels, and a replaceable bulb headlamp system which made it the first American-made vehicle to ever get one installed. The Mark VII was upgraded in 1988 with the discontinuation of the base trim level. The automobile was only available in the luxury-oriented Bill Blass Edition model and the performance-oriented LSC model which were offered at the same price. The LSC was given more powerful engine parts and analog gauges.

In 1990, in order to meet the passive-restrain regulations and for better safety considerations, the Mark VII installed an extra airbag for the driver's side and 3-point seatbelts to the outboard rear seats. The dashboard was redesigned along with the whole interior. For better performance at the LSC level, it was offered with an addition of a set of 16-inch wheels and a 120-mph speedometer. The Bill Blass Edition got the same suspension and wheels of the LSC level in 1991 as the assembly lines were consolidated mechanically. Both versions were offered with seats that were redesigned completely than before.
