I think its the way the light is molded in if you look at it from the conner light to the wheel it looks about right.

Looks like a wide angle lens on the camera, or something along those lines.

Looks to me like it had an electrical fire back there ??? :?:

1980's Lincoln Mark VII (Fox chassis). With the fake spare tire looking hump on the trunk lid. Just a guess, but I think it might be right.

Great minds think alike, cause that's what I thought too, as well as the Fox bodied Continental sedans. I literally looked for pics for over an hour of those cars and the only ones I found weren't the same, but I could only find the newer style of that platform, and didn't see any pics of the early ones.

Here's a Cardomain site on one that shows the rear: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/449926 I think it's a match.

I'm still trying to figure out what the hell the guy was talking about in the article. Definately not 442 rims, they have beauty rings on them. I think the trunk only looks stretched because of the angle of the shot, looks like they took out the quarter extension and put in a taillight from a wagon.
 
It reminded me of a Caddy tail light. Early 80's Seville maybe? Lincoln light I think would be too tall. But it does have a similar shape.

I think it looks like crap so who cares what it is?

People like me who have no lives and instead enjoy showing off their anorak skills online!
