Hopefully this is not a repost, I am sensitive and hate getting flamed.

Holy God this was an experiment by Lincoln in their Mark series cars. Nothing special, and you've posted this twice.

There was one of those cars for sale on eBay a couple of months ago. I think it sold for 10k.

I'll bet that's a $7-8K mod or more though.

It actually makes sense on the Mark VII. I'd almost like to do that for that car. 2 door car with 4 door ease. They have room in the back seats too !!!

If it was $3-4K you might have something there.

stupidest thing i have ever seen. i can see where this could be practical in europe since the streets are so small and opening a door is very risky in the city but doing this for bling factor is just as dumb as doing lambo-style doors

Interesting doors. Still trying to figure out where they fold it into if it keeps the clearances under the car the same. still favorite doors of all time have to be on the Konisegg CCXR, the switchblade doors. just do a search for it on youtube.
