[@brianp6965]

I owned an '89 Town Car limo for a few years privately and worked on it myself. They're not made to last very long; no rustproofing, sloppy welds, lots of leaks. This was a California car but you could easily identify every piece of custom metal because it was covered in surface rust - next to rust-free factory panels. They used a two piece driveshaft and a single carrier bearing for mine (a 72" stretch). Limos are a lot like RVs... there are a couple of companies that make parts for a multitude of limo manufacturers. Mine had a secondary HVAC box behind the driver's compartment with a second heater core and AC evaporator. It had air shocks, but otherwise looked like the original Lincoln coils in the rear. Two batteries and a 200A alternator - may have been an option from Lincoln. The rear compartment solenoid looked the same as one used for a 1950s Ford starter. The biggest issue was glass, lots of custom, curved glass. Once some kids broke the rear door glass. The doors were stretched about 8" and had custom glass. I had to have a polycarbonate window custom made because the original supplier was out of business. They literally spliced the original wire harness going to the back of the car to extend it. There are a surprising number of circuits going back there. It was a remarkably reliable car though, easy to work on too.

[@thatkidmingming7390]

even in the video the welds are very sloppy

[@97336cf]

I own a stretched range rover 5.0 supercharged, and since it's a range rover, the limo parts have been the most reliable parts 🤣 but seriously, luckily mine was done by one of the largest conversion firms in the country, so mine is built very well...12 years later, the bondo just developed a slight crack. The problem with limos is, you can have the worst backyard job possible, or a very high quality build, and if you dont know who built it,, you'll only have two ways of finding out: let it get old and see, or worse...crash it Edit: I should also mention that the hack job backyard limos are pretty much mainly just Town Cars, Cadillacs, and Excursions. Most of the more exotic type of limos, BMW sedan limos, Mercedes limos, stuff that isn't usually stretched in america, have a better chance of being a higher quality build. Hackjob 1980s-2011 stretched Lincolns are a dime a dozen

[@Dat-Mudkip]

They're stronger then you might think. I saw a video of one getting hit dead-center by a train. It obviously wasn't driveable afterwards, but everyone inside survived the accident.

[@dinoflagella4185]

They are tack welded until they are certain the piece is where it’s supposed to be. You don’t start laying down beads until everything is tacked in place. If you start welding seams before tacking it in place. The welds would pull the metal in one direction. So if you weld one side first, the metal rail will have shifted by the time you get to the other side. If you pull the rail back into place and weld you would introduce stress into the work piece. Therefore you tack the pieces together then go back and seam weld. They just didn’t show them finishing up the seams, but you can see the finished welds if you look close enough.

Realistically the extra current draw is negligible; LED lighting, a midgrade stereo, and maybe a fridge. Even a compressor-driven fridge/freezer can draw as little as 45 watts -- Ford offered it as an option on some of their crossovers and was capable of keeping ice cream frozen.
