The oil leak could be something simple or something major. A Town Car with 170K on the odometer and a bad oil leak isn't going to fetch much. I'd get it looked at by a mechanic and at least get an idea of it's mechanical condition. If you sold it as is, you'll be giving it away, but the flip side is putting more money into it than you can get back out.
