1964 Lincoln Continental hardtop.
The vehicle has ~68,000 original miles on it. That is true original mileage, and the odometer has not rolled over 100k. I purchased the car about 3 years ago. I acquired it from a man who got it at an estate sale in Arizona. Prior to that, it was a one owner vehicle. I've put less than 100 miles on it since purchasing. To my knowledge, it was driven from '64-'72; where it was then placed in a climate controlled garage after the owner passed away until it was sold. The car's condition reflects it. Since purchasing it, I've spent over $5k in repairs; new carb, new fuel pump, and a few other things I can list. As is, the car has a leak in the power steering pump which needs to be fixed. This just happened recently. There is also a shift linkage issue (which is fairly common as I understand with this model) which causes the shifter to wiggle a little bit when putting it into park/neutral. It's not a major issue, but want to disclose it. The 2 rear windows do not go down. Either they need the motors replaced which can be purchased for about $100, or they may just be stuck due to built up grease on them; the door panels would need to be removed to further diagnose which I have not done yet. Also at some point the muffler on the car was modified to a single pipe; unlike the common dual muffler common on these cars. The AC blows, but not very cold so if you want AC it would need a new compressor. The car still has it's original paint and has not been resprayed. The paint is not perfect, but still relatively in tact. I have a pint of matching factory paint I'll include. Cosmetically, there is a ding on the driver's side front fender which you can see in the picture and another small dent on the rear passenger door. There are some rust spots which have started to show along some seams on the exterior, but undercarriage is in decent condition. All of the chrome is overall in great condition however (which is one of the most costly parts in restoring these). There is little to no oxidation on any of the chrome trim pieces inside or outside. There is a ~2cm ding on the chrome trim piece that goes above the windshield. I purchased a new piece I did not install yet and will include with the sale as well. The interior is is pretty good condition as well. The leather is worn where your butt and back go on all seats, but the rears of the seats, tops, center and other parts are in excellent condition and look almost new. The perforated leather roof is in perfect condition and carpet is in decent condition as well. The seats would not need to be fully re-upholstered and just need the patches where it's worn replaced. I am open to having that done prior to selling it which I can discuss further with interested buyers. I have original 1964 New York (World's Fair) plate I will include which can be used on the vehicle if registered as a historic car in NY. I also have the 1964 NYS inspection sticker for the windshield I'll include. There are no owners manuals and one set of keys (for doors/trunk and ignition). This is not a show car, but not a complete junker/restoration project either. Much better condition than most of the Knowing the types of buyers this will attract I've tried to disclose as much as possible but will be happy to address any further questions. For someone looking for one of these, this is an excellent car that can be brought back up to excellent condition with a little work. I simply do not have the time for it anymore which is why I am selling. You'll be hard to find a car like this in original condition for this price. With what I paid and the work I've put in, I'm taking a loss financially- I hope the next owner will enjoy it as much as I have. Car is located in Upstate, NY. If you are purchasing out of state, you are responsible for making arrangements to pick up and transport at your expense. I am open to selling it internationally, but you would also be responsible for handling all logistics and related expenses. Buyer must pay full price in cash, wire or certified bank check within 72 hours of auction close. Since I am new to eBay I'll be glad to address any questions regarding purchasing. If you have 0 or negative feedback, please contact me prior to placing a bid. Since it is a '64 there is no VIN or 'title'. Transaction will be completed and ownership signed over like any classic car. I have only posted one picture for now, but will be uploading more over the weekend. If there is anything specific you would like to see a picture of, please message me. I am more than happy to show the car in person at my residence, but please don't waste my time; needless to say serious buyers only. |

1955 Lincoln Indianapolis concept up for auction
Sat, 21 Sep 2013
Lincoln was never a brand known for making sports cars. In fact it hasn't offered anything with less than four doors since the demise of the Mark VIII, and that was hardly what you'd call "performance oriented". But that doesn't mean that Ford's luxury marque never toyed with the idea.
In 1955 Ford delivered a Lincoln chassis (along with a 200-horsepower V8 engine and four-speed automatic transmission) to Carrozzeria Boano, an Italian coachbuilder that had just branched off from Ghia the year before. The resulting orange coupe you see here was named after Indianapolis and was unveiled at the Turin Motor Show. And while its detailing may have been divisive, the overall shape certainly caught the eye.
Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models
Fri, 30 Aug 2013The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.
Lincoln releases power and economy ratings for 2015 MKC with 2.3L EcoBoost
Thu, 05 Jun 2014As the first 2015 MKC crossovers slip into dealerships, Lincoln has confirmed power and fuel economy ratings for the compact crossover's optional 2.3-liter Ecoboost four-cylinder engine.
The new range-topping powerplant, thus far otherwise unavailable in the Blue Oval kingdom, will net a healthy 285 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 305 pound-feet of torque from 2,750 revs. Those figures represent gains of 10 hp and 5 lb-ft over earlier estimates, putting the handsome new compact CUV in the hunt with up-engined rivals from Audi and BMW. (A variant of the 2.3L will shortly find its way into the engine bay of the 2015 Ford Mustang, albeit with a number of key changes, including north-south orientation.)
In the MKC, the new engine will net 18 miles per gallon in the city and 26 on the highway with standard all-wheel drive, meaning it only loses a single mile per gallon in the city cycle versus the 240-hp, 270-lb-ft 2.0L EcoBoost model when fitted with all-wheel drive. Both engines rely on the same six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission.
