I am reluctantly offering for sale my beautifully restored 1958 Lincoln Continental Mark III convertible.  I acquired this magnificent classic automobile from a well known west coast car collector in 2007 at which time the majority of the restoration had already just been completed.  It had always been a rust free California car.  I then proceeded to systematically take the car to another level by investing more money and an inestimable amount of my own time to lovingly bring this vehicle to its current state of form and function.  Virtually every component is new or rebuilt.  This awesome Lincoln functions as good as it looks due to the considerable amount of time I have taken to ensure that it runs, drives, handles, tracks, and brakes superbly.  If desired this Lincoln can be driven anywhere with confidence and it performs amazingly well.  Since being restored the only miles the car has been driven have been the test miles required to bring it up to its current status.  I would certainly consider my 1958 Lincoln to be one of the finest driving automobiles in its class and one of the nicest overall in terms of fit, finish, and driving pleasure.  Body gaps are perfect and there are no annoying squeaks or rattles.  I acquired this car to be a show car but more than that I expected it to drive perfectly as well and it was meant to be a keeper for life.  Due to current circumstances I would like to offer this wonderful collectible car for sale.  I will most likely not have the experience of enjoying the fruits of my labor but the next owner will absolutely be delighted with this fine motorcar.  I will sell this vehicle worldwide and have sold to Europe in the past.  Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements but I will help with whatever is necessary on this end to ensure a smooth transaction.  Thanks for looking.

Lincoln scales back free maintenance

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

Complimentary scheduled maintenance programs have been great tools for luxury automakers to draw in new customers, but some are starting to scale their programs back considerably. According to Automotive News, Lincoln is joining Jaguar and Volvo on the list of automakers reducing the length of time it will be providing free maintenance to its customers.
Lincoln's four-year/50,000-mile maintenance program first kicked off as an incentive in 2010 and became permanent later that year, but starting with the 2014 model year, this will be cut to just two years and 24,000 miles. This could make short-term leases even more appealing for some consumers, but according to Automotive News, some Lincoln dealers are unhappy with the scaling back. The move admittedly comes at an odd time for Lincoln, with parent Ford seemingly working hard to increase consideration among luxury buyers as it looks to reverse the marque's long decline.

Lincoln poised to double MKZ Hybrid production

Thu, 18 Jul 2013

The Lincoln MKZ Hybrid has been something of a hit for Ford since the beginning, exceeding the company's modest projected 15-percent take rate for more than two years (we say "modest" because that still means an overwhelming majority of Lincoln customers are passing up on the gas-electric powertrain even though it costs the same as the standard model). Either way, Lincoln builds 700 MKZ Hybrids at its plant in Mexico each month, but has sold 715 of them in each of the past three months. That's why, according to a report in The Detroit News, when the restyled 2014 MKZ Hybrid arrives (non-hybrid pictured), Ford is doubling production compared to 2013. Instead of the hybrid model being 20 percent of production, the new hybrid will make up 40 percent.
Ford is doing well with hybrids in general - its portion of the electrified vehicle segment jumping 12 points in a single year to 16 percent. Assuming Ford doesn't change the pricing strategy (along with the changes Ford is making to calibration to improve fuel economy), the sedan could continue to "[show] other luxury hybrids how it's done" when it goes on sale later this year.

2015 Ford F-150 named Truck of Texas, Lincoln and Jeep also awarded at Truck Rodeo

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

The Ford Motor Company has a lot of reasons to celebrate after winning eight categories in this year's Texas Auto Writers Association's annual Truck Rodeo. Most important among them, the Blue Oval's latest 2015 Ford F-150 earned the prestigious Truck of Texas award, ending the Ram 1500's two-year winning streak. The 2015 Lincoln MKC also grabbed the honor as the CUV of Texas, and Ford was named Truck Line of Texas.
FoMoCo even took trophies for best technology with its extensive use of aluminum on its latest F-Series and best commercial vehicle for the new Transit 250. It wasn't a total sweep, though, because the Jeep Grand Cherokee grabbed the title of the SUV of Texas for the fifth straight time.
This year's event put 60 auto writers in 75 pickups, SUVs and crossovers and challenged them to find the best in a plethora of categories. All of the winners are listed below, and scroll down to read the full announcements from the Texas Auto Writers Association and Ford.
