Note: I am relisting this as previous winning bidder never even responded. Please do not waste my time or serious bidders time. If your rating is less than 10 your bid will be cancelled unless you email me with your contact information to ensure no scammers or deadbeats! Great opportunity to own a rare 1963 Lincoln Continental Suicide Door with Factory A/C at a reasonable price! Only 3,138 of these beauties were built and no telling how many are left! This 1963 Lincoln Convertible has had some restoration done but will need a lot of work to finish. The previous owner told me he started the restoration a few years ago and had the car painted but has been outside for 2 or 3 years which effected the paint on the trunk lid and hood and should be redone. Looks like the other panels might be ok with some buffing. He had the engine completely rebuilt by a professional shop in Orlando. I called them and they verified that they completely rebuilt it and in fact remembered that they had a hard time locating some of the parts. I asked for a receipt but they needed a date, which the previous owner did not remember, before they would dig through their files. I have their name and number.I have not started the engine or even attempted to turn it over since it has been sitting outside for so long. I have removed the plugs and filled each cylinder with marvel mystery oil and drained and replaced the engine oil as well. It will be up to the new owner to complete the process. It might be fine but I honestly don't know. Fortunately the interior was at the upholstery shop and not left outside. He had the interior redone as pictured which includes the front and back seats, front door panels and new carpet but never finished the rear door panels which I have with the car. We placed all the new interior pieces in the car for the pictures to show what it looks like installed which is beautiful. There is one small spot on the front seat that needs repair. The dash is very nice with no cracks. The floors are solid (see the pictures) although there was the start of rust on the front drivers floor which we coated with POR 15 which stops any current rust or in the future. I did find some areas of rust underneath the worse being at the left rear underneath the rear bumper area (this definitely needs to be addressed). There is some bubbling around the drivers side rear of the trunk lid that should be addressed. I saw no evidence of any accidents but am no expert. It seems like most of the trim is there but I do not have the time to go through the boxes of parts to see what if any parts are missing. Also I have no idea nor did the previous owner what condition the top mechanisms are in. I would just assume they will need work. The Data Plate reads Body - 74A...Color G...Trim 85...Date 12C...DSQ 16 which indicates it was originally Silver Mink Metallic with a red leather interior. The rare 1963 convertible with Air Conditioning is considered by many experts as the most desirable of any of the 61' to 67's convertibles. This is an opportunity to get into one at a reasonable price. *Please feel free toemail with questions and to setup an inspection of the car. Inspections musttake place before bidding not after. If you do not personally inspect the caror have someone inspect it on your behalf then you must agree to positive feedback.I say this because although I try to disclose everything to my knowledgeconcerning condition of the car my opinion may differ from yours oncertain issues. If you do not perform due diligence on this or any othervehicle then it would be totally unfair for you to leave negative feedbackand ruin my rating because you disagree with something you should have beenaware of before your purchase by having it inspected to your satisfaction ornot.

Lincoln's first shipment of cars arrives in China
Mon, 15 Sep 2014It has been two years since Lincoln first announced its plans to expand into China, and the first models destined for sale in the giant automotive market just came off the boat in Shanghai on September 10. It's going to be a few weeks before Chinese buyers actually have the chance to get behind the wheel, though.
The first two models being offered to China are the MKZ and MKC, as seen arriving in these photos, and they are going to be sold at dealers that look more like hotels than traditional showrooms. The first four are opening in Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou in October, with a grand unveiling of the new brand to Chinese consumers later that month. By the end of the year, Lincoln wants to have eight dealers operating in seven cities. By 2016, the automaker wants to have a lineup of five models available in the People's Republic.
"This is the culmination of months of teamwork and collaboration both in North America and here in China," said Robert Parker, President of Lincoln China, in the company's release.
Matthew McConaughey returns in new Lincoln MKX ads
Thu, Sep 10 2015Matthew McConaughey is getting back behind the wheel of a Lincoln for a set of cool new ads for the MKX. Unlike his oft-parodied spots for the MKC, the latest ones eschew the easy-going actor's semi-philosophical musings in place of some smooth jazz, a mysterious story, and shots of the luxury crossover on the road. Separately, the three commercials are titled Welcome, Arrival, and Winning Hand, and they combine to tell a story of McConaughey getting ready for a game of poker. Of course, the MKX is meant to be the real star, and the spots show off its high-end tech, including a 360-degree camera, Revel Audio system, and hands-free parking. Keep an eye out for a cameo from a classic Lincoln in one of the ads. For really curious viewers, the automaker is also extending the story to its homepage to explain more about the people McConaughey is meeting. In addition to giving McConaughey and the MKX starring roles, there's A-list talent behind the camera too. Replacing Nicolas Winding Refn from the MKC spots for these is Gus Van Sant, best known for directing Good Will Hunting and Milk, plus recent BMW i8 videos. The new ads make their broadcast debut during college football games on Saturday, September 12 on ABC and re-air during NFL games on the 13th on CBS and Fox. However, you can get an early peek by watching the combined short film above. Let us know in Comments how you think they compare to McConaughey's MKC spots. Collaboration Between McConaughey and Lincoln Evolves in Spots for All-New Lincoln MKX Quiet Luxury, an understated yet compelling experience brought to life by the all-new Lincoln MKX, underpins a new series of television advertisements featuring Matthew McConaughey. All-new Lincoln MKX, representing the latest chapter for the brand, featured in new television advertisements with Matthew McConaughey Acclaimed director Gus Van Sant brings distinct cinematic style to these Lincoln MKX ads, which introduce new characters and storylines. The new spots debut during key college football matchups on Saturday, Sept. 12, on ABC. They can be seen again during NFL games on Sunday, Sept. 13, on CBS and FOX. "What appeals to me about this new series of ads is that while the overall Lincoln message remains consistent, the way it is delivered continues to evolve," said Matthew McConaughey.
Lincoln debuts MKC ads starring Matthew McConaughey
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Lincoln is making the decisive commitment that it wants to improve its brand perception going forward. It can't be cheap to hire A-list talent like Academy Award-winning actor Matthew McConaughey and director Nicolas Winding Refn, best known for Drive, for its new ad campaign for the 2015 MKC crossover, but the company is showing that it's serious about the new vehicle and its future. The first three of these five commercials are just hitting YouTube, and they begin airing on television on September 6.
The Live in Your Moment campaign is all about Lincoln trying to sell not just the MKC to customers but also explain the brand's philosophy. It's one of the oldest luxury automakers around, but hasn't exactly had a glorious history, especially recently. Based on these first ads, we can see that there's a definite focus on philosophizing rather than focusing on the crossover. At times, McConaughey seems just a mustache and a mangled beer can away from reprising his role from True Detective.
The first ad (above) is simply titled Intro and sets the mood and concept for the whole campaign. Bull has McConaughey talking to a longhorn in the middle of a road, and I Just Like It has him explaining his affinity for the brand. Lincoln's full release is available below, and you can view the other ads by flipping through the playlist in the video player above.
