Up for sale is a 1964 Lincoln Continental with suicide doors.  I bought this car with hopes of restoring it but I won't have the time or money to do it the way I want.  My loss is your gain.

I bought this car from a private party in Rhode Island and in RI for vehicles this old you don't need a title so I DO NOT HAVE THE TITLE to go with the car
.  Please check your local laws as to properly titling this vehicle.  I did have the VIN run in MA and it is not stolen or have anything against it.

The body on this car is super straight and the metal is in 90% condition.  I went over the whole car and if it was hit or any bondo on it I couldn't find it!  There are 4 areas on the body where it rotted through and I have pictured them.  The spots with the rot would be very easy to fix and replace as they are on relatively flat areas.  The door jams, engine compartment, roof and doors are near perfect with only very minor rust.  There is also a small amount of rot in the trunk but not bad and easily replaced.  Someone had sprayed the under carriage of the car a while back with undercoating that is just now starting to peel off.  When I put it up on the lift there was only slight surface rust and no rot that I saw.  When I bought the car there was no hood and I hadn't bought one yet so it does not have a hood.  Also it will need a new trunk lid, the one that came with it was in ruff shape but I kept it and will be included with the car to use for parts.

The interior is in decent shape as seen in the pictures.  The dash is in great shape with no cracks or tears and all the original components are still there.  This car has not been canabalized!  The seats have aged and the leather has cracked but is all there.  The door panels are not on the door right now but all four are in the back seat.  ALL CHROME TRIM is there, the only thing not in the picture are the headlight bezels but I do have them somewhere.  ALL GLASS APPEARS TO BE ORIGINAL and in good shape!

The only big down side to this car is the engine.  It's the original engine and appears to have seized at some point.  I had begun taking it apart to fix but had to stop.  I put all engine parts in the trunk for the time being.  The engine was pretty rusty and needs to be rebuilt by someone with more skill than myself.  All the parts that I have will be included with the vehicle.

This car is a great starting point for someone with the means and knowledge to rebuild it or use for a parts car to finish there project!  Don't miss your chance to own a piece of classic American automobile history.

Please email me with any questions prior to the end of the auction.  The car is at my buddy's garage so if additional pictures are needed I will try to get them.  Winning bidder must make payment within 7 days of auction closing and $500 deposit within 48 hours of auction ending.  I will help coordinate with shipping but it is the sellers responsibility to handle the transport of this vehicle.

Thank you for looking and good luck!

Lincoln takes to the Super Bowl with Twitter schizophrenia

Fri, 01 Feb 2013

Lincoln has officially pulled off the wraps on its ad for this year's Super Bowl. As you may recall, the company invited people to send in their tweets to help craft the spot's story line with Jimmy Fallon in the director's chair. The company chose five tweets and ran with them, and the result is, well, about as focused as your average online comment thread. We do get plenty of shots of the all-new Lincoln MKZ, as well as at least one comment on the interior leather's suppleness.
Do we learn a single thing about the brand's new honey? Nope. But there's a turtle crossing, a band of bikers, a German farming student and herd of alpacas. Mostly, the ad just makes us tired. You can check out the full spot before it airs during the big game by watching it below. We'll be busy preparing for the alpacalypse.
AOL Autos' associate editor Peter Bigelow went deeper in his criticism. Have a read: Lincoln's Super Bowl Ad is A Flop.

BMW tops Consumer Reports 2023 Brand Report Card

Thu, Feb 16 2023

Feels like we wrote about Consumer Reports' 2022 Brand Report Car and 10 Top Picks a few weeks ago, but it was last April. So the mag is back with a ranked roster of 32 brands and 10 vehicles in four categories for your debating pleasure. Starting with the brands, last year's top three were Subaru, Mazda and BMW. This year, the Munich crew climbed two spots to win the prize thanks to "Superb road test scores and solid results in CR’s reliability and owner satisfaction surveys." Subaru narrowly fell to second, maintaining its four-year run in the top three. Mini, eighth last year, jumped five spots to get the last step on the podium. The rest of the top 10 were Lexus (up one spot from last year), Honda (down one spot from last year), Toyota (up three), Genesis (up 12), Mazda (down six), Audi (down three) and Kia (up eight). The magazine and testing outfit says its Brand Report Card "[reveals] which automakers are producing the most well-performing, safe, and reliable vehicles based on CRÂ’s independent testing and member surveys," and that "Brands that rise to the top tend to have the most consistent performance across their model lineups." Last year's top 10 had six automakers from Japan, three from Germany (giving Mini credit for England), none from the U.S. or South Korea, and five luxury brands. This year's list counts five makes from Japan, two from Germany because Porsche fell out of the top ten, two from South Korea, still none from the U.S., and four luxury brands. Buick again ranked as the best domestic, dropping to 12th after being 11th last year. The big mover was Lincoln, its 10-place jump up to 16th attributed to better reliability from the Corsair and Nautilus. Tesla's improved overall reliability saw it climb six spots to 17th. Dodge climbed one spot to 15th. Jeep got out of the penalty box in last to come second-to-last. Land Rover fell three places into the penalty spot.  CR's top 10 vehicle models The 10 Top Picks list is practically a new list. Only two holdovers made it to 2023, those being the Subaru Forester and Kia Telluride.
