1966 Lincoln Continental Convertible
This is the one you've been waiting for! Suicide doors. Classic luxury and muscle combined. This car has everything! Don't hesitate and miss the chance to own your dream car. You don't cant find these cars in this condition. This was top of the line in it's day with power windows, power locks, 8-way power seat , power antenna, power brakes (disk), power steering, A/C and cruise control. Yes, cruise control on a 66... and it works! I restore classics for a living and have sold several on ebay with 100% feedback, but this is different. This is my baby, titled and registered in my name. I never thought I'd let it go. I've had a hundred people ask me to buy it and I've always declined. Well, here's your chance. I drive this car at least a few times a week and it never gives me any problems. It rides like it's floating on a cloud. The 462 cu in engine is super strong, yet surprisingly quiet. They had four mufflers from the factory so you couldn't hear the engine to give it a more luxury feel. When you're cruising with the top down all you hear is the wind and the compliments. If you know anything about these cars, or are looking to buy one, make sure everything works, because it can cost thousands just to get all the windows working, and more for the top. This one has been gone through by an old Lincoln expert. The top goes up and down quickly and quietly for this model. All the power windows go up and down. The switches work even though a couple are missing the tips of the switch as is common. Even the vent windows are power, which always catches people off guard. I installed a nifty remote to control the convertible top from up to 100 yards away. See second video. This is my favorite feature, and it draws a crowd every time I use it. Don't be like everyone else with a Mustang Chevy. Really stand out with this rare classic. I have been lucky enough to own just about every classic you can think of and this one gets far more attention than any other. It was made for cruising so you can actually drive it on the highway and long distances with ease and comfort. The A/C blows ice cold so even here in Florida I'm always comfortable. The heater works as well. It was recently painted an elegant pearl white that is perfect for this style of car. The maroon interior is in exceptionally good condition. All the gauges work as they should. All the lights and blinkers work. The cruise control works. The power seat works as it should. No cracks on the dash. Brand new carpet. All of the chrome is in fantastic condition with the exception of a small section of the rear bumper. All of the stainless trim is in nearly perfect condition, which is extremely rare to find. The vinyl top is in great condition with one small rip in the bottom left corner. The tires have over 80% tread and the wheel covers are in great shape. The radio works, but it's the original so only AM. Like all cars, this one isn't perfect, but it's close enough for me. I've added two videos and as many pictures as I could to represent the car accurately. Since the video I added "gangster white walls" which can be included with the car if the winning bidder wants. All of the videos and pictures were taken last week with my cell phone and were not photoshopped or enhanced in any way. I have set the reserve low and no buy it now, so good luck bidding. This is a very rare opportunity to own a very rare piece of history and a real gem. I'm sure I'm leaving a lot out, so feel free to email me with any questions. I also encourage anyone interested to come see it in person and drive it. Just prepare to fall in love. Speaking of, I reserve the right to end this auction any time because anyone who sees it is going to buy it on the spot. Feel free to call, come by, or email with serious offers. I will not end the auction until cash is in hand. Thanks for looking, and good luck bidding! Thanks for looking, and Good luck! This car is sold as/is where is.

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
Does Lincoln Zephyr trademark mean a return to real names?
Wed, May 25 2016Lincoln's long history includes many legendary names, and despite its short life, Zephyr retains a spot in that pantheon. Perhaps its will return once again: Ford Motor Co. applied to trademark Zephyr on May 11. Trademark filings can have ambiguous meanings, and often they're legal plays to get or keep the rights to a name. But in the last year, we've seen signs Lincoln is looking to use real names on its vehicles again. Obviously, it's keeping Navigator for its flagship sport-utility vehicle with a new model due next year. Reprising Continental for the MKS replacement was also well received. That said, Lincoln still uses the MKX and MKC "names" for its crossovers. Zephyr is a dustier moniker. It was used in the 1930s and '40s on a mid-level model spearheaded by Edsel Ford. The stylishly aerodynamic model was set between the Ford V8 De Luxe and more expensive Lincolns. It returned in 2006 as the Lincoln version of the Ford Fusion before that model was renamed MKZ. Mercury also used Zephyr on its version of the Ford Fairmont in the late 1970s and early '80s. Ford last held a trademark on the Zephyr name in 2013. The filing says Ford seeks to use Zephyr for "motor vehicles and parts and accessories therefor." That could mean a new car — or just parts. Putting the Zephyr badge back on the MKZ is the most likely bet. Meanwhile, Ford also moved to get the Thunderbird trademark on May 11 for the same vehicles and parts purpose, and it filed for the Mustang trademark for shampoo and lotions on May 4. A Lincoln spokesman said, "In the normal course of our business, we file trademarks for names," but had no further information. Related Video:
Lincoln bringing in MKZ Hybrid over rollaway risk
Mon, 30 Dec 2013Federal safety standards require that every new car needs to have the brake depressed in order to shift it out of Park. But the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has found fault in the transmission range sensor on certain examples of the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid, allowing the car to be shifted out of Park without first depressing the brake. The fear is that with this condition, affected vehicles may be unintentionally pulled out of Park, resulting in a possible rollaway. That safety concern has prompted parent Ford Motor Company to issue a recall.
The issue pertains to 7,153 examples of the MKZ Hybrid built between April 26, 2012 and September 24, 2013, covering the 2013 and 2014 model years. As a result, Ford will notify owners to bring their MKZs into their local Lincoln dealer to have the Powertrain Control Module software updated in order to rectify the problem. See the full recall notice below for details.
