1966 Lincoln Continental Base 7.6l on 2040-cars
Cape Coral, Florida, United States
This is a true barn find! This car was originally a California car, no rest, extremely solid chassis. Car was purchased by a Michigan collector in the late 70's and has spent the last 30+ years stored with his collection. It was purchased by the current owner and transported to SW Florida where a painstaking mechanical restoration was performed over a 6 month period. The body, paint, and interior appears as we purchased it. At some point in the past the exterior color was changed to the current Black as seen. This car shows and drives excellent. It does have some dings and scratches (minor) as any 48 year old vehicle should have. The current owner has taken the time to make sure all mechanical items were of sound condition and could be driven now as a daily driver. The following items have been replaced, rebuilt, or refurbished: Original 462 C1 V-8 has had new heads including valve job, manifolds and water pump replaced. Fuel system has been epoxy coated with new fuel lines and new Elderbrock carburetor, mechanical fuel pump as well as aux, electric fuel pump installed. Brake system has had complete brake job, rebuild of all components including front calibers. Single stage master cylinder has been replaced with duel stage including proportioning valve and new brake lines. Brake booster has also been replaced. Steering has had the steering box rebuilt and resealed including new power steering lines. Suspension has had ball joints and pitman replaced. Exhaust system has been replaced with a custom 2 1/2" dual Flowmaster system (this sounds great!) Electrical systems include many new switches, starter, wiring and horns etc. Air conditioning system has been gone through and blows ice cold. New 20" Boss wheels with new rubber as shown in photo's (original wheels and hub caps). This car is fully equipped and fun to drive. Options included on the vehicle, PW Steering, Brakes, Automatic, Power windows, Power locks (non functioning), 6 way Power seat, AC, intermittent wipers, Original AM Stereo 8 track, Power antenna (still works!). This car is amazing to drive and gets looks wherever it goes. A real conversation piece!

Lincoln reveals MKC compact crossover ahead of LA debut [w/video]
Wed, 13 Nov 2013It used to be that if you wanted a luxury SUV, you had to go big. Just look at the first high-riders released by some of the major luxury automakers - Audi Q7, Cadillac Escalade, Lexus LX - and you'll see what we mean. But since 2009 the small premium crossover segment has grown a whopping 200 percent, so it's no surprise that each has followed up with smaller luxury crossovers. And this is the latest.
At the other end of the utility spectrum from the Navigator, the new Lincoln MKC is based on the Ford Escape (much as the old pseudo-premium Mercury Mariner was), but completely rebodied and luxed up to put it in another league. Although we're still not sold on Lincoln's family fascia, the grille treatment on the MKC is certainly one of the better variations on the theme to date. The Dart-like rear lights dominate the wrap-around tailgate, and the overall shape looks taut and upscale. The same can be said of the dynamically-designed interior, taking the concept revealed in Detroit earlier this year to production fairly seamlessly.
Power will come from a choice of EcoBoost four-cylinder engines with turbocharging and direct injection: a 2.0-liter with 240 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque, or a slightly punchier new 2.3-liter with 275 hp and 300 lb-ft. Lincoln didn't disclose what transmission they'll be mated to, but did note that the MKC carries the brand's "signature" push-button gear shifter. It comes standard in front drive, but buyers who upgrade to all-wheel drive (or tick the right box) will also benefit from a new adaptive suspension Lincoln calls Continuously Controlled Damping. Other features include an approach-detection system that lights the car up and projects a Lincoln "welcome mat" on the pavement when you get close to the car, and a "bread-crumbing" feature that lets you track where your vehicle has been.
Lincoln takes to the Super Bowl with Twitter schizophrenia
Fri, 01 Feb 2013Lincoln 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.
Lincoln Chauffeur service will drive you around and do your shopping
Wed, Apr 12 2017Lincoln is launching a unique service in Miami this year called Lincoln Chauffeur, and it does exactly what you'd expect. Any Lincoln owner can request someone via an app to come to their house and drive him or her wherever they'd like. That driver will then drive the car back. Lincoln pointed out this will allow other household members to use the car, and even helps avoid having to pay for parking when going to the airport. A representative said that a driver could be sent to a bar or restaurant to pick up a car left in favor of a cab after drinking. In addition to driving you to a location, the driver can also go and fill up your Lincoln with fuel and run other errands. Need some groceries? Your Lincoln driver can do that. And the Lincoln drivers are employed and vetted by Lincoln. If you find a driver you like, you can also request that person and Lincoln will try to accommodate your request. The service is currently in the pilot stage and only available in Miami. The next city that will get access to the service is San Diego. However, the plan is to continue expanding. It's also available for all Lincoln owners, new and old, not just members of Lincoln Black Label. Buyers of any new Lincoln will be given the equivalent of eight hours free in the service. This is a significant perk, since Lincoln said the estimated cost is $30 per hour of use at the current pilot pricing. Related Video:
