1966 Lincoln Continental Base 7.6l Rare Original Survivor on 2040-cars
Melbourne, Florida, United States
This is a beautiful example of a mostly original and rare 1967 Lincoln Continental Convertible. This car has had one repaint in it's life and it looks new and factory quality. The original interior is in amazing shape for it's age. This originality of the interior is very desired and adds to the character of the vehicle. One of the most important considerations when purchasing these Lincoln convertibles is the body condition. First this is a rust free car and secondly it is razor straight with a top quality paint job. (There is one door that was fixed and re-sprayed due to a garage ding that is slightly off color but that's it.) This car was garage kept it's whole life as evidenced by the fact that the interior is in such great original shape and the dash has no cracks which is extremely rare on these cars. The '60s Lincoln Convertible master and guru (John Cashman) completely went through this beauty restoring the entire complicated top system as well as all of the window systems including the automatic dropdown that work on very few of these. All that work at a cost of over $4000.00. This was completed 6 months ago. He mentioned that it was one of the nicest originals he has worked on and estimated the value at over $30,000. His favorite years are the 1963 and 1966 convertibles.If you are an OVERSEAS BUYER looking for a Lincoln convertible this would be a good choice especially since the entire top system and window system was professionally restored by arguably the best Lincoln technician being John Cashman. Receipts available. This is probably the two most complicated systems of these Lincoln convertibles. I'm not sure about the cost of expert service in other countries for these systems. Besides the entire top and window system this car has had lots of work done in the last 2 years to make it a reliable driver including all new brakes...brand new manifolds , idler arm, fuel system rebuild, new exhaust system,new shocks, new carpet and much more. This car runs great and steers better than any I have previously driven. I am selling this for a friend that does not have an ebay account. He has invested a lot more $ in this car than he is asking so a good value to the lucky buyer. This car comes with a clear North Carolina title and was previously registered in Florida. |

Lincoln Continental with suicide doors sold out, but Lincoln will make more
Mon, Jan 21 2019The Lincoln Continental Coach Door Edition was announced just late last year, but now we have news that it's coming back for a second run of cars. All 80 initially planned have been allocated at this point. Lincoln wouldn't give an exact final price, but says it's somewhere north of $110,000. A fully-loaded Black Label car goes for a bit over $70,000, so it appears to be about a $40,000 premium for the Coach Door Edition. We're told that customers will be notified about their success at grabbing one in February, with shipments commencing over summer. Lincoln originally decided to build 80 of these because it's officially called the "80th Anniversary" car. Now that there will be a second year of production, we reached out to see if Lincoln will continue to produce the same number, or switch it up. Judging by the internet's excitement about this expensive sedan, there's a lot of interest in it. If you missed the reveal the first time around, you can read our full breakdown. To be succinct, it's a normal Black Label Continental that's been stretched by six inches and had suicide doors fitted to it. Sweet. There's also a full flow-through center console for the two rear passengers. Lincoln contracted Cabot Coach Builders to manufacture it; the two have worked together in the past. It's great to see Lincoln will be building more of these flagship-type sedans for the world. One could even make the argument that every new Continental screwed together should look like this, for history's sake. Related video:
Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment
Thu, 20 Mar 2014One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.
Next Lincoln Navigator to drop V8 in favor of V6, but Ford Expedition might get both
Tue, 12 Mar 2013A great many buyers fled from full-size body-on-frame SUVs to car-based crossovers in large measure to save fuel. But that doesn't mean there's still not a buying audience for more traditional truck-based utility vehicles, and those consumers doubtlessly wouldn't mind saving some dollars at the pump, too. According to Motor Trend, those shoppers might be in luck.
That's because the magazine has confirmed that Ford isn't walking away from the full-size SUV segment, and it's poised to do something about its offerings' economy ratings, too. According to MT, global Lincoln director Matt VanDyke has hinted that the next Navigator may drop two cylinders and go with a V6 model - the current model gets just 14 miles per gallon in the city and 20 on the highway from its 5.4-liter V8. The obvious fitment would be Ford's 3.5-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost V6, an engine that has spread like kudzu throughout the rest of the Blue Oval's large vehicle lineup.
Downsized turbocharged engines like Ford's EcoBoost franchise have come under fire as of late for not delivering their EPA fuel economy ratings, but their benefits extend beyond consumption - the 3.5L offers superior power and a better torque curve than the naturally aspirated V8. MT also suggests that Ford's 3.7-liter V6 could form the base engine for the next Navi - it has similar horsepower but a lot less torque than the current 5.4L. That may be less of a problem with the next generation tipped to go on a diet, which could level the playing field somewhat.
