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 hijacks Cadillac's 'Dare Greatly' tagline
Tue, Feb 24 2015Talk about comedy - not even 24 hours after Cadillac teased its CT6 while inviting us to "Dare Greatly" during the Oscars telecast, Lincoln was doing the same but on Google. An anonymous tipster informed us the day after the Oscars that typing "dare greatly" into Google returned two ads before the search results. When we checked it over the course of a few hours, the first ad was always for Cadillac and either read, "Cadillac - Dare Greatly - Only those who dare drive the world forward," or, "Cadillac - Dare Greatly - It's not the critic who counts, it's the man in the arena." (On a side note, come on, Cadillac - "the man in the arena?" Well. It's a quote. Suppose that's all right, then.) The second result was for Lincoln and read, "Dare Greatly - It's not about making a statement, it's about doing what you love," with the associated URL being www.lincoln.com/dare+greatly. The first time we clicked it, it went to the Lincoln homepage showing the 2015 MKZ Hybrid. The second time, we got a page saying that the Lincoln site wasn't available; the Lincoln site was fine, the link didn't work. There's no reference to the Google joke at the Lincoln site - this was just about getting eyeballs. The English have the perfect phrase for Lincoln's provocation: "You've got some cheek!" We think it cunning, dastardly, and funny, and there's no doubt it worked - they knew people would flock to search the term. One of our competitors, Autotrader, said that within an hour of the first of four Cadillac spots airing during the Oscars, car searches for Cadillac vehicles climbed 53 percent from pre-Academy Award coverage levels. Searches for Cadillac cars were up 120%, they said. If this is Round One of our homegrown scrappy old-timers going at it, we're all for it.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
Woman keying luxury car caught on tape
Thu, Nov 12 2015Toronto police are on the hunt for a disguised woman who was caught on camera Sunday keying a car. The woman sported a red bandana over her face and baseball cap as she ran up to the Lincoln MKS in a driveway, the Toronto Star reported. She then went to town with a sharp object, gleefully scratching the car's paint job. She runs off after nearly a minute of enthusiastic damage. Police believe the victim and the vandal know each other, since the Lincoln is the only car in the neighborhood she hit. This is also the third time this particular car has been damaged. They suspect this woman is responsible for the previous incidents. Toronto police told the Star that it will likely cost Lincoln owner thousands to have his car repaired. Security cameras are great for catching vandals in the act, though the videos are difficult for any car enthusiast to watch. Take for instance this video from London in April of a man scratching an Aston Martin while pushing a baby stroller. News Source: The Toronto Star Lincoln Videos vandalism scratch
