1966 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL 4 DOOR CONVERTIBLE. THE LAST OF THE MOJICANS!!
I bought this car 5 years ago from the second owner in California, which he had in storage for 25 years. This is a true rust free California car. This car is black with a black top and white interior with black stitching. I had this car painted 2 years ago. I'm talking about: doors, hood, trunk, etc everything came off. Sand blasted to the bare metal, everything has been redone except the motor. It has a 462 in excellent working condition with a little over 83,000 original miles, with an automatic transmission. All the chrome was taken off, the bumpers, handles, moldings you name it came off the car to be professionally sand blasted and re chromed. The alternator, starter, battery, radiator, hoses, cables, a/c compressor , have been rebuilt or replaced. The air conditioner condenser that the 1966 Lincoln brings is made of metal. I had it replaced for a new one made of aluminum which makes the air conditioner cool better. I'm in Miami and its hot here in the summer. The interior and top are brand new done by professionals 2 weeks ago, exactly like the factory the door panel stayed the same to keep the original pattern. The tires are white walls which have less than 300 miles on them. When it comes to the top I have changed almost all of the relays and motors that make this incredible top mechanism function. Everything is in perfect working order. The window switches have all been replaced, even the small vent windows work perfectly . I have over $45,000 invested in this car. I can say from 1 to 10 this one is a good 9. It's not a ten because I use the car and it has small nicks and nacks on the paint here and there but very minor. Like any old car convertible when it rains it has small leaks here and there, very small just needs a little adjusting if you've had any antiques before all old cars leak oil here and there. I have spent $$$$ and replaced almost all the seals from the top and windows they have all been ordered from LINCOLN LAND IN LAKE LAND FLORIDA, which specializes on Lincoln's. I have a stack of receipts, you can bring your mechanic before you buy and you could see for yourself what a great running engine this is. I have described and listed this car as best as I could, it has been kept in a warehouse. I had a second radio installed inside the glove box and 4 speakers (1 in each door and the other 2 , 1 on each side) thats the only thing not original. I have seen a lot of Lincoln's on eBay and in the streets and NONE compare to this one. I entered them in 2 car shows, 1 last year, it was a charity event in Miami Coconut Grove Barnacle Park. Out of 75 cars it was voted coolest car and the 2nd was the Art Of Palm Avenue in Hialeah Florida over 250 cars it was voted Best in Show. I could tell you that this car turns heads from young to old, they will look anywhere you go. People love this car, I love this car!!!. A lot of love has been put into it, I have been through a lot to get it to where it is at today. But I have to let it go... my loss, your gain. If this is what you are looking for? AND CAN AFFORD IT?? Im asking $37,500, but will entertain serious offers. If you would like to come see it in person: I'm in Miami. Believe me, it drives like a dream especially on the expressway. "PLEASE NO DREAMERS!!!" "THIS CAR IS SOLD AS IN NO WARRANTIES!!!!" *This car is also for sale locally buyer has the right to end auction early, thanks* |

Lincoln to resurrect old nameplates for China?
Wed, 04 Dec 2013Judging by the success that many luxury automakers are currently experiencing in China, it's no surprise that Lincoln plans to take advantage of the situation by peddling its wares across the Pacific. Lincoln will open its first Chinese dealership next year, but potential buyers there won't be mucking through the same alphabet soup of car names found in American showrooms. USA Today reports that Ford's luxury car division could revert back to legacy names (like Continental and Zephyr) in China while keeping the MK_ names here in North America.
In speaking to Ford exec Jim Farley during the LA Auto Show, USA Today says that Lincoln could switch its naming structure as models are refreshed. Farley didn't confirm that the naming revamp would be a China-only decision, but article leaves little hope that American buyers will get to see the return of classic names anytime soon.
Why would Ford rehash old Lincoln names for China only? Buyers there seem to have a better historical associations with the nameplates than in the US. Chinese also still hold Lincoln in high regard, associating the marque with use by prominent government officials.
Ford Announces Free Brake-Pad Offer If Customers Stop By Dealers
Mon, Aug 4 2014These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers. "We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts. Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1. "This program reflects our commitment to providing customers with an excellent ownership experience regardless of the age of their vehicle," said Frederiek Toney, President of Ford Customer Service, in the company's announcement of the offer.

How the Lincoln Continental Concept almost wasn't
Mon, Mar 30 2015That Lincoln Continental Concept that everyone is so excited about? It almost didn't happen. Speaking at the private reveal event for the concept yesterday, Ford Motor Company CEO Mark Fields revealed that when the design team started working on the vehicle that eventually became the Continental, the designers thought it was just another full-size luxury concept, and were turning in ideas to match. The problem, Fields said, is that this was an important vehicle to get right. "A full-size luxury sedan for a luxury brand is a very important marker that, I think, sets the beat for the brand and it creates a lot of awareness and favorability if you do it right," he said. "As we were designing this concept ... we reviewed with the designers the themes. The first couple of themes the team came with really didn't do it for us because we want to make sure that every vehicle that we bring out with Lincoln moves the brand forwards in a big way. So we went through the first couple of them and we really didn't get that kind of 'oomph' in the pit of our stomach." The team was stuck with an upcoming debut and nothing exciting to show for it, until the past was brought into the present. "In one of the design reviews, we were looking around at everyone and we mentioned, you know what, why don't we call this the Continental Concept? And I have to tell you, the body language was unbelievable in the design showroom. Everybody's head snapped up and you could see everybody's eyes widen and they started nodding and they said, 'now we get it.'" Aside from the Navigator, every vehicle Lincoln currently sells is simply named a trio of letters that start with M and K. Fields knew that the large luxury segment sedan is important for a company like Lincoln, with about 1.8 million units sold last year and an expected growth to around 2 million units by the end of the decade, he said. "When you think about where that growth is coming from, it's still a substantial segment here in the US, it's a very substantial segment and even more substantial segment in China. As a matter of fact, that segment grew by 17 percent last year and China is the largest market for full-size luxury sedans." Given the positive reaction to the Continental Concept thus far, bringing the name back from the dead might be just the thing Lincoln needed.
