1966 Lincoln Continental Convertible on 2040-cars
Miami, Florida, United States
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* |

NHTSA, IIHS, and 20 automakers to make auto braking standard by 2022
Thu, Mar 17 2016The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and virtually every automaker in the US domestic market have announced a pact to make automatic emergency braking standard by 2022. Here's the full rundown of companies involved: BMW, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo (not to mention the brands that fall under each automaker's respective umbrella). Like we reported yesterday, AEB will be as ubiquitous in the future as traction and stability control are today. But the thing to note here is that this is not a governmental mandate. It's truly an agreement between automakers and the government, a fact that NHTSA claims will lead to widespread adoption three years sooner than a formal rule. That fact in itself should prevent up to 28,000 crashes and 12,000 injuries. The agreement will come into effect in two waves. For the majority of vehicles on the road – those with gross vehicle weights below 8,500 pounds – AEB will need to be standard equipment by September 1, 2022. Vehicles between 8,501 and 10,000 pounds will have an extra three years to offer AEB. "It's an exciting time for vehicle safety. By proactively making emergency braking systems standard equipment on their vehicles, these 20 automakers will help prevent thousands of crashes and save lives," said Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx said in an official statement. "It's a win for safety and a win for consumers." Read on for the official press release from NHTSA.

Automakers making the commitment are Audi, BMW, FCA US LLC, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Maserati, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan, Porsche, Subaru, Tesla Motors Inc., Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo Car USA.
Cadillac Escalade gets $5,000 discount to ward off Lincoln Navigator
Wed, Nov 8 2017General Motors apparently isn't going to let early good reception for the redesigned Lincoln Navigator steal thunder from its own luxury SUV without a fight. It's offering a $5,000 discount on the purchase or lease of the Cadillac Escalade this month to any buyer who trades in a 1999 or newer Lincoln model, Bloomberg reports. GM spokesman Jim Cain told Bloomberg the incentive is being offered to keep prices competitive for the Escalade. The 2018 Navigator starts at $72,055, compared to $73,995 for the Escalade, but the outgoing version of the Navigator is selling for an average of around $53,000, compared with more than $80,000 on average for the Escalade, he said. The Escalade was the top-selling domestic luxury SUV in October and No. 4 in the segment, according to Motor Intelligence. It far outsold the Navigator, which last saw a refresh in 2015 and a full redesign in 2007. But Ford is hoping to gain back some ground with the new Navigator and updated Expedition, which also trails the Chevrolet Tahoe and Chevy Suburban in its segment. Bloomberg notes that one Morgan Stanley analyst estimates that GM owns a $2 billion annual pretax profit edge in the lucrative luxury sport utility segment. Our recent First Drive review called the new Navigator "far superior to its primary competitor, the Cadillac Escalade."Related Video:
Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.
