For sale is a 1967 Lincoln Continental Convertible. This car is sold as is and the winning bidder assumes all responsibilities. This car was purchased by me on leave from my second tour back in 2005 and has been garage kept since then and to my knowledge, prior to and it's entire life. Due to a new baby in our life I have finally decided to part with this gift to myself for making it out of Iraq. The car was restored prior to my purchase and has roughly ten thousand dollars invested into it, which, to my understanding, largely went to the operation of the convertible mechanism. Currently all parts of that mechanism work, save for one, the hydraulic pump for the rear deck lid. Included in the sale of the vehicle is a brand new pump recently purchased. I am capable of doing many car repairs, but am unwilling to attempt to work on that system for fear of breaking anything. There are a few imperfections throughout on the paint and a tiny piece of the front right trim is missing up near the bumper, and that is visible in the picture of that angle. The AC system also needs to be charged to blow cold air and the engine requires lead additive to run without knocking. Lastly, the rear driver side gas tank convertible top key mechanism is not working. All these imperfections aside, this car, as clearly visible in the included pictures is immaculate and a real head turner and with a little bit of attention to detail could be a trophy winning 100 point show car. The power options on the car all work to include the rear windows that go down slightly upon entering to allow clearance with the top. The doors all line up correctly to new clackers and the body is devoid of rust save for some minor surface patina in a few places underneath. The car also comes equipped with a custom sound system of Boston SL 60 speakers and an SL 80 Equalizer as well as Kenwood Excelon head unit that has an Ipod attachment. I had the sound system professionally installed with careful attention paid to not affecting the original interior in any way, so that if you so desire you can remove the system entirely and bring everything back to stock. The system itself, custom job and components was close to two thousand dollars total but considering the situation with the hydraulic pump I have not in any way included that into the price of the car. The vehicle was recently inspected by Travis' Auto in Suffolk, VA and had a new heater core installed to help with the engine cooling issues, but as with everything else on this car, it is almost fifty years old and prone to temperament. Let these caveats not deter you from the fact that this is a gorgeous, extremely rare car that is truly one of a kind. These cars are iconic, with their "suicide doors" and yacht-like feel. It is a joy to drive, always gets thumbs ups, and with a little bit of work would most certainly win every local car show you bring it to and then some. I am happy to work with the winning buyer to get this car to its finally destination. Please send me any questions or requests for more information and I will answer them as quickly and completely as possible. Good luck!

Lincoln teases a new Continental with suicide doors
Thu, Dec 13 2018Lincoln posted a photograph of its Continental from the 1960s on its social media channels today with a cryptic message to go along with it. Here's the post below: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The last line, "#TBT ... or is it?" sounds like Ford's luxury arm is trying to tell us something about what's to come for its current Continental. If we use Lincoln's post as an opportunity to speculate, one might presume that a Continental with suicide doors is coming our way soon. Beyond planting the idea in our heads, Lincoln doesn't appear to have anything else to say for the time being. Right now, the only car you can buy with suicide doors is a Rolls-Royce, most recently in Wraith form. If Lincoln decides to offer suicide doors again, you can bet the car is going to get some attention. The question would be if a special car like this could draw any of that attention away from Lincoln's SUVs such as the Navigator and new Aviator. We've seen reports that the Continental would not be moving on past this generation, so maybe Lincoln is trying to get as much play out of this car as possible. A more recent report calls it dead after the 2020 model year, meaning that if we do see a suicide-door Continental, it wouldn't be in this world for very long. Lincoln says to "stay tuned" at the end of its post caption, so watch out for Continental news dropping in the near future. We can all hope it's going to be good news ...

2017 Lincoln Continental spied inside and out
Thu, Jul 9 2015Lincoln certainly made us stand up and take notice when it unveiled the Continental concept at the New York Auto Show this past March. Showcars, however, are only worth so much if they never reach production. But as these latest spy shots indicate, Ford's luxury division is hard at work taking the new Conti from show floor to showroom. The team from Dearborn has clearly gone to great lengths to disguise this prototype, wrapping it in a new type of camouflage with trompe l'oeil bulbous-looking shapes to keep us from seeing just how close the production version will keep to (or how far it may stray from) the concept's design. Our spy photographers did, however, manage to snap some shots of the inside through the side glass, and though it's still evidently some ways off from reaching production, some key details give us an idea of what to expect. Look closely and you can make out the buttons for the transmission running down the side of the infotainment screen, just like on other new Lincolns. The chromework appears to have been toned down some from the blinged-out dashboard of the showcar, but it may be too early to say how much shine there will be to the production model. The overall design of the center console looks pretty darn close to the version we saw in New York, though. The Continental is expected to replace the MKS, as Lincoln moves away from alphabetical nomenclature back towards actual nameplates. Assembly is slated to be undertaken in Flat Rock, MI. There are a great many more details yet to be uncovered, but as far as early indications go, it looks like Lincoln is well on its way to making its concept a reality. Related Video:
2020 Lincoln Corsair revealed with baby Aviator looks
Wed, Apr 17 2019NEW YORK — Since Ford has unveiled the new Escape, it only makes sense that Lincoln would reveal its redesigned Escape-based luxury crossover, the 2020 Lincoln Corsair. The new crossover takes the place of the also-Escape-based MKC. Design-wise, the only real giveaway that the Corsair is built off the Escape's front-drive platform is the short stretch between the base of the A-pillars and the front wheels. Otherwise, the Corsair simply looks like a scaled-down Aviator. While not particularly groundbreaking, it's far from a bad choice, as it looks both broad-shouldered and sleek with a big front fascia and gently falling roofline. Even better, the interior clearly takes cues from the bigger Lincoln crossovers and SUVs with a horizontal layout, lots of chrome, and a bit of a midcentury modern feel. The Corsair does get unique touches such as a full-width air vent design, and a center stack that juts out unsupported from the dashboard. It's the inverse of the Aviator and Navigator control stacks. Lincoln's 24-way power adjustable front seats will be available as an option, while manual sliding and reclining rear seats are standard. Lincoln also touts sound-deadening features such as a dual-wall firewall panel and active noise canceling as standard features. Owners will also be able to use their cellphones as keys to access the car and to control functions from afar, storing settings for the infotainment, seats and climate control among other things. A key fob still comes with the car, and if a phone goes dead, the car can still be accessed and started using both the outside keypad and the infotainment touchscreen. Phones can be deactivated remotely, too, in case of it being stolen or lost. With Escape underpinnings come powertrains similar to that crossover. But the Corsair starts its line with the Escape's top-rung engine, a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four making 250 horsepower and 275 pound-feet of torque. It comes with front-wheel drive as standard, but all-wheel drive is available. According to the Corsair's lead engineer, John Jraiche, the all-wheel-drive system can shift 100% of power to the front or rear. It also disengages the rear wheels when not needed for improved efficiency. The other engine announced is a 2.3-liter turbocharged inline-four making 280 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. This engine isn't available on the Escape, and it comes standard with all-wheel drive.
