I have mentioned everything to the best of my knowledge in the description of the car. It's not perfect but a super nice driver and it's clean. I have enjoyed this car but I need to thin out my collection. The Lincoln is all up to date with service. You will need to fix the gas gauge,don't know whay it doesn't work. It has a full tank of premium gas in it right now though. Surprising enough,I keep track of the mileage on the odometer. It is getting around 13 MPG in the city with the 460. I know that doesn't sound great,but I don't drive this everyday. Most 460's get 10 or less.

I have replaced the wipers,new fluids,new battery,oil change,air cleaner and cleaned everything. It comes with a box of extra parts like hard to find moldings,an original 8 track player/stereo from another Mark III,tail light lenses,chrome for the taillights and lots of other small things. The engine bay is spotless(I will add a photo of that tomorrow). It will need a glove box button which you can find here on eBay for not much money. I just have way too many projects and hate to see this car sit here. I want someone who will love it,pamper it and enjoy it. :) I always loved the '71 movie "The French Connection" and every time I drive this car I feel like I'm part of the movie. It's pretty fun. 

This Lincoln will not win you an award right now at a car show but is it car show material? Absolutely. 80 mph in the car feels like you're going 30 and at 80 it's not even breathing hard. It wants to go faster but I don't want to get pulled over. ;) 

I have all of the paperwork and receipts for everything. I have paperwork going back to 1986 on the car,original owner's manual,window sticker,dealer brochure,and Protecto plate. I also have a wiring and vacuum diagram for the new owner in aid of any service or repair down the line if needed. 

If in Washington state,the tabs are current. 

As you will see in pictures,it was photographed in different locations I thought looked neat. Yes,that is me standing next to the car in one of my favorite areas called Browne's Addition. It is a turn key car. You will be able to get in,fire it up and go cruise. 

Now,I am putting my reserve low as to clear my expenses and investment. It's not going to be very high. I am going to sell the car. I just want to break even. Anything else is great and all,but I'm not worried about that. If you are looking at this auction,you know what these are worth and my starting price is a going to be a steal. As I stated,it will need some work but nothing super major. Needs nothing on the drivetrain. I made sure of that. Get in,buckle up and drive it. 

Buyer will be responsible for any costs for shipping if needed. If close,you can drive this home. 

Thank you for looking and feel free to ask any questions if you need to. Thanks a ton and have a great day! :)

Production Lincoln Continental will debut at Detroit Auto Show

Fri, Oct 9 2015

The Lincoln Continental concept that debuted at the 2015 New York Auto Show was an absolute star of the event thanks to its handsome lines and sumptuous interior. At the 2016 Detroit Auto Show, we'll get to see how well those fantastic looks transition to the road, as Lincoln will debut the production version there, according to Car and Driver. A market launch will reportedly come later in the year. The stately styling, including the mesh grille, is expected to move largely unaltered to production, but Lincoln is still being vague about the luxury sedan's mechanical parts. The brand's marketing manager Imran Jalal tells Car and Driver the Continental is based on a front-wheel drive platform but an all-wheel drive version in assured. Based on details from the New York show, it reportedly uses a Lincoln-exclusive 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 for power. There are no plans for a hybrid, either, according to Jalal. Assembly of the Continental is expected to happen at Ford's Flat Rock, MI, factory alongside the Mustang and Fusion. The MKS, which the new Lincoln replaces, is built in Chicago along with several other models. Freeing up the space there, could let the Blue Oval keep up with demand for the Explorer. While the Continental ushers in styling changes for Lincoln, the shift doesn't extend to model names. Contrary to earlier rumors, the brand doesn't intend to abandon the MK model names in the lineup anytime soon, according to Jalal. Related Video:

Five vehicles named Top Safety Pick+ including new Civic, MKZ

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

In an attempt to help push vehicle safety to a higher level, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety created a stricter Top Safety Pick+ rating last year, which incorporates a brutal small overlap test and requires cars to get Good ratings in four out of the five categories (and no less than Acceptable in the fifth). Joining the list of the safest cars of 2013, the 2013 Volvo XC60, Lincoln MKZ, Honda Civic (sedan and coupe) and the 2014 Mazda6 have all received the coveted TSP+ rating.
The Mazda6 and Lincoln MKZ have both been completely redesigned, and both received Acceptable ratings in the small overlap test. The Honda Civic, coming off its emergency refresh for 2013, is the first small car to be subjected to the small overlap test, and IIHS says that one of the car's many upgrades includes a stiffer front structure allowing it to receive Good ratings in all categories. Similarly, the XC60 gets all Good ratings thanks to, according to IIHS, Volvo updating the airbag software allowing the side airbags to inflate during the small overlap test.
The 2014 Subaru Forester has not yet been subjected to the small overlap test, so it must make do with just a Top Safety Pick rating until the IIHS tests small utility vehicles, which is expected to happen later in the spring.

Lincoln bringing in MKZ Hybrid over rollaway risk

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Federal safety standards require that every new car needs to have the brake depressed in order to shift it out of Park. But the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has found fault in the transmission range sensor on certain examples of the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid, allowing the car to be shifted out of Park without first depressing the brake. The fear is that with this condition, affected vehicles may be unintentionally pulled out of Park, resulting in a possible rollaway. That safety concern has prompted parent Ford Motor Company to issue a recall.
The issue pertains to 7,153 examples of the MKZ Hybrid built between April 26, 2012 and September 24, 2013, covering the 2013 and 2014 model years. As a result, Ford will notify owners to bring their MKZs into their local Lincoln dealer to have the Powertrain Control Module software updated in order to rectify the problem. See the full recall notice below for details.
