1973 Lincoln Continental Coupe Custom Beauty With 24" Rims That Match on 2040-cars
Rockford, Illinois, United States
The "Green Envy" ~ nothing pains me more than to let her go. A real original car with lots of custom touches. This car is From Texas and has never seen a salty road. I had it shipped to me 10 years ago and never take it out in winter. The 460 V8 sounds good with the dual exhaust... the car looks like no other I have seen. I get more compliments on this car than more people do in their top dollar sports car. Everyone is a fan, old and young. 24" rims purchased last year and had them painted custom to match. I do not drive it often and they still are like new. the chrome trim shines to compliment the large rims that fit this huge car perfectly. The hub caps never did this car it's justice. It does have a working alarm and a locking gas cap. Electric bench seat works. Has a CD player that actually is a DVD player with a drop down screen. It also plays CDs of course. There is an outlet to plug in A/C power... I did at one point have a PS2 in the glove box hooked up, easy to do... Nice dash with lots of detail. Old cars are the best when it comes to details. There are a couple light scratches that should buff out, I have many pics but you really cant even see them because they are not deep- very light. The drivers side window is not working with the motor but the motor does work. someone just needs to take the panel off and figure it out. I never drive in bad weather so it really does not matter- you can lift the window by hand and it will stay put however high or low you put it. I had the front bumper rechromed and remounted and it did scuff the rubberish thing that goes under it a bit, no one ever notices it (there are pics) oh and a tear in the headliner in the rear. material is there im sure it could be sewn or touched up (in the pics) Power locks are not working -- just trying to point out the few minor flaws. I had all the trim that surrounds the taillights painted green to match the car rather than the black that comes stock on all of them no matter the color. New top because the old one was white and did not match... basically the pics say it all. Look them over. A very impressive looking car. The interior is not mint but is original and in very good condition. I can't think up anything else at the moment good or bad. This is a big beautiful car! I have described this car well- any questions just ask. I can assure you that I love this car and will hate to see it go. I just never get to enjoy it and always have to pay for storage in the winter and it takes garage space and all else that goes with having a toy like this. Trust me I will lose money on this sale.

Lincoln Continental prototype breaks down, requires a tow
Wed, Dec 2 2015Sometimes, cars break. Sometimes, said cars happen to be prototypes covered in camouflage. And sometimes, spy photographers are on hand to capture the sad sight. Such is the case here, as our trusty long-lenses have captured images of a stricken Lincoln Continental getting a tow back the shop. It's not clear what happened with the wounded Continental, but its unfortunate breakdown has given us a great look at the car's sprawling glass roof. Like the current MKZ, it looks like the Conti's panoramic roof can slide back, although we doubt it will cover up any element of the rear window, like its smaller sibling. And unlike our previous round of spy photos, this latest gallery gives us a look at a rather substantial set of integrated exhaust tips (i.e. fakes that have been fitted directly to the rear bumper cover). We can also spy a bit of the interior, although it's nowhere near as good as our last round of images. These shots do, however, show off a full roll cage and a fire extinguisher, but we wouldn't count on those being offered with the production model. Their presence here, though, leads us to believe that the car in question is probably some kind of vehicle dynamics tester. Look for a full introduction of the all-new Continental next month, when it debuts at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Related Video:
Lincoln MKC configurator comes alive
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Lincoln has already announced most of the trim level and option pricing for its upcoming 2015 MKC due out this summer, and now it has launched a configurator allowing prospective buyers to get a better idea of how this new model will stack up against other compact luxury crossovers. We already knew that the MKC will have a starting price of $33,995, but now we know that its price includes a destination charge of $895.
Models equipped with the base 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine come standard with the Premiere package - $33,100 for front-wheel drive and $35,595 for all-wheel drive. Both models offer equipment upgrades from the Select and Reserve packages. The $3,230 Select package adds features like leather seats, power passenger seat, folding and heated door mirrors and painted 18-inch wheels, while the pricier $6,935 Reserve package adds in heated and cooled front seats, panoramic roof, hands-free liftgate, two-tone wheels and an embedded modem (providing features such as remote lock and unlock, vehicle finder and pre-conditioning).
Opting for the new 2.3-liter EcoBoost inline-four raises the base price to $39,965, and it comes standard with all-wheel drive and all of the equipment in the Select package; the Reserve package is still optional. All models can be further optioned up with the $2,235 Technology Package (adding adaptive cruise, active park assist and lane keeping system) and the $580 Climate Package (heated rear seats and steering wheel, auto high beams and rain-sensing wipers). Checking all the options, a fully loaded 2015 MKC with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost will have a total MSRP of $47,715.
2017 Lincoln Continental: Was this mic-drop moment just a big flop?
Thu, Jan 21 2016The Lincoln Continental may have been our fifth-place pick for Best In Show at this year's Detroit Auto Show, but it's probably the one we argued about the most. In fact, we're still talking about it. And we'll no doubt be discussing it long after we finally get to drive the new sedan later this year. We do this with lots of cars, all the time. The Continental is an especially important, high-profile car right now. It has the task of being a torch-holder for the struggling-to-run Lincoln brand, and that's a tough job these days. But did Lincoln do right by its Continental name? Did its Detroit showcar stop us in our tracks, or were we left feeling cold? In an effort to show you our full discussion, we're trying something different. About a week after the Detroit Auto Show press days concluded, Autoblog's Jonathon Ramsey sent an email around to some editors about the Continental to open a discussion. It got heated, and fast. And while we considered summarizing it, we decided to instead post the whole, largely unedited (adjusted for typos and swear words) chain. From: Jonathon Ramsey To: Autoblog Team Does anyone else think it's a problem that the new Continental looks 85 percent like the MKZ? And another 10 percent of it looks like a Jaguar and a Bentley? Because I think Lincoln screwed the pooch. The German Three plus Porsche can make cars that look alike – they've earned the right, even if I'd rather they didn't. The MKZ looks like a car for regional sales reps. Lincoln broke the glass in case of emergency, grabbed the Continental name, then put it on a car that looks a lot like that sales-rep car, but one for regional VPs. Do we really think this can work? Because I don't. From: Steven Ewing To: Autoblog Team Personally, I'm pretty disappointed in the final execution of Continental. I'm glad Lincoln isn't obsessed with chasing the Germans, but at this point, it's not even chasing Cadillac. I think that introducing the new front end and TTV6 engine on the MKZ before the Continental was a huge mistake. And while I have high hopes for the Conti from a comfort/driving standpoint, my gut instinct is that it's going to be more "better than the MKS" than "best American luxury sedan." Introducing the new front end and TTV6 engine on the MKZ before the Continental was a huge mistake.
