I am selling a big beautiful 1974 Lincoln Continental Mark IV. The car is white, with the brown vinyl top. The car is a coupe, has a automatic transmission and the big 460 cubic inch (7.5 L) Ford Big Block engine. The engine runs very strong and sounds great. All four tires are brand new Hankook white walls which look great on the car. The front shocks are brand new as well, giving this big car a super smooth ride.

The U-Joint connection between the drive-shaft and the transmission recently broke, and will need to be repaired before the car can be driven anywhere.

The interior has been recently restored and has big beautiful new leather seats, a new carpet, and a new headliner. The top of the dash has also been restored. These interior components are in what is basically brand new condition, and like any Lincoln, they are big and extremely comfortable. The steering wheel still needs to be restored, but the horn does work. So no safety concerns with this big girl.

The vehicle electronics work very well, especially considering the age of this car. The headlights, tail lights, and turn signals work all the way around. The high beams work, and the "Auto-Dimming" feature that originally came with this car (automatically dims headlights when opposing traffic comes towards you) still works! The controls for the cruise control are missing from the steering wheel, so I'm not sure if the cruise would function or not. The two front huge power windows still go up and down with no problem. The tiny rear windows do not go down. The big power seats still work, as does the power antenna. The stereo looks like it was replaced sometime in the 1990's... as there is a tape deck present. The stereo does not work, so its ready for you to install your own replacement stereo.

The body is in very good shape. I'm assuming the car was repainted sometime in the last 10 years or so. It does have some tiny scratches here and there, but no dents or obvious damage. There is a small quarter sized section of damaged paint in the middle of the hood that is starting to rust. The frame is very solid.

The trunk is HUGE, and comes with a full size spare tire.

Please check out the pictures and let me know if you have any questions.

I have a clear title for the car.

Feds Probe Power Steering In 938,000 Ford Midsize Cars

Mon, Oct 6 2014

U.S. safety regulators are investigating complaints that the power-assisted steering can suddenly fail on three Ford midsize car models. The probe covers 938,000 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars from the 2010 through 2012 model years, as well as the 2010 and 2011 Mercury Milan. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has received 508 complaints alleging that the cars lost power-assisted steering, causing increased steering effort. Four complaints say the problem caused crashes, but no injuries were reported. The agency says in documents posted Monday on its website that in many cases, a warning message appeared as the failure happened. Restarting the car corrected the problem in some cases, but the problem returned in others. The agency says it will check the scope and frequency of a problem. It could seek a recall. Ford says it's cooperating with the probe. Shares of Ford Motor Co. rose 6 cents to $14.65 in morning trading Monday. Its shares are down 14 percent over the past year.

Lincoln 'not true luxury' yet, says Ford design chief

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

Lincoln is "not true luxury," according to Ford's design boss, J Mays. His statements come from a story in The Detroit News that saw candid language on the issues facing Ford's troubled premium brand. Notably, there's a need for a strong character, with Mays saying, "Every brand needs to have a DNA and a unique selling point and things in the vehicle that make you think, 'That's that particular brand.'"
With a range of rebadged Fords, it's not hard to see why that DNA is missing. Mays hinted that a full recovery for Lincoln will be a ten-year process, that's been kicked off with the MKZ sedan. While that car is still largely a Ford Fusion under its extremely pretty wrapper, it's the first Lincoln in some time to inject its own unique take both through the exterior styling and through interior features, such as the vertical, pushbutton gear selection.
Some analysts weren't so certain about Mays' 10-year estimate. Jim Hall of 2953 Analytics thinks it'll be more like 30 years before Lincoln can show a true return to form. The issue, as Hall explains it, is that, "luxury has a degree of exclusivity," that Lincoln just doesn't have. Michelle Krebs from Edmunds adds, "it's definitely a wanna-be luxury brand," comparing the troubled American brand with Infiniti and Acura, two other brands that have struggled to find their place in the luxury market.
