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.

Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls

Tue, 04 Nov 2014



Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.

Never mind the naysayers; Lincoln is worth saving

Fri, 10 Jan 2014



In the case of Henry Leland, naming his new car brand after the first President he cast a vote for in 1864 seemed a jolly good idea, on paper.
You should always be careful about the name you choose to give your new baby. The power of association can work in many ways, not always positive.

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
