1978 Lincoln Continental Town Coupe Super Low Mile Original on 2040-cars
Weirton, West Virginia, United States
I'm helping a friend sell this 1978 Lincoln Town Coupe. It belonged to her husband who passed away. He was the original owner, the original bill of sale is included. This car has just under 13,725 original miles. It has always been garage kept and is completely RUST FREE. Beautiful Tan paint/vinyl top on Tan leather interior (The actual color is called Light Champagne). The Interior is in perfect condition. The rear seat belts still have the factory plastic sleeves on them. It is equipped with the factory AM-FM-8 Track player and a few 8 track tapes are included. The trunk is spotless. The exterior is excellent, way above average, but not perfect.There are a couple of waves in the hood, as if someone had laid something on it, but I just couldn't seem to be able to get them to show in the photos. There is a shallow ding in the drivers door.(see picture) I would say that both of these issues could be easily remedied with the "paintless dent removal" techniques that are commonly used. I found a touch up mark that was made with a brush on the passenger quarter panel above the wheel opening.(you can just make it out in the picture.) Other than that the original paint is in excellent condition. A good detailing would make this a fantastic car. The front bumper has a few scratches and there would likely be some very light pitting in the front and rear bumpers after they are polished but I don't feel they warrant rechroming. The car sat unused for a few years but all it needed was fresh gas and a battery and it now purrs like a kitten. We gave it a quick cleaning but, as I mentioned, a good detailing would go a long way. The last Lincoln that was in this condition range sold for over $20,000 on Ebay. This one is starting at a very reasonable $7500 with NO RESERVE. The succesful bidder should send a $500 PayPal deposit within 24 hours. The balance can be paid by cash, certified bank check or a bank transfer. IF YOU ARE NOT SATISFIED WITH THIS VEHICLE ON PICK-UP, YOUR PURCHASE PRICE WILL BE REFUNDED. You can drive it home or we will work with YOUR SHIPPER.

Weekly Recap: Racing legend Jim Hall explains Chevy's futuristic Chaparral concept
Sat, Nov 22 2014"I said our cars are built to be winners." – Jim Hall Racing legend Jim Hall never thought he'd be a video game consultant, but when Chevrolet asked for his advice to create a futuristic Chaparral for the Vision Gran Turismo series, he was eager to help. He reviewed early sketches and suggested some changes that made it onto the concept, including the addition of a camera that's mounted onto a mast over the cabin to aid the driver. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was revealed this week at the Los Angeles Auto Show and will be part of a downloadable update for PlayStation 3's Gran Turismo 6 in December. Theoretically, at least, it uses a laser-beam propulsion system and an air-powered generator to produce 900 horsepower in the video game. It's capable of sprinting to 60 miles per hour in 1.5 seconds en route to a top speed of 240 mph. Those gaudy performance specs – even in the virtual world – came at Hall's urging. "I said our cars are built to be winners," Hall told Autoblog on the floor of the Los Angeles show. The 79-year-old drove Lotus racecars in Formula One before launching the successful Chaparral Cars in the 1960s. Like his innovative Can-Am racers, the Vision Gran Turismo project has an eye toward the future. It also introduces the iconic Chaparral name to a new generation of fans, and hopefully, Hall says, gets them excited about engineering and design. "It emulates what we did in the '60s," he said. And what they did back then still resonates. Chaparral Racing and Chevy partnered more than 45 years ago for development work on the composite monocoque chassis, lightweight alloy powertrains, automatic gearboxes and active aerodynamics. "He [Hall] walked right back into this and was able to apply thinkings and learnings," said Clay Dean, General Motors executive director of advanced design. The Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept was created at GM's North Hollywood advanced design studio, and it will be on display at the show through November.

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
