If you demand the best then I have something for your. From my Private Collection is a very rare find. This is a ONE of ONE in existence with these options 1978 Lincoln Continental Williamsburg Limited Edition! A Marti Report takes the options a vehicle has and compares them to all of the others to see how many of your particular vehicles are in existence. Often referred to as a one off car. The report is certified and it did cost about $250 to have this prepared. This is the only one in the world!! My Lincoln was judged at the Lincoln Continental Owners Club (LCOC) National show as a 95.86 point out of 100 show car and won first place. I was even lucky enough to get the judging sheets used to review the car and I will give them to the new owner. I have the factory window sticker showing that in 1978 this car was just about $14,000! Now for the history of this Lincoln. It was a Special Order Lincoln by Betty Arnovitz which included the Williamsburg Limited Edition package and even 4 wheel disk brakes. The second owner purchased the car from 83 year old Betty in 2009. The vehicle was purchased by MJC Classic Cars in Florida who only buys the best of the best Lincolns. My Uncle is a car collector from Pennsylvania that purchased this car from MJC Classic Cars for $11,500 in 2012. My Uncle traded the 1978 Lincoln in on a 1967 250SL Mercedes I had in 2013. He drove it up 300 miles from Pennsylvania to Victor, NY. Back to my Uncle. Upon delivery of the car my Uncle took the 78 Lincoln into a shop he uses and told them to freshen up everything on the car. His bill was just shy of $8,600 and replaced just about everything!! It's no wonder the car received 95.86 points in judging. He is very particular and spent many hours perfecting every detail in his power to make this car the best he could. You can see how I had to have it! The car is amazing in every way! The car floats! The air conditioning is freezing cold. You really feel like you are in 1978 when you are behind the wheel of this car. It smells just as new inside. The leather is factory fresh and spotless!! The paint is brilliant!! The Champaign Valino Coach vinyl top is soft! The motor is so clean and fresh!! Under the car is very clean! The pictures were taken June 17, 2014. The car is in my warehouse and will not move until the new buyer picks it up or has it shipped so it's in the exact same condition as the ad states. No moth ball smell, smoke, mold, must or filth stink. These carpets have never been wet to shampoo. The car should be in a museum. EVERYTHING operates properly! If I had to really get picky I would say that the rear drivers side window is not moving with the regulator that holds the glass as it should. The car has a rebuilt carburetor that may hesitate just a tad. The car is a limited use vehicle and is insured with Hagerty Antique and Classic insurance for a few hundred bucks a year with full coverage. At the end of the pictures it shows the Marti Report, Factory Window Sticker and the $8600 spent in April 2012 at 55,000 miles. No extra fees in my auction. Clean title in hand. This car is a steal!!

How Lincoln could make itself special again
Tue, May 9 2017Things are going better for the Lincoln brand — or, more properly, The Lincoln Motor Company — so far this year, and are likely to continue to do so, comparatively speaking. In the first quarter of 2017, the brand's sales are up 8.7 percent compared with the same period last year. Lincoln delivered 27,083 units in the first quarter. The Continental is certainly a boon, with 3,209 units (almost 12 percent of the total number), something Lincoln didn't have in the first quarter of 2016. Its crossovers, the MKC and MKX, were up 15 and 11.2 percent, respectively, and while the Navigator SUV was down 16.2 percent, the new 2018 model will certainly boost that nameplate. Still, there is undoubtedly a glass — or crystal — ceiling for Lincoln (as well as for Cadillac) that it's not likely to break through regarding total US sales. No matter how you look at it, the US luxury market is dominated by import brands, and there is no reason to think that's going to change. Ever. According to Autodata, for the first quarter of 2017 there were 213,817 luxury vehicles delivered, of which 170,780 were from import brands and 43,037 domestic. While there is a good likelihood that Lincoln will gain some ground, given the lineup extensions that the likes of Mercedes, Audi, BMW, and Lexus are making, as well as the creation of new brands like Genesis and the traction of Tesla, it is going to be all the more challenging for any company to get any significant growth in the luxury category. So growth for Lincoln, yes. Notable growth? No. But there is something the company could do to generate revenue separate from the car and crossover business. It may not make a lot of money in and of itself, but it can provide a distinct edge in the product segment that would cement Lincoln with a unique offering. Kumar Galhorta, president of Lincoln, frequently talks about "experiences." About how the company is working to relieve or eliminate "pain points" from its customers. About how time — or the perceived lack thereof — is something Lincoln is working to address. And it's doing so in a way that gives it a distinctiveness vis-a-vis the competitive set. Lincoln's services are creating a buzz in a way that Matthew McConaughey ads never will. Lincoln is addressing it through service. As in offering pickup and delivery for service appointments for all new 2017 Lincoln models.
Surprise! More Ford and Lincoln cars found with marijuana
Thu, Jul 27 2017Ford is starting to have a serious problem on its hands. Today, ABC 7 in Detroit reported that another batch of Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars were found packed with 227 pounds of marijuana. This is a little over a week after Fords in Ohio were found stuffed with marijuana and only about two months after Fords in Minnesota were found full of weed. All of the cars traveled on train from Mexico to their destination. All in, several thousand pounds and several million dollars worth of marijuana has been discovered. According to the report, Immigration and Customs Enforcement found the cars at the Ford Rail Distribution Facility in Woodhaven, Michigan, just south of Ford's world headquarters in Dearborn. ICE became involved after a Ford employee reported the cars to Woodhaven police. It's unclear when and where the cars were packed with marijuana. With the cars in Minnesota, it's believed that the weed was added after leaving the factory but before being loaded on the train. Spare tires were removed and the space was used to smuggle the marijuana. Related Video:
Lincoln MKC crossover headed for Detroit
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Fresh off the launch of the stylish new MKZ sedan, the newly named Lincoln Motor Company is reportedly preparing for a lineup expansion. According to TheDetroitBureau.com, the first new product joining the Lincoln brand is a small crossover based on the Ford Escape said to be called the MKC. We saw this machine testing a few months ago, and while we were hoping the name might be reserved for a future two-door model or even the diminutive Concept C hatchback, it looks like the "C" will stand for compact crossover instead.
The report also says that this crossover will be making its debut next month at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, so we'll have to wait until then to see what the new model looks like. Unlike the MKX, which is based off the Ford Edge, we would expect there to be a lot more differentiation between the MKC and the Escape like Ford managed to do with the newest Fusion and MKZ.
In addition to the new MKC, the article states new MKS and Navigator designs are expected to debut by 2014.
