All Original 1973 Lincoln Continental Mark Iv Meticulously Maintained on 2040-cars
Carlsbad, California, United States
|
This car has not been restored but has been meticulously maintained over the years. It is in tremendous shape, runs very strong no problems and everything works. It was purchased and owned by one owner from 1973 until I bought it about 3 months ago. I was amazed at the condition, the chrome is nearly perfect, and easy 9 or 10 rating on it's condition. The engine which is a big 460 V8 starts right up and runs great. The owners son had replaced the tires, radiator, carburetor, transmission, as well as repaired and kept up anything of concern over the years.
The white leather interior looks in pretty good shape though has normal wear for a 1973, the drivers seat however has cracks in the leather. Even though the interior is in good condition, if I were to keep it myself I would throw in nice new pristine white leaner to really make her pop. Everything is power, power seats that slide and tilt power windows power antenna and all of it works great! The Air conditioning, interior lights and even the old 8 track stereo work perfectly. This car was garage kept in California it's entire life. The original owner, a 96 year old woman unfortunately died and her Son sold the car to me. It had 25k original miles and it's condition reflects that. I would think this is one of those Holy Grail classic car finds that a Lincoln enthusiast dreams of coming across except I came across it but I am not a lincoln enthusiast so I just bought it to sell. I ahem had it in my garage and not been driving it other than to keep the engine exercised once a week maybe. I am happy to answer any and all questions so please ask anything you'd like. The only damage I can see it has sustained is a scrape next to the front passenger side bumper and rear passenger side bumper which looks like it was scraped while pulling out of a garage, it's really just paint not real dent or damage to the steel. The Black vinyl top is in pretty nice shape, looks good, the headliner in the interior does have a seam that looks to be ripping and taped. The owners son mentioned he replaced the steering wheel so the one in the car has a crack and is also from a 1974 Lincoln. Other than these minor areas of pretty normal wear the car will really excite you in how great she looks and well she functions. So for all this car people who like to buy old cars and bring them back to glory this one has about everything you would scour the internet searching for all ready to rock which should really put you ahead of the game if you chose to do any restoration at all. |

Matthew McConaughey dusts off his Lincoln Lawyer jacket [w/videos]
Thu, 21 Aug 2014Alright, alright, alright. Easygoing Texan Matthew McConaughey has enjoyed a career renaissance recently with critically acclaimed roles in Dallas Buyers Club and True Detective, and the actor has just signed a multi-year deal with Lincoln to become the luxury brand's spokesperson. The first ads starring McConaughey should hit televisions and the internet soon.
McConaughey's campaign has his pitching starting out with the company's pivotal new 2015 Lincoln MKC compact crossover. "Lincoln is an iconic, American brand and I like where they are heading with their transformation," he said in the announcement of the deal. The appears to be really throwing some money into these ads, too. Not only has it hired A-list talent in front of the camera, Nicolas Winding Refn, best known for Drive, is directing the spots.
Of course, this won't be McConaughey's first noteworthy ride in a Lincoln. Back in 2011, he starred in The Lincoln Lawyer, a legal thriller about at attorney would did business out of a 1980s Town Car. The MKC should certainly prove to be a much better driver than that.
Would a Mustang-based Lincoln look like this?
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Designer Josiah LaCalla has taken a stab at what a Ford Mustang-based Lincoln model might look like with the Continental Mark X1 concept. Make no mistake, Ford's luxury arm has made it abundantly clear that it won't be pursuing any new products outside of volume models, which means a flashy halo grand tourer like the one you see here isn't in the cards. LaColla used the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG as a basis for his creation, which explains the long nose, but we certainly don't mind the idea of a rear-wheel drive Lincoln with a cabin pushed to the aft.
While we're dreaming, there's certainly nothing stopping us from imagining what's under that lengthy hood. We like the idea of the 5.8-liter supercharged V8 from the Shelby GT500 pushing the Mark X1 down the road, but how about something a little more inventive? Something like a high-revving, buttery V12 with enough torque to push the contraption well past 200 miles per hour. Dream a little dream, people.
McConaughey stars in new round of Lincoln ads
Thu, Aug 20 2015Matthew McConaughey's ruminative commercial work with the Lincoln MKC, MKZ, and MKZ Hybrid showed us a side of Lincoln we didn't know existed, and a bunch of spoofs made us laugh about it. Most importantly, though, the partnership worked, leading to a double-digit increase in sales and millions of hits in brand exposure. That's why the actor and the automaker are back together, McConaughey scheduled to return in a new commercial campaign launching September 2 for the 2016 Lincoln MKX. He'll give up the air of cosmopolitan sage, because these ads "dial up the swagger factor" according to Lincoln's group marketing manager John Emmert. Introduced earlier this year at the Detroit Motor Show, the brand put a lot of work into the all-new model, said to be "much improved in how it rides, steers, brakes and looks," offering a more powerful engine, and at least 36 new features including adaptive lighting. Ford's first production implementation of adaptive steering, and Harman's first automobile application of Revel audio will bow with the mid-sized crossover. On top of all that, it's also got that lower price. Emmert said the McConaughey ads will point out "the technology and the beauty of the vehicle." Lincoln will buy time during NFL games as part of the campaign. We have no doubt the anticipation from YouTube and a few celebrity rascals is already high. Related Video:
