1969 Lincoln Mark Iii 67k Miles 2 Owner on 2040-cars
Raymore, Missouri, United States
You're bidding on a 67,331 mile rock solid 1969 Lincoln Mark III. The vehicle is almost all original, including the paint and interior, and was stored in a heated and cool garage for the last 25 years. The vehicle was in the same small town it's whole life out in Western Kansas until I brought it home to the Kansas City area. I purchased it from the second owners, an elderly couple, who purchased it about 30 years ago from their friend who was the original owner. I have the original documents, registrations and owner's manuals. The title is clear and still in the second owner's name.
Before the previous owner was the retired American Family Insurance Agent in the small town and he wanted to make sure the car was running driving correctly, so he had the car taken to his repair shop of many years where they rebuilt the top half of the engine (heads, intake, carb and tune up). The day I picked the car up I drove it right out of his garage. The only thing I've done to the vehicle thus far was to replace the water pump on the day the pictures were taken and add a set of brand new wheels (Liquid Metal Renegade Polished 75 15x8s) and tires (BF Goodrich Radial T/A P225/60R15) to the vehicle. I have the original wheels and hubcaps which will go with the car. The car has original paint. To really shine the paint needs to buffed and or polished. Of course there's some small door dings and scratches. The interior is all original and almost near perfect! The seats, dash pad, headliner and everything else is original and in incredible condition. The body has almost NOOOOOO rust. The underside is in amazing rust free condition. There's on a small rust spot on the left rear quarter and NOOOOOO where else. The car is way cool to drive and gets a lot of looks. The only thing a buyer would plan on repairing is the original exhaust is leaking. I was going to put a set of dual turbo mufflers for a great sound. Sometimes the head light doors close and sometimes the stay open. I've never had a chance to look at them. My intentions was to license the car and drive it to work several days a weeks during the nice months of the year and maybe out at night once and in awhile, however plans have changed and I really don't have room inside my garage for the car long term. I refuse to park/store the vehicle outside, so I'll try to sell it once otherwise I'll rent a climate controlled storage unit. Anyone is welcome to come view the vehicle prior to the auction ending. If you have any questions please feel free email and or call me at 816.590.7660. Thank you, Chris |

Lincoln and MKZ propose brand reinvention
Mon, 03 Dec 2012Lincoln made a rather assertive statement about the future of its products at the 2012 LA Auto Show. Rather than put any new vehicle on display for the first press day, the American premium brand placed a collection of classic cars from its past on the show floor. For the second day, that assortment was replaced with more than a half-dozen examples of the all-new 2013 MKZ. Following that, Lincoln teased a new ad campaign that was in the works, and it appears we now have the first extended promotional video.
Entitled "The Lincoln Motor Company," the spot acts as more of a mission statement, rather than an ad, featuring (once again) cars from Lincoln's past, as well as certain bits of Americana usually reserved for a Levi's ad. The video concluded with Lincoln reintroducing itself to the world, accompanied by a new name: The Lincoln Motor Company.
The video is likely to be the first of many in a large advertising blitz by the automaker, in concert with the rolling-out of the new MKZ. The sedan was the only new vehicle featured in the video, and Lincoln is betting heavily on this "reinvention" to bring customers in to see its new sedan. We want to know what's next. Scroll down to watch the video.
2020 Lincoln Aviator fuel economy revealed
Tue, Jun 18 2019Ford finally revealed some of the last details, such as fuel economy, for the non-hybrid 2020 Explorer. So it's no surprise that its classier corporate twin, the 2020 Lincoln Aviator, has had its own fuel economy data released by the EPA. Though, like the Explorer, we only have information for the non-hybrid versions. The 2020 Lincoln Aviator has just two engine options, a base turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 with 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, and the same engine coupled to a hybrid system with 450 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. That base engine is the one we have fuel economy numbers for, and it's shared with the Ford Explorer ST, though the ST's version makes an extra 15 pound-feet of torque. With all-wheel drive it gets nearly the same fuel economy as the fast Ford with 17 mpg in the city, 24 on the highway and 20 in combined driving. The Explorer ST gets one more mpg in town. Unlike the Explorer ST, the Aviator does offer rear-wheel drive with this turbocharged V6. This model gets improved fuel economy of 18 in the city, 26 on the highway and 21 in combined driving. This isn't too surprising, since all-wheel-drive vehicles often do a little worse when it comes to fuel economy. We'll be especially curious as to how the Aviator hybrid performs. We doubt it will match the Ford Explorer hybrid, since that crossover relies on a less-powerful naturally aspirated 3.3-liter V6. But it might give the all-wheel-drive four-cylinder Explorer a run for its money, since the rear-drive V6 Aviator is only 1 to 2 mpg behind it. Related Video:
Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion
Thu, 11 Sep 2014We all had to see this coming. Conan O'Brien has released a parody of Matthew McConaughey's new ads for the 2015 Lincoln MKC and remixed them with lines from one of his most critically acclaimed recent roles.
The now much darker commercial probably isn't how Lincoln would prefer the MKC to be marketed, but really in a few of the actual ads, McConaughey already seems moments away from breaking into a full Rustin Cohle from True Detective impression. The cadence and tone of his voice are just so close to that character, especially in the one where he's talking to the bull standing in the middle of the road. It very nearly verges on parody anyway; Conan is just turning all of this up to 11.
It's a little surprising that the writers didn't dig a little deeper into the McConaughey oeuvre for the parody. Maybe McConaughey could have taken the MKC for a party at the Moon Tower from Dazed and Confused. In any case, it's worth a quick watch, so check it out.
