Welcome
to the A 1957 Continental Mark II that will Impress You—and Everyone Else! The hand-built 1957 Continental MK IIs are among the most highly sought after luxury classics. This car is a particularly nice example of this limited production coupe that was Ford’s flagship vehicle and resided in a famed Branson, Missouri museum until it was purchased and re-commissioned four years ago: · Nicely Restored · 368 cid/300 hp engine · Great paint/great interior · Air Conditioning · 1 of 444 built For those who like to decode VINs, there is attached a picture of the VIN plate. That number is C56P3572. An Exceptional Example! · Paint and
Chrome This Mark II underwent a high-quality respray in its original Gray Lucite. Its lustrous finish has a deep shine and looks almost showroom-fresh. The chrome and stainless are in excellent condition and nicely compliment the paint. And, the body and underside of the car appear to be free of rust and/or corrosion.
· Interior The seat upholstery is black leather. The front seat was totally redone and the rear seat is in good condition. The door panels are also in very good condition as is the dash. The headliner is in good condition as is the carpeting.
· Engine The engine is the 368 cubic inch V-8 that was rated at 300 hp for the 1957 model. The engine starts right up and provides ample power for this 5,000 lb. ultra-luxury automobile.
· Transmission The transmission is the Turbo-Drive 3-speed automatic. It shifts properly as befits such a car.
· Comfort and
Safety Systems From the leather seats to the all power components (windows, brakes, seat, steering), this air conditioned Mark II is all that you would expect. A couple of minor items will need attention (license light, instrument lights, radio and driver’s vent window).
An Exceptional Example of one
of Ford’s Iconic Continental Mark II hand built Flagship This Mark II is one of the truly collectible luxury cars made in America. Limited in production, these hand-built cars were so special to Ford Motor Company that they were given an entirely new marque: Continental, that were sold exclusively through Lincoln dealers. This is a great example of that seldom-seen marque that will be equally at home at car shows or the country club. It is also a car that is certain to appreciate due to the quality of the construction, the condition of this particular car and the very low production numbers. Stop by and see this rare car or make an appointment for your inspector and/or banker to examine it.

Feds Probe Power Steering In 938,000 Ford Midsize Cars
Mon, Oct 6 2014U.S. safety regulators are investigating complaints that the power-assisted steering can suddenly fail on three Ford midsize car models. The probe covers 938,000 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars from the 2010 through 2012 model years, as well as the 2010 and 2011 Mercury Milan. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has received 508 complaints alleging that the cars lost power-assisted steering, causing increased steering effort. Four complaints say the problem caused crashes, but no injuries were reported. The agency says in documents posted Monday on its website that in many cases, a warning message appeared as the failure happened. Restarting the car corrected the problem in some cases, but the problem returned in others. The agency says it will check the scope and frequency of a problem. It could seek a recall. Ford says it's cooperating with the probe. Shares of Ford Motor Co. rose 6 cents to $14.65 in morning trading Monday. Its shares are down 14 percent over the past year.

Ford is recalling more Takata airbag-equipped Ford and Lincoln models
Thu, Mar 2 2017The Basics: Takata, the beleaguered airbag supplier at the root of the largest recall in automotive history, has informed Ford of a problem with the airbags in just over 30,000 Ford and Lincoln models. The problem is not related to the non-desiccated ammonium nitrate airbag inflators that plague the other airbags ( including many Fords), meaning there isn't a risk of shrapnel flying out from the units in this particular recall. The Problem: In the event of an accident, the front airbags may only partially inflate, and the airbag may become detached from the module because of misaligned parts. The problem affects 2016 and 2017 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models built at the Oakville Assembly Plant. The issue also affects 2017 Lincoln Continentals that were built at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Injuries/Deaths: In a release, Ford stated that it is not aware of any accidents, injuries, or deaths related to the airbag issue. The Fix: Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag module at no cost. If You Own One: Sit tight and wait for Ford to notify owners. When that happens, take your car to the dealer for a replacement. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

2019 BMW X7 vs luxury SUV rivals: Comparing specs and photos
Wed, Oct 17 2018Today we get our first-ever look at the first-ever 2019 BMW X7 crossover. We've actually already had our first-ever drive in an X7 Prototype. And so, we thought it appropriate to follow that up today with the first-ever X7 comparison of specs between BMW's first-ever three-row crossover with legitimate room for seven and its many high-dollar competitors. On paper, the 2019 X7 definitely seems to most closely align with the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class. Their similar dimensions, interior space, engine choices and price would certainly imply where BMW placed the target when developing X7. We used those same elements to determine three-row vehicles likely to be cross-shopped or that should be cross-shopped. These include the Audi Q7, Land Rover Discovery, Volvo XC90 and Lincoln Navigator. Yes, the latter is a truck-based SUV as opposed to a crossover, but tell that to all the people lining out the door at the local Lincoln emporium. They do not care, and neither shall we. We also included the 2019 BMW X5, which was completely redesigned for this year and therefore not the first-ever. That makes it less appealing? Either way, lining the new X5 up with the SUV that leapfrogs it atop BMW's SUV hierarchy should provide a good idea of just how much more you get by going up a model number. Engines and model lineup Again, the X7 aligns closest with the GLS, offering a base six-cylinder in its xDrive40i model and an upgrade turbo V8 in the xDrive50i. The Mercedes engines have greater output, but the GLS still accelerates slower than the BMW. As the 2019 X5 offers the exact same engines, we would also expect the X7's fuel economy to be superior to the GLS once its estimates are announced. It should be noted, though, that the GLS offers a high-powered AMG model whereas we anticipate the X7 to offer a plug-in hybrid model comparable to the X5 upcoming xDrive45e model. The other luxury SUVs diverge in their engine choices and model lineup. The Audi Q7 offers a base turbocharged four-cylinder, as does the Volvo XC90 in its T5 model, which we left out of the above chart entirely for space reasons. That the Q7 3.0 TFSI supercharged V6 gets the same fuel economy estimates as the four-cylinder is proof positive that engine is purely around for its lower base price.
