Richfield, North Carolina, United States

Offered for your consideration is a 1974 Lincoln Mark IV personal luxury coupe. This is a low-mileage North Carolina car that needs very little to made into really nice ride. I am selling this car for a friend of mine who does not do the internet. THIS IS NOT MY CAR, and I can answer very few questions for you. See below for the contact information of the owner who will be glad to speak with you almost any time. Many cars on Ebay look better on the computer than they do in person. This car is just the opposite pictures do not do it justice. The original silver paint is faded. All the chrome trim has been removed and parts have been spot-primed to prevent rust. Missing chrome is in the trunk, which has no rust I am told. The body is incredibly straight with no dents or dings. The only rust is bubbling under the vinyl top (see photo). The top looks great. There are two plugged holes on top of the left rear fender where radio antennae once sat proudly (remember the 1970s? The CB craze? Apparently the first owner of this car was enamored with the fad, 10-4!). The car does run and yard drives, but I would not consider it roadworthy. As you can see by the photo of the last NC inspection, this car has not been on the road since 2002. Tires do not look very weathered. It does have a good battery. The interior is the real strong point of this car! During storage, it has had sheets and towels over the dash, real parcel shelf and seat cushions, and sun shades blocking all the windows (I had to move these to take pictures, as you can see in the photos). The result is that the interior is remarkable! There are no cracks or discoloration on the dash or rear inside panels, the headliner is unblemished, and the seat cushions red velour, no less! are not sun damaged or torn anywhere I could see. Carpet looks great and there are no signs of wear there or on the pedals. As you can see from the photos of the dash and instrumentation, this car shows 52,000 miles, and I have no doubt its probably correct miles (I have no documentation to prove this, however!). The car has the very rare (for 1974) factory AM/FM cassette player, plus all the usual bells and whistles. I have no idea if they work, but everything is present to make them work. The inside door panels are off the car and in the garage (they are perfect as well), because the previous owner was trying to get the power windows to work. (They appear to be stuck, but the motors try to work). This car needs the windows fixed, a good tune-up, and a paint job to once again be the head-turner it was 4 decades ago. The car certainly deserves the attention! Those of you in northern portions of the country who love these old land barges will never find one in your neck of the woods with this much potential. QUESTIONS? I know you have them! Call the owner, Joe Widmeyer, at 980-581-0732, and he will be glad to talk to you. This car has a clear, clean title ready to go. Local pick-up only. Will be glad to assist shippers in loading the car. Sold as-is, where is, with no warranty expressed or implied. Sold with a modest reserve, so bid to own it! |

Ford launches pair of recalls affecting fullsize sedans and Transit Connect van
Wed, Jan 28 2015Ford has announced a pair of pretty significant recalls affecting the 2010-2013 Ford Taurus and Police Interceptor, as well as their platform-mate, the Lincoln MKS. A separate recall covers the 2014 Transit Connect. The fullsize sedans include 205,000 vehicles built at Chicago Assembly over a variety of timeframes, ranging between December 1, 2009 and November 30, 2012. The vehicles, 194,889 of which were sold in the United States, have an issue with the spring controls on the interior door handles that could cause the door to open in a side-impact crash. The Transit Connect recall, meanwhile, includes 16,100 vans built between November 6, 2013 and September 20,2014 at the company's Valencia, Spain factory. In these vehicles, the seatbelt fasteners may not have been tightened properly, which could cause them to loosen over time, a condition that's obviously bad news in the event of a crash. Ford says it is not aware of any accidents, injuries or crashes in either recall. Owners will, of course, be notified and asked to report in for inspections and if necessary, free replacements. Scroll down for the full press release from Ford, which includes the complete breakdown of dates during which the affected sedans were built in Chicago. JAN 28, 2015 | DEARBORN, MICH. FORD ISSUES TWO SAFETY RECALLS Ford is issuing two safety recalls. No accidents or injuries are attributed to either of these conditions. Details are as follows: Ford issues safety recall for certain 2010-2013 Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS and Ford Police Interceptor sedans for interior door handle issue Ford is issuing a safety recall for approximately 205,000 2010-2013 Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS and Ford Police Interceptor sedans due to an issue with the spring that controls the interior door handles. If the spring is unseated, the door may become unlatched in a side-impact crash, increasing the risk of injury. Ford is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this condition. Affected vehicles include certain 2010-2013 Ford Taurus vehicles built Dec. 1, 2009 to July 31, 2010 and Feb. 1, 2011 to Nov. 30, 2012 at Chicago Assembly Plant; certain 2010-2013 Lincoln MKS vehicles built June 2, 2011 to Oct. 31, 2011 at Chicago Assembly Plant; and certain 2010-2013 Ford Police Interceptor sedans built Dec. 1, 2009 to July 31, 2010 and Feb. 1, 2011 to Nov. 30, 2012 at Chicago Assembly Plant.
2020 Lincoln Corsair will be revealed at the New York Auto Show
Wed, Mar 27 2019It's official, the 2020 Lincoln Corsair will be revealed at the New York Auto Show this April. To go along with the announcement is a teaser video that, well, doesn't reveal much of anything except the crossover's name prominently displayed on the front fender. But we know a fair bit about the crossover from spy shots and prior announcements. The Corsair is the successor to the MKC, Lincoln's smallest crossover, which is also based on the Ford Escape. We expect that it will continue to be based on the Escape, albeit the completely redesigned one that hasn't yet been revealed. That also means powertrains will probably be shared, but the Lincoln might get one or two model-specific powertrains like with the Lincoln Aviator. Reportedly, the new Corsair will feature turbocharged 2.0-liter and 2.3-liter four-cylinder engines along with a plug-in hybrid. Spy shots have revealed that the Corsair will have styling closely related to that of the larger Aviator. That means a floating roof, more broad-shouldered nose, and large amounts of glass. The inside is also inspired by the Aviator and Navigator and features piano-key shift buttons, a low, wide dash and a healthy amount of chrome. 2020 Lincoln Corsair spied View 16 Photos
Ford announces two recalls, 442k vehicles affected in North America
Wed, May 27 2015Ford is announcing two recalls for North American that affect a total of 442,300 vehicles and multiple model lines. The larger campaign covers the possibility of electric power steering systems that can fail in the 2011-2013 Ford Flex, Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and MKT; the 2011-2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ; and the 2011 Mercury Milan. This recall affects 422,814 vehicles in North America, including 393,622 in the United States, 25,195 in Canada, and 3,997 in Mexico. According to the company, an intermittent electrical connection can cause the power steering to cut out, although manual steering would still work. Ford knows of four minor accidents from this issue, but there are no injuries. Depending on trouble codes from the vehicle, dealers will either upgrade software for the power steering control module or replace the steering gear. The second recall covers 19,486 examples of the 2015 Ford Mustang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a production date between February 14, 2014, and February 10, 2015 at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Specifically, there are 19,095 of these in the US and 391 in Canada. These pony cars can show elevated underbody temperatures, which can lead to degradation of the fuel tank, fuel vapor lines, and parking brake cable seals. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires from this, though. To fix things, dealers will install a better-insulated fuel tank shield, add thermal patches around the tank and parking brake cable, and put thermal wraps around the fuel vapor lines. You can read the specific build dates and locations for the models affected by the power steering issue in Ford's press release below the video.
