1979 Lincoln Mark V Bill Blass Edition on 2040-cars
Jackson, California, United States
You are viewing a beautiful '79 Lincoln Mark V Bill Blass edition. I am the 3rd owner of the car. It only has 31,200 miles. This care is completely ORIGINAL. Everything works on the car except for the clock. The AM/FM 8 track works great but the speakers on the right side do not work. Except for that.....everything works on this car just as installed. The paint is absolutely flawless. It is 100% original. So is the interior. The leather and all of the dash, door panels are just as they were installed from the factory. I bought the car about 2 years ago from the 2nd owner. It was an absolute barn-find. It was covered completely in plastic and had not been driven for a few years. When I got the car I went through it completely. All hoses, belts, fluids brakes, mufflers, bushings were completely replaced and it stands now as a fine automobile that I drive about once a month. I absolutely love this car.......she gets so much attention when I take her out that it is almost embarrassing. I do have documentation to support the mileage on the car,,,,,,it has NOT rolled over. The original owner took off the turbine wheels and replaced them with the true wire wheels that are on the car,,,,,,and let me tell you,,,,,,,I took about 6 hours of cleaning these wheels to get them to look the way they do not.....they are awesome. But now that they are cleaned...it is a snap to keep them that way. This car is absolutely beautiful. The only reason I am considering selling her is because I am relocating from California back to Maryland. If I do not get an acceptable offer to buy her,,,,,I will ship her back to Maryland. I have 2 years of service records to support my claims plus I have the documents to support the mileage. Email me with any questions you might have.......I absolutely LOVE this car and really do NOT want to sell her.....but let's see what happens. Questions....ask me....I'll be honest . I will include as many photos as I can. Thanks folks.....let me know. The car is for sale locally, so it may end early.

Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls

It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
How the demise of Lincoln's Town Car has kick-started a limo revolution
Sun, 30 Dec 2012The deaths of the Ford Crown Victoria and the Lincoln Town Car have meant overhauls of three high-profile American fleets: police, taxi and livery car. Just as police fleets are more open to considering other options and a Nissan van is the new face of the NYC taxi, livery car companies are looking at replacements for the Town Car beyond The Blue Oval. Ford, via Lincoln, has made an MKT Town Car (pictured), but an article in the Detroit News claims "it has failed to win over most of the big limousine companies." The upstarts trying to move in include livery and limo editions of the Cadillac XTS, and livery specifications of the Toyota Avalon and Chrysler 300.
Each of those challengers, however, faces challenges. The Town Car was a workhorse, American, rear-wheel-drive sedan with plenty of rear legroom. Cadillac has been in the livery space before but with decontented models that were about selling the brand, not its luxury. It is taking the opposite approach with the XTS, pointing out that its livery edition is "contented in the upper half of the XTS range." Still, the CEO of Michigan's largest livery company says "it's quite a bit smaller than what we're used to," and he also prefers rear-wheel drive.
The Chrysler 300 is rear-wheel drive, and American, which matters to some companies, but Chrysler hasn't yet revealed the livery package for it. The livery Avalon marks Toyota's first time getting into that business in the US, a natural step after having done so well with taxi clients and with the Town Car out of the way. Still, the livery client is a different to taxi buyers, so the Avalon could face other soft-touch hurdles.
Lincoln to get high-end Harman Revel audio in 2015
Thu, Dec 4 2014"They've never been in autos before, and this is going to be an absolute point of differentiation for us." – Matt VanDyke Lincoln executive Matt VanDyke admits he was "moderately interested" when he heard his brand was considering a partnership with a high-end speaker company. Then he listened to the silky sound they made. "I sat there and I was blown away," he said. That may be overselling the speakers, but they do sound good – we know, we've checked 'em out. Lincoln is betting subtle enhancements – like Harman's Revel audio systems – will help the historic automotive brand appeal to a new generation of buyers. The companies announced a 10-year deal on Wednesday to place Revel speakers in Lincoln cars and trucks beginning in 2015 models. Terms were not disclosed. Though Revel is a new name, Harman has long offered a wide array of car under other brands, including Harman Kardon, Infinity and Lexicon. The partnership launches with the next-generation MKX crossover (concept version shown above), which arrives in showrooms in 2015, and the speakers will be available on other Lincoln models, too. Revel is Harman's top-of-the-line brand that's marketed to audiophiles, and its home systems can easily cost several thousand dollars or more. In Lincolns, passengers will be able to tune their Revel system to three settings: normal stereo sound; "audience," which creates concert-like acoustics; and "on-stage," which is designed to make passengers feel like they're standing among the band. Revel and Lincoln designers also collaborated on the style of the speaker grilles to integrate them into the vehicles, and the uplevel Revel system, called Ultima, will use aluminum covers. "They've never been in autos before, and this is going to be an absolute point of differentiation for us," said VanDyke, Lincoln's global director. Though Revel is a new name to the auto sector, Harman has long offered a wide array of in-car audio and infotainment systems under other brands, including Harman Kardon, Infinity and Lexicon. The Revel partnership is part of Lincoln's efforts to elevate its image and make the brand more relevant to new and younger customers. Lincoln's Black Label line, a customization and service program, will launch at 32 dealerships in six states this year, before expanding nationwide in late 2015. Additionally, Lincoln signed Oscar-winner Matthew McConaughey to star in its advertisements.
