1941 Lincoln Continental Cabriolet - SUPER RARE AUTOMOBILE as it is Body #401 which is the very LAST 1941 Lincoln Continental EVER manufactured for that model year by Lincoln Motor Cars. The build Sheet shows the car was built on June 13, 1941. The original exterior color from the factory was a beautiful gray. The interior was red leather with a tan convertible top. This Lincoln includes all the parts that are shown in the attached pictures including a rust free front sheet metal pan that is located under the front grills, pair of fender skirts, a transmission for a V-12 engine and a front bumper. I also have the backs of the front seat that are upholstered and is not pictured since I purchased them and they are still in the box that they were shipped in. The front and rear springs of the seats come with the car. The car does dont have the V-12 motor. I have one available at an additional cost if you are interested. Please email me if interested. The floors were repaired at one point but they did not do a very good job. The doors do sag when they are opened. I was told that at one point the car had a Oldsmobile V-8 engine which is no longer in the car. This car does need a TOTAL restoration. However, once restored, this car should be considered priceless for being the last 1941 Lincoln ever built. In 1942 Lincoln changed the body style and only produced a limited number of cars due to the start of the war.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I am more than happy to show you the car. Low reserve price. A $1000.00 deposit is required within 48 hours from the end of the auction. Payment in full within 4 Days. Please do not bid on the car unless you plan on buying the car. Buyer is responsible for transportation. Car is located in Glastonbury, CT.

Lincoln dons the Black Label

Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.

Lincoln to adopt Mini-like personalization strategy?

Fri, 18 Jan 2013

There's no single silver bullet that will cure all that ails the Lincoln brand, and Ford knows that just as surely as we do. Coming out with exciting new models like the well-received MKC crossover counts as several steps in the right direction, assuming of course that the production version is as appealing as the concept just shown at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, but more is needed. According to Jim Farley, executive vice president of Lincoln, one more trick may be "mass customization."
Put another way, Lincoln is considering ways to allow buyers to customize their new vehicles right off the showroom floor, similar to how things are done at Mini, and, to a lesser extent, Scion, where Farley previously served as corporate manager. Imagine, for instance, ordering a new MKC with a large Lincoln insignia embossed into the leather seatbacks, according to Automotive News.
While we're not so sure anybody is all that interested in paying extra for more Lincoln logos, it's a strategy that has proven rather fruitful at Mini. Only time will tell if Ford's erstwhile luxury division will once again be seen as something truly worth reaching for, and if customers are willing to pay a further premium for customization.
