This is a fantastic 1947 Lincoln Continental. It was restored by well known Lincoln enthusiast Ron Bloom who has owned the car for more than 40 years. Due to Ron's health the car hasn't been driven much in the last decade but it has been well stored.
Ron Bloom bought this car in 1964 it was his dream car since he was 10 years old, Ron fully restored the car. Engine, transmission, exterior and interior where all refurbished over the following 10 yrs. The car was repainted 10 years ago and then a new cloth top installed Car has all the factory options available at that time including windshield washers. Ron bloom was a board member for the classic car club of America and the Lincoln owners club for many years. He also was best known for his fabulous stainless steel replacement parts manufacturing for classic Lincoln's. A true craftsman. Some locals may recall Dennis Johnson of the Seattle supersonics riding in the back of this Lincoln after the 1979 championship parade in Seattle with 300,000 supporters looking on. The body and chassis are in extremely nice condition. No rust to be found at all. The paint is quite nice with just a few very minor blemishes showing. The glass is all great. The Interior too is in excellent condition. The Red leather seats have just a tiny bit of patina showing. The dash is beautiful. The convertible top and tonneau cover are great. The engine starts easily and the car is quite drivable. It runs great when cold but starts to run a bit rough as it warms up and I suspect the ignition system needs attention. The gauges all work. It has a new battery. There are a few things not working such as horns, wipers, clock probably due to not being used much in recent years. The brakes work great. The gearbox shifts easily and smoothly through all gears. The vacuum powered top goes up and down great. It comes with a clear title, Lincoln manuals and lots of Lincoln club literature. This car is in overall fantastic condition and will likely only need minor tuning and attention to be in extremely usable condition. this classic continental has not been driven for about 8 years. With a new battery, spark plugs and fresh fuel we were able to get it running and driving but would advise new owner to have the car serviced before any long driving adventures. Buyer is responsible for shipping costs and arrangements. The Lincoln can be viewed by appointment in Snohomish WA. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Must be picked up within 30 days. Please feel free to ask any questions. Please watch the video of this car in action: |

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks
Sun, 31 Mar 2013Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.
Ford's struggles in China continue as November sales drop 8 percent
Mon, Dec 11 2017Ford's sales in China fell 8 percent in November from a year ago, following a 5 percent decline in October, the U.S. automaker said on Monday. The firm's sales in the first 11 months of the year totaled 1.06 million vehicles, down 6 percent from the same period a year ago. Ford's China sales growth has lagged behind rivals in the world's top auto market this year, with the carmaker now looking to overhaul its strategy to revive growth in China under new chief executive Jim Hackett. Among other moves, the review of its China operations will likely see Ford focus on segments such as electric cars and electric commercial vans, with China encouraging to help clean up its polluted and congested city centers. Ford is looking to roll out more new-energy vehicles for China and is planning to experiment with a more direct selling approach in a partnership with Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.
