1956 Continental Mark II White with White/Blue Interior! Over $60K invested!, US $35,000.00, image 1

1956 Continental Mark II For Sale. Excellent Driver Car - not a show car by any means, but a great car which presents itself very well and draws a crowd wherever it goes.

I have a 3 inch binder full of receipts for work done on the car - over $43,000.00 worth of receipts. These cars are not cheap to fix or restore, so best to get one that has had most of the work done on it. This car has had a LOT of little things done to it, which would nickel and dime you to death on a car needing a restoration. Chrome work is excellent, hubcaps excellent, as is most of the car. Underside of car is very solid and rust free, and has not been undercoated or caked over to cover any rust issues - car has been a Florida and Georgia car, and is very solid.

Original Town and Country radio has been converted to am/fm - maintaining the original look. Factory A/C car - blows cool sometimes, but not for long so it will need some attention. Car drives great, and I try to take it every month to a show 150+ miles round trip from me to stretch her legs. Car is driven weekly to keep all fluids circulating - it is leaking some oil when parked. Lot of work has been done on this car, but like most old cars, it will always need a thing or two.

Paint is about 15 years old and is starting to show some wear/cracks in spots, but everyone tells me she still looks beautiful. Panels in front will need to be re-aligned (this is a very common issue with these cars), but still looks good. Driver door swung open on me taking a sharp right turn while going downhill (I didn't close the door all the way), and broke the door stopper and the door creased the front fender, so that will need to be repaired - could possibly be popped back out. I still take it to shows like this, and being white it does not show too much until I point it out to people. I have provided MANY MANY detailed, close up photos below for full disclosure, so please allow them to load.

This is just a great looking Continental Mark II which you will be proud to own - nothing quite like a white Continental Mark II to show her beautiful body lines. I might consider trades - never know - I traded my Ferrari for this car several years back, so I'm open to trades. Really just a very elegant, understated car that gets compliments wherever it goes - from young and old alike.

Please see the many photos below. Email or Call, if you have any questions. Car is located outside of Fort Lauderdale, FL. I will not take less than the Buy it Now posted, so any emails offering less will be politely ignored. Call 630 - Two Four Four - Five Six Six Seven.

Below is the crease from when the door swung open and broke the door stopper.

Seal needs to be glued again:

Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.

Feds Probe Power Steering In 938,000 Ford Midsize Cars

Mon, Oct 6 2014

U.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.

Sell your own: 2002 Lincoln LS V8

Ford Motor Company has been a global concern almost as long as there has been a 'Motor Company'. And while it is omnipresent in most corners of the globe, few things spoke to that globalization more than Ford's purchase of Jaguar and Land Rover near the end of the last century. And with that purchase came shared platform opportunities, some of which didn't work (Jaguar's X-Type is the most notable, whose platform was shared with the Ford Mondeo), and some that did. We'll focus on one that did: Jaguar's S-Type, whose engineering was common to the Lincoln LS. Sales didn't set the world on fire for either model, but there is something ageless about both; the Jag embraced a neo-classic theme, while Lincoln's LS is almost timeless within its 3-box, slab-sided architecture. This for-sale example, located in Melbourne, Fla., looks to be in nice condition. If the mileage is accurate and the Carfax reasonably clean, it should provide miles and years of motoring pleasure, even if only driving to your rheumatologist. The LS borders on being a quiet collectible, with less obvious pleasure in the viewing, more obvious delight in the driving; that's especially true with this model's V8. And you can put the asking price on most credit cards! Lincoln Car Buying Used Car Buying Buying Guide Ownership Luxury Sedan
