This car has a nice body for being 57 years old.
The front floor pans have already been replaced.
Exhaust in the car is very solid.
A good radio core with the KNOBS to use for a conversion to am/fm.
A real nice instrument cluster, with working gauges.
Power seat motors, front door window motors.
The rear seat can be dyed and reused, the front will have to be redone.
Passenger side rocker molding is in decent shape, And you will get a NOS driver side rocker with the car. [$700 value]
Hood chrome trim is very nice shape.
Front and rear bumpers clean up real nice and are good driver quality.
Both taillight assby are there, and the hinges are in good shape on the fuel tank side.
The car has tinted glass, all good, but it is a non a/c car.
It come with a good set of hood hinges, no slop or worn out.
The grill will clean up nice, and the center bar is perfect, no dents or cracks. [$350 value]
Now a description of the engine and rolling frame.
The frame had 2 SMALL bad spots that I repaired with heavy steel patches. Then gave a quick coat of black paint so it would not get surface rust.
The engine is a 57,000 mile engine with no leaks, no taps, no smoke, no gunk build up inside. This motor needs nothing, it sounds great. This motor came from another Mark ll. I drove the car before I cut it up. The carb may need rebuilt, as it has been sitting in my shop for 3 years, and the gaskets may have dried up.
The transmission from the same car. It shifts smooth, with no leaks.
Rear brakes are on the frame, front ones need to be switches from the donor car to the rolling frame.
After you make the switch to the good frame, you will have a lot of parts that are extra, or you could sell. There is a complete suspension and a rebuilt trans in the donor car.
Parts I know you will need to finish. Vent window motors, quarter window motors, door locks. I THINK I have a outside mirror and a trunk medallion, that you could get rechromed, again, I THINK!
Please do not ask what the reserve is, bid what it is worth to you. I will try to answer all your questions asap.

Lincoln Continental Concept has arrived on the New York stand
Thu, Apr 2 2015The return of the Lincoln Continental, albeit in concept form, has not been without controversy. Bentley chief designer Luc Donckerwolke going as far as to call the car a "copy" of its own Flying Spur, offering to send the British sedan's tooling to Detroit. But while debate can rage over any similarities – you can and should head over and vote in our poll on the matter – can we all at least agree to see something interesting happening with Lincoln design? Gone are unattractive styling trademarks like Lincoln's winged grille, while less polarizing elements like the vehicle-spanning taillights have been refined. The three-box design, meanwhile, dismisses the coupe-like stylings of the latest MKZ , opting for a long hood, short deck and a more traditional three-box layout. The advantage of that, of course, is cabin space. The Continental is designed for rear-seat passengers, offering opulent, Venetian leather seats with Alcantara inserts and 30-way adjustability. Just so we're clear, we have a hard time even thinking of 30 different ways to adjust a seat, so well played Lincoln. The headliner is satin, a briefcase sits in each back rest and dedicated tray tables allow for work on the go. It's plush, even in the world of pie-in-the-sky concepts. Check out our latest batch of live photos of the all-new Continental Concept, live from its stand at the 2015 New York International Auto Show.

Woman keying luxury car caught on tape
Thu, Nov 12 2015Toronto police are on the hunt for a disguised woman who was caught on camera Sunday keying a car. The woman sported a red bandana over her face and baseball cap as she ran up to the Lincoln MKS in a driveway, the Toronto Star reported. She then went to town with a sharp object, gleefully scratching the car's paint job. She runs off after nearly a minute of enthusiastic damage. Police believe the victim and the vandal know each other, since the Lincoln is the only car in the neighborhood she hit. This is also the third time this particular car has been damaged. They suspect this woman is responsible for the previous incidents. Toronto police told the Star that it will likely cost Lincoln owner thousands to have his car repaired. Security cameras are great for catching vandals in the act, though the videos are difficult for any car enthusiast to watch. Take for instance this video from London in April of a man scratching an Aston Martin while pushing a baby stroller. News Source: The Toronto Star Lincoln Videos vandalism scratch
Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion
Thu, 11 Sep 2014We all had to see this coming. Conan O'Brien has released a parody of Matthew McConaughey's new ads for the 2015 Lincoln MKC and remixed them with lines from one of his most critically acclaimed recent roles.
The now much darker commercial probably isn't how Lincoln would prefer the MKC to be marketed, but really in a few of the actual ads, McConaughey already seems moments away from breaking into a full Rustin Cohle from True Detective impression. The cadence and tone of his voice are just so close to that character, especially in the one where he's talking to the bull standing in the middle of the road. It very nearly verges on parody anyway; Conan is just turning all of this up to 11.
It's a little surprising that the writers didn't dig a little deeper into the McConaughey oeuvre for the parody. Maybe McConaughey could have taken the MKC for a party at the Moon Tower from Dazed and Confused. In any case, it's worth a quick watch, so check it out.
