I've known of this car since the previous owner drove it home in 2008. I worked for this family as a carpenter off and on the whole time they owned it. I know for a fact this car sat majority of the time the previous owner had it. They maybe drove it 250 miles in the four years they owned it. The owner at the time unfortunately suffered a stroke shortly after buying it. Two owners before me passed on the following information about the car. It was brought to Iowa from California in 1971, it was parked in a garage and stored for 27 years, the 430 engine was overhauled and rebuild in 1998 from sitting for so long, the body was repainted in 1998, and it was only driven 700 miles from 71' to 98'. The odometer currently reads 15,135 miles. Based of the information provided by previous owners I believe this to be the original miles of the car. There is very little wear and tear on the brake and gas peddle and also the driver seat definitely doesn't look like someone has sat there for over 100k. Also, the nature of this car isn't intended for really long distance and or a lot of travel. The body is very straight and appears to have never been in any sort of serious accident. There is no serous pitting rust on the car. The only rust is surface rust that has started where the paint is chipped or scratched. This car is perfect for someone looking to do a restoration project on a rare and hard to find car. It has the factory 430 engine (350 hp). It has a three speed turbo-drive automatic transmission. This car is loaded with all sorts cool ultra high luxury items that where the top of the line in its day. The 58'-60' continental is the largest unit-construction car ever built. There were only 1409 of these cars produced in 59'. As you can see in the condition description I've done some of the initial steps for a restoration project to get the car driving and stopping, which it does very well. The engine sound strong and runs very well. The trans shifted through all gears and seems to shift smoothly. This car apparently has the high performance brake booster that I recently had rebuilt by the manufacture. I've only driven the car three miles since I had all the work done. I purchased this car with intentions of selling it from the start to help me out with other projects I have going on. Its pictured with a spare tire on the front passenger side but, that has been replaces with a matching tire allowing the car to be in it's proper stance. I hope this car can go to someone who will bring it to its full potential. All transportation logistics will be up the buyer to arrange.
On Feb-04-14 at 20:07:56 PST, seller added the following information: There is a piece on the steering wheel that is an extension of the horn that was broken off at some point. I have the part that broke off. Some of the power windows work and some don't. The same could be said for the power locks. Could use some wiring work as mentioned earlier. The hood opens and closes but, doesn't close the easiest. Could use some minor adjusting to get it to close better. Feel free to email with any questions. Thanks |

Lincoln Navigator is the people's choice for best of Detroit Auto Show
Wed, Jan 24 2018At a big auto show, you hear a lot of from automotive journalists about the outstanding cars on display — for example, Autoblog's own editors' choices from the Detroit Auto Show. But the Detroit News does something neat instead. It asks the public to vote in its annual Readers' Choice Awards. And coming out on top was the 2018 Lincoln Navigator. The newspaper collars 100 attendees at the North American International Auto Show and asks them to vote. This year, the public's pick as Best of Show coincided with the North American Car of the Year voters, journalists who picked the Navigator as the Truck of the Year. (We at Autoblog were wowed by the Navigator, too, but our editors' choices were limited to vehicles that were revealed at the show — the Navigator has been out long enough, that we've actually driven and reviewed it.) The Navigator on display at the show has the ultra-plush Black Label interior. It's a $95,000 rig. No surprise then that hit was also the public's choice in the category of Best Road-Trip Ride. The public's other choices: Best Dream Machine — Ford GT. Best Family Fun Finder — Chrysler Pacifica. Baddest Off-Road Vehicle — Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. Coolest Technology — BMW i8 Roadster. Most for Your Money — Kia Stinger. (Commenters on our recent Drivers' Notes review said the Stinger was a media darling the public won't buy, but these voters, at least, liked it.) Best Future Concept — Infiniti Q Inspiration. Most Eco-Friendly — Smart Fortwo. Most Amazing Mobility — Toyota Concept i-Walk. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

2022 Lincoln Aviator gets a new blackout trim package
Thu, Dec 2 2021The trend of automakers offering trim packages that add black-painted trim is as strong as ever, with no signs of slowing down. Lincoln already had a black-out package for the Aviator called the Monochromatic Package. Now, it's adding even more black trim for something called the Jet Package, because of the Aviator name and the idea of jet black. Aren't they clever? Anyway, the main difference here is that the Monochromatic Package left bits of chrome on the car, such as the grille surround, fender badges and window surrounds. The Jet Package abolishes those shiny bits in favor of gloss black trim. The body color mirrors also go black, as do the grille centers and most of the 22-inch wheels. The lower cladding is finished in body color, though. The package will be available early next year. Only three colors can be chosen with it: Pristine White, Infinite Black, Silver Radiance and Burgundy Velvet. It's also exclusive to the Reserve trim level. Pricing hasn't been announced yet.

2020 Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring plug-in hybrid range, fuel economy revealed
Mon, Dec 9 2019The range-topping 2020 Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring plug-in hybrid luxury crossover finally has official fuel economy ratings. The electric range is 21 miles, and when the battery is exhausted, gas-only combined fuel economy is 23 mpg. The EPA's combined electric and gas test loop yielded 56 mpg-e. These numbers make the Aviator Grand Touring the most frugal version of the three-row luxury crossover, with the next most efficient one being the rear-drive non-hybrid model at 21 mpg combined. When going by gas-only fuel economy, though, the Aviator Grand Touring's non-plug-in cousin, the Ford Explorer Hybrid, returns up to 28 mpg combined with rear-wheel drive, and 25 mpg with all-wheel drive. It has much less power at 318 horsepower and 322 pound-feet of torque, compared to the Aviator Grand Touring's 494 horsepower and 630 pound-feet of torque. The luxury plug-in hybrid crossover segment is quite small right now. The closest competitor to the Aviator Grand Touring is probably the Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid. It has a shorter electric range of 13 miles, and its gas-only fuel economy is a slightly worse at 22 mpg. The Porsche is less powerful with 455 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque, and its base price of $82,450 exceeds the Lincoln's $69,895 price. The Mercedes-Benz GLC 350e splits the difference on efficiency with a worse 10-mile electric range, but a better gasoline fuel economy of 25 mpg combined. This could improve for 2020, as the updated model will have a larger battery. It's cheaper, too, at $51,645, but it's also a full size smaller than the Lincoln.
