1964 Lincoln Continental Convertible on 2040-cars
Arlington, Texas, United States
|
This is a rare 1964 Lincoln Continental Convertible with bucket seats. The car runs and drives. I just spent 2500 dollars on carb rebuild and new brakes and a couple of other items. Please view all pictures and ask questions on anything and everything. The cars needs much work but for a few grand more you could have a decent very cool driver. The pictures make the car look better than it is to be honest. The panels are pretty darn straight but it will need a full paint job if you wish to have a shiny vehicle. There is a rust bubble on the right rear fender well. The rest of the body is fairly clean minus a ding or two. The bumpers have some rust as shown. The convertible top does not work. The motor turns and spins but does not engage the clamps above the windshield. The top is in very nice shape minus the rear window trim area which is coming apart but should not leak. The front power windows work including the quarter windows, the other windows do not. There are missing parts on the interior as shown in photos. Windows don't line up exact just based on the rear windows not working. The tail lights are not working or brake lights. I am sure this is an easy fix but cannot access since the trunk will not go up based on previous top comment. As mentioned it is a rare set up but this would be a better weekend cruiser than a full restoration vehicle as the cost would be astronomical. Items to address would be top, windows, lights then you could tinker and adjust thereafter. I have a box of little items such as the ashtray etc...There are alot of things that need tightening etc...so I hopefully think you get the picture.
As mentioned it runs and drives straight down the road and will make a cool driving, eye catching convertible with a little work but I am trying to give an accurate description so I won't get a "hey, I anticipated a really nice car and it is not". On May-18-14 at 11:41:55 PDT, seller added the following information: Lots of questions. When I say full restoration I am speaking in terms of any classic. I have a beautiful 58 356a but to put to museum is astronomical. This car with paint, top etc would look fantastic as panels etc are very nice but just want to inform. It is not the condition that some of these 20k convertibles are but with about 5-7 it would be. My reserve is much lower than that as to afford the new owner opportunity for growth. I am taking a bath on this as the individual I bought it off of told me all worked. I would rather not invest any more money in it My reserve is half of what I paid and is worth it. |

2015 Lincoln Navigator puts on a brave face, offers EcoBoost V6 only
Thu, 23 Jan 2014
Lincoln has finally given its SUV a facelift after seven long years.
Seven years is a long time. For the auto industry, though, seven years is an absolute eternity. Most vehicles receive clean-sheet redesigns within the span of seven years, usually getting a facelift of some sort after year three or four. Not Lincoln.
Lincoln putting perfume on its sales
Mon, 18 Aug 2014Lincoln has a scent. But unlike those from Mustang, Lamborghini or even Shark by Tara, you can't buy it and you have to visit a Lincoln dealership to inhale its notes of jasmine hedione, mate tea leaves and tonka beans. Essence of Lincoln - that's what it's called - is being piped through the ventilation systems at some showrooms to help "create an emotional connection between the luxury brand and its customers," and olfactorily promote the idea of "luxury and warmth." Where it's not run through the ducts, visitors can sample it on scent cards.
Master perfumer Rene Morgenthaler worked with aroma house SensoryMax to design Essence of Lincoln. Also including traces of Earl Grey bergamot and green tea, whenever you encounter it you're meant to enjoy "a feeling of belonging to an exclusive, forward-thinking group that values style and success." And then buy an MKC. There's a press release below with details and an image to explain more, if you're still having a little trouble smelling the orange blossoms.
RWD Lincolns are coming, fate depends partly on MKZ success
Tue, 04 Dec 2012The product portfolio at Lincoln may seem a bit sparse at the moment, but if a report is to be believed, new products are on the way. TheDetroitBureau.com spoke with sources at Lincoln and Ford, who claimed the American premium brand is working on, perhaps more than one, rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
Lincoln would likely platform-share with the next-generation Ford Mustang to develop those RWD offerings in the early going. Moving forward, the report indicates that Lincoln could take the lead on other rear-drive projects in the future. As the RWD architecture continues to take shape, "most or all" of the front-wheel-drive portfolio will also be offered with all-wheel drive as an option, ala Audi.
But wait, there's more! The report also suggests that a replacement for the full-size MKS is on the way, as well as a new Navigator and a luxury crossover based on the current Ford Escape.
