1966 Lincoln Continental Convertible

This is the one you've been waiting for!  Suicide doors.  Classic luxury and muscle combined.  This car has everything!

 


Don't hesitate and miss the chance to own your dream car.  You don't cant find these cars in this condition.  This was top of the line in it's day with power windows, power locks, 8-way power seat , power antenna, power brakes (disk), power steering, A/C and cruise control.  Yes, cruise control on a 66... and it works!   I restore classics for a living and have sold several on ebay with 100% feedback, but this is different.  This is my baby, titled and registered in my name.  I never thought I'd let it go.  I've had a hundred people ask me to buy it and I've always declined.  Well, here's your chance.  I drive this car at least a few times a week and it never gives me any problems.  It rides like it's floating on a cloud.  The 462 cu in engine is super strong, yet surprisingly quiet.  They had four mufflers from the factory so you couldn't hear the engine to give it a more luxury feel.  When you're cruising with the top down all you hear is the wind and the compliments.  If you know anything about these cars, or are looking to buy one, make sure everything works, because it can cost thousands just to get all the windows working, and more for the top.  This one has been gone through by an old Lincoln expert.  The top goes up and down quickly and quietly for this model.  All the power windows go up and down.  The switches work even though a couple are missing the tips of the switch as is common.  Even the vent windows are power, which always catches people off guard.  I installed a nifty remote to control the convertible top from up to 100 yards away.  See second video.  This is my favorite feature, and it draws a crowd every time I use it.  Don't be like everyone else with a Mustang Chevy.  Really stand out with this rare classic.  I have been lucky enough to own just about every classic you can think of and this one gets far more attention than any other.  It was made for cruising so you can actually drive it on the highway and long distances with ease and comfort.  The A/C blows ice cold so even here in Florida I'm always comfortable.  The heater works as well.  It was recently painted an elegant pearl white that is perfect for this style of car.  The maroon interior is in exceptionally good condition.  All the gauges work as they should.  All the lights and blinkers work.  The cruise control works.  The power seat works as it should.  No cracks on the dash.  Brand new carpet.  All of the chrome is in fantastic condition with the exception of a small section of the rear bumper.  All of the stainless trim is in nearly perfect condition, which is extremely rare to find.  The vinyl top is in great condition with one small rip in the bottom left corner.  The tires have over 80% tread and the wheel covers are in great shape.  The radio works, but it's the original so only AM.  Like all cars, this one isn't perfect, but it's close enough for me.  I've added two videos and as many pictures as I could to represent the car accurately.  Since the video I added "gangster white walls" which can be included with the car if the winning bidder wants.  All of the videos and pictures were taken last week with my cell phone and were not photoshopped or enhanced in any way.  I have set the reserve low and no buy it now, so good luck bidding.  This is a very rare opportunity to own a very rare piece of history and a real gem.  I'm sure I'm leaving a lot out, so feel free to email me with any questions.  I also encourage anyone interested to come see it in person and drive it.  Just prepare to fall in love.  Speaking of, I reserve the right to end this auction any time because anyone who sees it is going to buy it on the spot.  Feel free to call, come by, or email with serious offers.  I will not end the auction until cash is in hand.  Thanks for looking, and good luck bidding!

Lincoln Aviator warning and alert sounds are played by an orchestra

Mon, Nov 5 2018

Lincoln used members of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra to create alert chimes for its new Aviator SUV. Luxury manufacturers are always looking for more ways to increase the level of ambiance, and Lincoln went so far as to contract some of the best musicians in the world to create a more comfortable atmosphere. In total, the musicians created six different alert chimes for 25 different alerts the Aviator could provide. The alert chimes fall into three different categories Lincoln uses for warnings: non-critical, soft-warning chimes and hard-warning chimes. They are all made using a blend of percussion instruments, violin and viola. Lincoln plans to expand the instrumental sounds across its entire lineup eventually. These chimes will represent warnings for things like an open fuel door, unbuckled seat belt, the lowering of the power liftgate and plenty more. It's not a bad day when leaving your headlights on or door open lead to a pleasant musical sound coming from your speakers. All the sounds seem appropriate for their particular functions, and do sound more pleasing than the normal alerts. Lincoln says the musicians initially came up with 125 different sound options before they narrowed it down to just six. While it might feel a bit gimmicky at face value, a calming sound playing versus an annoying beep might reduce in-car aggravation. The Aviator with these warning sounds will be revealed at the LA Auto Show at the end of the month as well. It was originally shown as a close-to-production-looking concept car at the NY Auto Show earlier this year. All the official production details will be coming in LA. We'll be there in-person to tell you if these new musical chimes are a win. Lincoln Aviator warning chimes View 5 Photos Related video:

McConaughey stars in new round of Lincoln ads

Thu, Aug 20 2015

Matthew McConaughey's ruminative commercial work with the Lincoln MKC, MKZ, and MKZ Hybrid showed us a side of Lincoln we didn't know existed, and a bunch of spoofs made us laugh about it. Most importantly, though, the partnership worked, leading to a double-digit increase in sales and millions of hits in brand exposure. That's why the actor and the automaker are back together, McConaughey scheduled to return in a new commercial campaign launching September 2 for the 2016 Lincoln MKX. He'll give up the air of cosmopolitan sage, because these ads "dial up the swagger factor" according to Lincoln's group marketing manager John Emmert. Introduced earlier this year at the Detroit Motor Show, the brand put a lot of work into the all-new model, said to be "much improved in how it rides, steers, brakes and looks," offering a more powerful engine, and at least 36 new features including adaptive lighting. Ford's first production implementation of adaptive steering, and Harman's first automobile application of Revel audio will bow with the mid-sized crossover. On top of all that, it's also got that lower price. Emmert said the McConaughey ads will point out "the technology and the beauty of the vehicle." Lincoln will buy time during NFL games as part of the campaign. We have no doubt the anticipation from YouTube and a few celebrity rascals is already high. Related Video:

Analysts warn Lincoln shouldn't follow Ford out of the sedan market

Fri, Dec 6 2019

Lincoln looks set to mimic Ford's on-going shift away from sedans. The move makes sense on the surface, but analysts warn the luxury brand needs to keep some low-riding models in its portfolio. The company's current lineup includes two sedans, the MKZ and the Continental, plus five SUVs. The sedans aren't long for this world, according to The Detroit Free Press. The publication learned Ford's Hermosillo, Mexico, factory will stop manufacturing the MKZ in late 2020 or early 2021, and it pointed out UAW documents note Continental production will continue "through its product lifecycle." In other words, it's the last model on the Continental branch of the Lincoln family tree. These two nameplates represent 23.3 percent of Lincoln's annual sales so far in 2019, which is a surprising and respectable statistic. One in four cars the company sells is a sedan. The problem is that they accounted for 27.6 percent of the firm's sales in 2018, and that number will continue to fall in 2020 as customers flock towards crossovers and SUVs. And yet, exiting the sedan market isn't the right answer for a company that wants to re-establish its reputation as a luxury automaker. Eric Noble, the president of consulting firm CarLab, told The Detroit Free Press about 40 percent of American buyers in the market for a luxury car choose a sedan. The Chinese market — where Lincoln hopes to gain a secure foothold in the coming years — also has a healthy appetite for sedans. Going SUV-only is a strategy that might work well in the United States, but it doesn't suit Lincoln's ambitions. Germany's big three luxury brands all have a flagship sedan at the top of their range. We can't argue against sales data; the sedan market is shrinking. There are ways to keep buyers in the fold, however. The Continental is a stellar effort from the brand, and a solid foundation on which to build. Noble pointed out Lincoln could use the rear-wheel drive platform found under its Aviator and Ford's latest Explorer to build a four-door model with a fastback-like roof line in the vein of the Audi A7. It's a sleeker, sexier body style that tends to attract more buyers than a more conventional three-box sedan, which is often criticized as old-fashioned. Automakers can normally get away with charging a little bit more for these cars; the A7 is more expensive than the A6, for example. Electrification could be the Lincoln sedan's saving grace.
