1966 Lincoln Continental Base 7.6l on 2040-cars
Cornelius, North Carolina, United States
This car is bad ass and turns some serious heads. It has a new battery, Fuel tank, brake lines, brake pads, wheel cylinders, light bulbs, wheel adapters and starter. Newer ball joints, shocks and all new steering components. It has 20" wheels with brand new tires (20 miles). Rear Gabriel Air shocks. I just repainted it in Valspar satin black and I am in the process of slowly assembling this back together. It had no rust on it. The motor runs perfect with its 462 Lincoln/Edsel motor that has 85k on it. This motor was made for 2 years and runs really good. Runs really smooth. I pulled the transmission out just to inspect it to find out it was already rebuilt. While it was out I replaced the front pump seals and front pump bushing as it had a small leak. No More leaks. Shifts nice and smooth. After 1966 the DOT required all cars to be equipped with a dual reservoir master brake cylinder so while going through the brakes I upgraded it to a new dual reservoir MC. It has new plugs, wires cap and rotor. All chrome is in great shape except two top trim pieces. I have not put them on yet. I may use 3m flexible chrome and let the new owner send it out for repair. I have all new clips to put in on when its repaired. The interior is in original conditions and in pretty good shape. It is kind of a goldish, green but I left it original for someone else to change if they want. I like the old look inside. Putting in a fully blue tooth run stereo system so I can leave the original radio in and keep everything wireless. It has all the components for the AC but it is not charged and the belt is off..............These cars are EXTREMELY expensive to restore and they were leaps and bounds ahead of all competition in the day with technology and when done nice they sell through classic car distributers from 25-30k. I wanted this to look cool instead of like an old man car but it is a matching numbers car for a collector who may want fully restore it.. I have about 15k into this car already. Come get it before my wife refuses to let me sell it.(Bet you never heard that before) This will be going to Street side classics and sold for a premium on the international market in the next two weeks. Please inquire if you are serious and test rides will be given to people with cash in hand. Clear NC title Will accept all reasonable offers.

Why the 2015 Lincoln MKC is 'holding some powder'
Thu, 19 Jun 2014Earlier this month in our first drive of the 2015 MKC, we told you that Lincoln finally had a new vehicle in its arsenal worth crowing about. So with the compact premium crossover now finding its way into dealers, why aren't you seeing its likeness plastered on billboards and barraging you on television? It's because Lincoln is "holding some powder."
Those are the words of Lincoln's global director, Matt VanDyke, who tells Autoblog that the company is holstering some of its marketing guns because it's keen to avoid repeating the ill-timed efforts that blighted its last rollout, the MKZ. That vehicle's launch early last year was beset by various delays related to manufacturing and quality. The cadence issue was so dire that by the time the model reached showrooms in volume, Lincoln had already blown most of its budget on things like Super Bowl ads that ran weeks or even months before customers could check one out in person. It was a particularly trying series of events for parent Ford because the MKZ and its oversized marketing spend were charged with relaunching the Lincoln brand to the public.
Keen to avoid repeating the same timing issue and mindful of consumers' habits at this time of year, Lincoln is taking a different strategy with the MKC. According to VanDyke, "What we don't want to do is try and fight the summertime - people using television being down, and other mass media when school's out. New television shows aren't on." Of course, that doesn't mean Lincoln is sitting idle. VanDyke says, "By no means are we quiet during the next 90 days. This year, we're going to really spend the next 60 to 90 days using digital and social media, in-theater advertising and the like, and once we have full availability at dealerships, we'll really ramp up the advertising later on in the summer." Part of that early media effort includes immersive digital marketing like Lincoln's clever Dream Rides web experience.
Lincoln MKC spied in final form
Mon, 14 Oct 2013When the Lincoln MKC Concept debuted back in January, it received fairly positive feedback from both Autoblog editors and readers alike, and this bodes well for the production version of the luxury crossover judging by these latest spy shots. Reader Ivan Lo captured a few pictures of some MKC prototypes driving around with minimal camouflage, which gives us our best look yet at the design of this new Escape-based Lincoln.
Based on the spy shots from back in May, we already knew that the production MKC would sport some real door handles, a little side cladding and bigger door mirrors, but these latest shots also show us that the rear quarter windows have been enlarged and the integrated dual exhaust outlets have been replaced by round pipes. This means that the MKC will retain the concept's narrow headlights and what is arguably Lincoln's best execution of its split-wing grille. Even better, the rear view confirms the stylish horizontal taillights will remain intact, as well as the Audi-like wraparound liftgate. Since the entire taillight assembly rises along with the liftgate, redundant lights were also added into the rear fascia.
Unfortunately, the low angle of these spy shots leaves us without a view of the interior, but based on its looks alone, the MKC is shaping up to be a promising vehicle for a brand that so badly needs some fresh metal.
