1966 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL 4 DOOR CONVERTIBLE. THE LAST OF THE MOJICANS!!
I bought this car 5 years ago from the second owner in California, which he had in storage for 25 years. This is a true rust free California car. This car is black with a black top and white interior with black stitching. I had this car painted 2 years ago. I'm talking about: doors, hood, trunk, etc everything came off. Sand blasted to the bare metal, everything has been redone except the motor. It has a 462 in excellent working condition with a little over 83,000 original miles, with an automatic transmission. All the chrome was taken off, the bumpers, handles, moldings you name it came off the car to be professionally sand blasted and re chromed. The alternator, starter, battery, radiator, hoses, cables, a/c compressor , have been rebuilt or replaced. The air conditioner condenser that the 1966 Lincoln brings is made of metal. I had it replaced for a new one made of aluminum which makes the air conditioner cool better. I'm in Miami and its hot here in the summer. The interior and top are brand new done by professionals 2 weeks ago, exactly like the factory the door panel stayed the same to keep the original pattern. The tires are white walls which have less than 300 miles on them. When it comes to the top I have changed almost all of the relays and motors that make this incredible top mechanism function. Everything is in perfect working order. The window switches have all been replaced, even the small vent windows work perfectly . I have over $45,000 invested in this car. I can say from 1 to 10 this one is a good 9. It's not a ten because I use the car and it has small nicks and nacks on the paint here and there but very minor. Like any old car convertible when it rains it has small leaks here and there, very small just needs a little adjusting if you've had any antiques before all old cars leak oil here and there. I have spent $$$$ and replaced almost all the seals from the top and windows they have all been ordered from LINCOLN LAND IN LAKE LAND FLORIDA, which specializes on Lincoln's. I have a stack of receipts, you can bring your mechanic before you buy and you could see for yourself what a great running engine this is. I have described and listed this car as best as I could, it has been kept in a warehouse. I had a second radio installed inside the glove box and 4 speakers (1 in each door and the other 2 , 1 on each side) thats the only thing not original. I have seen a lot of Lincoln's on eBay and in the streets and NONE compare to this one. I entered them in 2 car shows, 1 last year, it was a charity event in Miami Coconut Grove Barnacle Park. Out of 75 cars it was voted coolest car and the 2nd was the Art Of Palm Avenue in Hialeah Florida over 250 cars it was voted Best in Show. I could tell you that this car turns heads from young to old, they will look anywhere you go. People love this car, I love this car!!!. A lot of love has been put into it, I have been through a lot to get it to where it is at today. But I have to let it go... my loss, your gain. If this is what you are looking for? AND CAN AFFORD IT?? Im asking $37,500, but will entertain serious offers. If you would like to come see it in person: I'm in Miami. Believe me, it drives like a dream especially on the expressway. "PLEASE NO DREAMERS!!!" "THIS CAR IS SOLD AS IN NO WARRANTIES!!!!" *This car is also for sale locally buyer has the right to end auction early, thanks* |

Lincoln debuts MKC ads starring Matthew McConaughey
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Lincoln is making the decisive commitment that it wants to improve its brand perception going forward. It can't be cheap to hire A-list talent like Academy Award-winning actor Matthew McConaughey and director Nicolas Winding Refn, best known for Drive, for its new ad campaign for the 2015 MKC crossover, but the company is showing that it's serious about the new vehicle and its future. The first three of these five commercials are just hitting YouTube, and they begin airing on television on September 6.
The Live in Your Moment campaign is all about Lincoln trying to sell not just the MKC to customers but also explain the brand's philosophy. It's one of the oldest luxury automakers around, but hasn't exactly had a glorious history, especially recently. Based on these first ads, we can see that there's a definite focus on philosophizing rather than focusing on the crossover. At times, McConaughey seems just a mustache and a mangled beer can away from reprising his role from True Detective.
The first ad (above) is simply titled Intro and sets the mood and concept for the whole campaign. Bull has McConaughey talking to a longhorn in the middle of a road, and I Just Like It has him explaining his affinity for the brand. Lincoln's full release is available below, and you can view the other ads by flipping through the playlist in the video player above.
Lincoln recycling tree fibers into new MKX armrest
Thu, Feb 27 2014Want to hug a tree, or at least a really small part of one. Then set your arm down on one of those armrests in the 2014 Lincoln MKX crossover. The US automaker is working with Weyerhaeuser and Johnson Controls on a tree-based, cellulose-reinforced polypropylene material used in the component that connects the armrest to the floor console, Wards Auto says. With properties similar to plastic, the tree-based material replaces fiberglass and is about six percent lighter. No big deal for now, but if the material starts getting used for things like battery trays and interior storage covers, that loss in weight may eventually start adding up enough to boost fuel economy a bit, providing a green double bonus. Lincoln parent Ford, which isn't saying how much more (or less?) it costs to use the new material, established its Biomaterials and Plastics Research team in 2001. In 2007, the company began using soy-based foam in car seats used for models such as the Lincoln Navigator and Ford Mustang and has since broadened biomaterials use to components like floormats and cupholder inserts. Ford also used recycled plastic bottles from the 2012 North America International Auto Show for seats in the Focus Electric.
The 1965 Ford Mustang could have looked a lot different
Fri, May 8 2020The 1965 Ford Mustang is unquestionably an automotive design icon, and nearly every generation of Mustang has some connection to that original car. Because it's such a universally-known vehicle, we were amazed to see all the different designs that were being considered. Head of Ford's archives Ted Ryan recently shared photos of design proposals for the original Mustang on Twitter that he and Jamie Myler found, and we reached out to them to find out more. As Ryan initially noted, the photos were taken on August 19, 1962, and they are proposals for the Ford Mustang. Apparently Ford had committed to doing a Falcon-based youth-oriented car at this point, and it did have plans to launch the car in 1964 for the 1965 model year. But after having little success with early design proposals, the company asked all of its design studios — the Advanced Studio, Lincoln-Mercury Studio and Ford Studio — to submit proposals. With only about two years before the planned launch, Ford was understandably short on time, and it's believed that the studios only had a month to create and present these designs. Lincoln-Mercury design proposal View 8 Photos The majority of the designs, a total of five, came from the Advanced Studio, and part of this was because they already had a couple of concept designs in reserve it could present. Two other models representing three design possibilities came from Lincoln-Mercury, and just one model with two options came from Ford. The Advanced Studio proposals are shown in the gallery at the very top of this article, and the Lincoln-Mercury and Ford proposals are in the gallery directly above this paragraph. The Advanced Studio's most radical design is the one that was clearly related to the Mustang I concept that would be shown later that year with huge wraparound rear glass, turbine-inspired bumpers and enormous side scoops. The other proposals from the studio were more conservative, featuring simple lines, grilles reminiscent of the Falcon, and one even borrowing the jet-thruster-style taillights made famous on the Thunderbird. Lincoln-Mercury had some impressively bold designs, particularly its fastback that had buttresses to extend the shape all the way to the tail. This car had two different side trim possibilities. The other Lincoln-Mercury design was toned down a bit, but had two interesting possibilities for side detailing, as well as some crisp, low-profile tail fins.
