1966 Lincoln Continental Coupe
A two-door version was launched in 1966, the first two-door Lincoln since 1960, and the MEL engine was expanded from 430 to 462 cubic inches (7.0 to 7.6 L). The car was given all-new exterior sheet metal and a new interior. Parking lights and front turn signals went back into the front bumper, and taillights set in the rear bumper for the first time. The length was increased by 5 inches (130 mm) to 220.9 in (5,610 mm), the width by an 1-inch (25 mm) to 79.7 in (2,020 mm), and the height by almost 1-inch (25 mm) to 55.0 in (1,400 mm) (on the sedan). Curved side glass returned.
Heres a nice 1966 Continental Coupe Driver. it's getting tough to find one of these, let alone one this nice that is reliable enough to drive. Nice enough to drive and be proud without the hassle of worrying to put the first scratch on it when you lean on it! It has a new set of Coker Wide White wall tires, new Coker 15" chrome baby moon wheels & new duel exhaust that has been tucked up close to the chassis so it is ready for airide or to be lowered if you would like to put it in the weeds. It has a 462ci v8 with an automatic transmission. It runs and drives nice. the odometer reads 41,000. i am assuming that is not accurate. the car is fairly clean for its age but not 41,000 clean. the title reads 0 miles. It has a Edelbrock 650 carb thats about a year old. The brakes are very nice. There is a backing plate that rubs the brake rotor a little, No big deal. It is an A/C car but the belt is not installed. I am assuming the system need sealed and recharged. It is a very solid car & has minimal rust. The paint is older so it is not show quality. The interior is nice minus a crack on the dash, a few small tears in the upholstery and the worst, the top of the rear seat was sun baked and needs that panel replaced. The surrounding material is in good condition and will be able to be sewn to to fix the issue without doing the whole back rest. All of the badges are gone because they were all beat up and it looked better without them. All of the mounting holes are still there so they can be replaced if need be. All of the glass is fantastic! Minus a crack vertically through the middle if the windshield. the chrome trim is very complete. there are a few minor dings in the trim. nothing that can't be worked out if you would like to fully restore them. The blinkers and the brake lights work. Driving and tail lights work as they should. The power antenna works, the radio works, the speedometer works perfectly. All of the interior lights/ switches work. I have checked/repaired all of the window switches. Both front quarter windows pivot nicely! The drivers door works perfectly yet the passengers side catches sporadically. The window track needs to be re-squared. The rear window relays switch on but the motors do not react. i have not checked to see if they are even connected. the blinker and brake switch wires were not connected when i purchased this car. I cleaned the connections and plugged them in and they work fine. the wipers work fine but need new blades to wipe rain efficiently.
Overall it's a cool classy car! It sounds killer! It rumbles nicely when accelerating yet levels out when cruising.
Nada lists its value between $5,300 to $23,300 so i think my buy it now price of 12k is fair. Any questions please call 303 906 6999

Lower gas prices mean there are excellent deals on green cars right now
Sat, Jan 17 2015The phenomenon was big enough to make news in 2006, then in 2008, in 2011, in 2012, in 2013, and again last year: a big move in gas prices means a big move in alternative-fuel-vehicle sales. True Car's TrueSavings report, which averages transaction prices across the country to figure out what people are paying compared to MSRP, shows that electric cars and hybrids are ripe for excellent savings right now. The Ford Focus Electric presents the greatest disparity, with the average transaction price of $25,168 representing a 16.1-percent saving off its $29,995 MSRP. The Kia Optima Hybrid and Toyota Prius also snagged spots in the top five, with the Kia offering a 10.7-percent discount and the Toyota a 10.1-percent discount. One hybrid managed to show up among the top five lease offers, too: the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is just $315 a month for 36 months after $3,875 down in some markets. Alt-energy vehicles got bumped out of the top five finance deals, however. That was dominated by light trucks and, oddly, two subcompacts. The press release below has more details. TrueCar finds hybrids, EVs top list of best savings in January Gasoline price plunge = savings for consumers on alternative fuel vehicles SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Ford's Focus Electric hatchback, which sells at an average of 16 percent off MSRP, tops January's list of best savings on new vehicles, according to TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE), the negotiation-free car buying and selling platform. The "TrueSavings" monthly report analyzes current transaction prices and identifies opportunities for consumer savings. "Fuel savings are not top of mind to many consumers right now, and that makes this a great time to buy a hybrid or electric vehicle," said John Krafcik, president of TrueCar. "With gasoline prices now averaging just $2.10 per gallon, and vehicle preferences tied so closely to short-term gasoline prices, automakers are heavily discounting their most fuel-efficient cars to clear inventories." Toyota's Prius, the world's best-selling alternative fuel vehicle for more than a decade, also makes January's list of best savings. Customers who purchase a Prius Two model this month can save 10 percent off the hybrid car's $25,025 MSRP. "Gasoline prices and vehicle type preferences are strongly related, and this relationship is cyclical in nature," said Krafcik.
Possible MKX concept teased as Lincoln confirms China expansion
Thu, 17 Apr 2014We've been speculating for years about the future of Lincoln. Some thought that Ford needed to kill the division like it did Mercury, while others saw the sales possibility in a brand with so much history. Ford has finally made a decision, and it wasn't what many people were expecting. Lincoln is launching in China this fall, with the brand rollout starting at the upcoming Beijing Motor Show. A new video hints that we might even get to see the concept for the next-generation MKX.
Lincoln is marketing itself in China as a customer-focused, high-end luxury ownership experience. To prove it, the Lincoln Space in Beijing is meant both as a prototype dealer and a grand show of its plans. The modernist structure looks more like an art museum than a car showroom, and the interior decor is like a high-end hotel lobby. The company says that every dealer is going to have license plate recognition technology that knows when an owner arrives, and there will also be a Personalization Studio where potential buyers can design their car with family. Lincoln is promising to have eight showrooms ready in seven cities by this fall.
Of course, a stylish showroom is nothing without cars to sell. Lincoln is promising five models on sale in China by 2016. The MKZ and MKC launch this fall. A midsize luxury SUV, a fullsize luxury sedan and the Navigator are coming later. All of the models sold there are being imported from North America.
1955 Lincoln Indianapolis concept up for auction
Sat, 21 Sep 2013
Lincoln was never a brand known for making sports cars. In fact it hasn't offered anything with less than four doors since the demise of the Mark VIII, and that was hardly what you'd call "performance oriented". But that doesn't mean that Ford's luxury marque never toyed with the idea.
In 1955 Ford delivered a Lincoln chassis (along with a 200-horsepower V8 engine and four-speed automatic transmission) to Carrozzeria Boano, an Italian coachbuilder that had just branched off from Ghia the year before. The resulting orange coupe you see here was named after Indianapolis and was unveiled at the Turin Motor Show. And while its detailing may have been divisive, the overall shape certainly caught the eye.
