1967 Lincoln Continental 4 Door Sedan with "Suicide" Doors - Only 42,000 MIles!

This is a 100 percent stock and complete, unmolested rare find.


MECHANICAL:

- Runs/drives/shifts/stops/starts fine

- Recent complete tune-up (plugs/points/wires etc) and fluid change

- Recent new brake parts/repairs (brake pedal return might need more lubrication as car was in storage for many years)

- Newly-rebuilt original carb

- New electric fuel pump/fuel lines/gas tank clean out

- Several new front-end parts

- Does have exhaust noise at manifold (typical on these cars)


BODY:

- SUPER STRAIGHT sheet metal!- no dents or noticeable dings

- Finished in original "champaign metallic" color (repainted once with fading on top surfaces and scratches/chips here and there)

- Black "embassy" roof (replaced in past and fading/some minor cracking on top/minor pulling away from one side of windshield  pillar)

- Some minor rust along trunk lip, on lower bottom of passenger rear door, under vinyl top, and along both rear lower quarters (see pics for close-ups) - floors/frame etc all fine

- Driver quality chrome/brightwork (some fading on bumpers).  

- Needs trunk lock re-installed (have it in a box)


INTERIOR:

- All original black cloth interior with no rips/tears in seats or door panels (except minor cracks on driver door panel arm pad) - fabric has some sun fading on corners (see pics)

- Dash has crack along speaker edge (as almost all 67 Lincolns have) and fading

- Original carpet is in good shape - couple of worn spots here and there

- Headliner has a couple small holes (where it looks like something poked it)


ELECTRICAL:

-  Radio (factory AM) and power ant. working great

-  Lights (headlights, parking lights, taillights, brake lights, dash lights) all working great

-  Windows are not working (switches may need cleaning as car was in storage many years)

Wipers work sometimes but seem to have faulty/sticking switch

Power seat working fine


Overall, this is a terrific, all stock, super straight, LOW mileage,  highly-collectible  "suicide door" Lincoln that just needs some window/exhaust repairs and cosmetic refreshing/restoration to be either a nice driver or great restoration piece (with more work).  I just do not have the time to work on this one at this point.


Please ask ALL questions BEFORE bidding as the car is NOT 100 percent perfect show piece and is not being held out as such - please feel free to come inspect the car before bidding as the car is sold AS IS with no warranties, express or implied.  Given the brake light issue, the car should likely be transported.  I am not interested in any trades.  Thanks!

Lincoln's second, more traditional, Super Bowl commercial

Sat, 02 Feb 2013

For its second Super Bowl commercial, Lincoln Motor Company has stepped away from the Max Ernst-ian surrealism of the "Steer the Script" spot. No Germans, no turtles, no aliens nor alpacas this time, just a 30-second run through the ways in which Lincoln sees the 2013 MKZ as a rebirth of the brand and everything a luxury consumer would want.
The kind of traditional spot that could run any time of year, the only question we had after watching it was: "Wait - was that... Abraham Lincoln?" Along with the press release from Lincoln, you can view the spot below.
If you want a deeper look and criticism into Lincoln's "Steer The Script," ad, have a read of AOL Autos' column: Lincoln's Super Bowl Ad is a Flop, written by Pete Bigelow.

Weekly Recap: New bosses try to jump-start Cadillac and Lincoln

Sat, 26 Jul 2014



Both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
It's ironic that Cadillac and Lincoln got new bosses within days of each other this month. It's also a commentary on the fact both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.

Matthew McConaughey Lincoln pitches drive on with new MKZ ads

Mon, Dec 29 2014

You didn't think a few spoofs were going to break up Lincoln and pitch-man Matthew McConaughey, did you? With more than three million extra free views of Lincoln products on YouTube because of the send-ups – and no one is making fun of the car, remember – the brand rightly concludes, "We couldn't ask for better." That's why the pair are back, this time working on behalf of the MKZ and MKZ Hybrid. The two commercials "Balance" and "Diner" are new, but the formula is the same - cinematic, contemplative, channeling more than a bit of True Detective. They'll hit broadcast channels during college bowl games on New Year's Day. You can watch "Balance" above and "Diner" below, and the press release further down has more details.

Matthew McConaughey Gets Behind Wheel of 2015 Lincoln MKZ in New Ads Airing Jan. 1 - The Lincoln Motor Company teams up again with Academy Award™ winner Matthew McConaughey to create Lincoln MKZ and Lincoln MKZ Hybrid ad campaign that will begin airing during high-profile New Year's Day college football bowl games - Two new TV and online ads will promote Lincoln MKZ and Lincoln MKZ Hybrid midsize sedans, which have given a new direction to the brand with their introduction two years ago - Lincoln's previous collaboration with McConaughey, the "Live in Your Moment" campaign, fueled early sales success of 2015 Lincoln MKC small premium utility DEARBORN, Mich., Dec. 29, 2014 – In the bright spotlight of New Year's Day college football bowl games, The Lincoln Motor Company will launch its newest ad campaign promoting the 2015 Lincoln MKZ and Lincoln MKZ Hybrid and featuring Matthew McConaughey. Filmed in a style and tone consistent with last summer's much-talked-about "Live in Your Moment" ads for the first-ever Lincoln MKC, the new campaign brings the attention back to the premium midsize sedan that has been Lincoln's best-selling vehicle since arriving in showrooms two years ago. "The overwhelming response to the MKC campaign sparked truly great awareness for Lincoln," said Andrew Frick, Group Marketing Manager Lincoln. "Matthew's natural storytelling ability perfectly complements the Lincoln story as we continue to raise awareness and drive conversation in creative and unexpected ways.
