1968 Lincoln Continental Base 7.6l on 2040-cars
Richardson, Texas, United States
Up for sale is my dream car that has had a lot of time, money and love put into it… I’ve decided to pursue an Executive MBA$, so I need to liquidate asap… I’ve spent a fortune on it so far and I realize I’ll only recoup a fraction of the effort… I'm hoping for a great owner that will enjoy the car. The continental has only 2 documented owners. I even have the original line ticket, plus other documentation and brochures!!! It was a barn find that was saved and preserved (stored on jack stands and covered in a dry shop) until the restoration began. This is now a running, driving, stopping, great looking driver\project that needs the details completed to be a daily driver. The good to great! · A very high\expensive quality paint and body. The body is so straight with no waves, that’s hard to do, since its soooo long 221”….obviously no rust. One negative area, the diameter of a penny where the clear coat flacked off, on the hood. · Rebuilt engine 462 – under 500 miles on it. I start it up and drive around the block once a week or so. · Rebuilt transmission · New master cylinder and booster, and all new brake components · Professionally polished trim – one ding above passenger window · Re-chrome bumpers · New light lenses · New wheels · New tires · New glass · New leather seats - front and back, · New carpet · New leather headliner · New leather front dash, rear was not done yet What a start, all the aesthetics are complete… Adding the receipts plus a conservative value of the base vehicle that’s nearly 25K$... The future needs of the car- The vehicle is currently at a classic car dealer getting the electrical sorted out. I’m not sure how much they will complete prior to the auction ending. The car runs, drives and stops very well. But assume the lights, seat and power windows are not all functioning. Also, the AC is not holding Freon-but blows; they were tracking down the leak. The heater core and cruise control bladder need replacing. If I had the luxury, I would allow the classic car dealer tocomplete the repairs and ask a premium for car. But, unfortunately i need to sell quickly , so I'll have to hope a buyer has the vision I did for the car. Oh, since the car is at the shop, I'm not able to take additional photos of the interior or engine at this current time. But it is very clean! Best of luck, CW |

Ford recalling 830,000 vehicles to replace side door latches
Thu, Aug 4 2016The Basics: Ford is conducting a recall for roughly 830,000 models. The affected vehicles include the 2013 to 2015 Ford C-Max, 2012 to 2015 Ford Focus, 2013 to 2015 Ford Escape, 2015 Lincoln MKC, 2015 Ford Mustang, and 2014 to 2016 Ford Transit Connect. The recall is focused primarily in Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, California, Arizona, Hawaii, Georgia, New Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Nevada, Utah, Oklahoma, Washington, and Oregon as the problem mostly affects cars in states with warm weather. The Problem: The pawl spring tab in the side door latch in the affected vehicles could break, preventing the door from latching and could even cause the door to open while driving. Injuries/Deaths: There is one reported injury and one reported accident. The Fix: Dealers will replace the affected cars' side door latches. If you own one: Reach out to your local Ford dealer to schedule a service.

Lincoln Continental death looms with changes at Flat Rock Plant
Tue, Aug 20 2019Ford's Flat Rock Assembly plant just south of Detroit produces the Ford Mustang and the Lincoln Continental. Automotive News reports that the automaker plans to produce two battery-electric crossovers at the facility, the EVs scheduled for sale in the 2023 model year. The EVs were previously meant to be built in Ford's Cuautitlan Stamping and Assembly plant in Mexico, which builds the Fiesta. According to the AN piece, moving the EVs to Michigan means the end of Lincoln Continental production in the U.S. Sunset is expected in "late 2021" for a sedan that is just three years old, and that never got the momentum to assert itself and reassert the Continental nameplate. The Continental has been on death watch since at least March 2018, when Ford Authority reported that the luxury sedan wouldn't get more than one generation. The changing of several guards in the top ranks scotched a plan to move the Continental onto the CD6 platform for rear- and all-wheel-drive vehicles. In September 2018, Jalopnik put more meat on those crossbones, saying Flat Rock workers alleged the big Lincoln could bid adieu as soon as this year, and automaker insiders had seen production merely scheduled — not approved — for 2020, with nothing beyond that. Then, as now, Ford appears to be leaving open the possibility for Continental production to continue in China, and just maybe be exported here. The two twinned midsized EVs, using the codenames CDX746 and CDX747, would come in Ford and Lincoln flavors. Said to be roughly the size of the Ford Edge/Lincoln Nautilus platform siblings, the automaker has requested suppliers gear up for annual production of up to 65,000 units between the two models. When they arrive, they'll form part of the 16 EVs Ford plans to have on the market worldwide by 2022. The others we know of so far are the crossover that will channel the Mustang, an electric F-150 pickup, and an EV project with Rivian.
