Beautiful All Original 1973 Lincoln Continental Mark Iv on 2040-cars
Carlsbad, California, United States
This car is all original, not restored but meticulously maintained over the years. One owner literally an old lady who passed away. Was kept in garage it's entire life. Everything works from the big 460 engine to all motors for antenna, power seats, windows etc etc. The Original 8 track radio even works as well as the AC. All chrome in excellent condition, no rust or pitting a 9 or a 10 on the chrome condition. White leather interior is in good shape with normal wear for a 1973 vehicle though the drivers seat is dry and cracked up. Engine is super clean and strong, radiator excellent, transmission excellent, carburetor excellent, everything engine wise is excellent. It has 25643k original miles but look like the owner had it painted in 1994 but stayed with the original color which is a white w blue tint. White leather interior, blue carpet and dash, Crack in steering wheel which is not the original but a replacement from 1974 I believe. Black vinyl top really good condition but little age not torn or damaged just slightly faded. Excellent Lincoln for an enthusiast to bring to showroom condition due to having all it's parts minus the hood ornament, replacement steering wheel from 1974 believe. The car was well maintained over the years and all hard to find parts tracked down when needed so this car has all the original bells and whistles and the kicker is the low low 25643 original miles. It has never been restored so it's truly just one of those cars in spectacular all original shape which is in excellent working order in all areas. So for those of you who know your Lincoln's and want a gem here she is. I knew the old woman for sometime and obtained the car when she passed It has been in my garage not driven but cared for now for about a month and a half. Title Clean and in my hand, registered, ready to go.. No problems.

Lincoln and MKZ propose brand reinvention
Mon, 03 Dec 2012Lincoln made a rather assertive statement about the future of its products at the 2012 LA Auto Show. Rather than put any new vehicle on display for the first press day, the American premium brand placed a collection of classic cars from its past on the show floor. For the second day, that assortment was replaced with more than a half-dozen examples of the all-new 2013 MKZ. Following that, Lincoln teased a new ad campaign that was in the works, and it appears we now have the first extended promotional video.
Entitled "The Lincoln Motor Company," the spot acts as more of a mission statement, rather than an ad, featuring (once again) cars from Lincoln's past, as well as certain bits of Americana usually reserved for a Levi's ad. The video concluded with Lincoln reintroducing itself to the world, accompanied by a new name: The Lincoln Motor Company.
The video is likely to be the first of many in a large advertising blitz by the automaker, in concert with the rolling-out of the new MKZ. The sedan was the only new vehicle featured in the video, and Lincoln is betting heavily on this "reinvention" to bring customers in to see its new sedan. We want to know what's next. Scroll down to watch the video.
Lincoln to resurrect old nameplates for China?
Wed, 04 Dec 2013Judging by the success that many luxury automakers are currently experiencing in China, it's no surprise that Lincoln plans to take advantage of the situation by peddling its wares across the Pacific. Lincoln will open its first Chinese dealership next year, but potential buyers there won't be mucking through the same alphabet soup of car names found in American showrooms. USA Today reports that Ford's luxury car division could revert back to legacy names (like Continental and Zephyr) in China while keeping the MK_ names here in North America.
In speaking to Ford exec Jim Farley during the LA Auto Show, USA Today says that Lincoln could switch its naming structure as models are refreshed. Farley didn't confirm that the naming revamp would be a China-only decision, but article leaves little hope that American buyers will get to see the return of classic names anytime soon.
Why would Ford rehash old Lincoln names for China only? Buyers there seem to have a better historical associations with the nameplates than in the US. Chinese also still hold Lincoln in high regard, associating the marque with use by prominent government officials.
2015 Lincoln MKC
Mon, 09 Jun 2014Back in 2012, Lincoln claimed its comeback bid was finally underway with the new-for-2013 MKZ. But don't you believe them - the renaissance won't actually begin in earnest until the shapely compact crossover seen here reaches showrooms in big numbers. That's because while the four-door MKZ was indeed a proper step toward rebirth, the 2015 MKC is the first wholly conceived vehicle under Lincoln as a standalone brand, a move first announced back in 2012.
That's an important distinction, because Lincoln's newfound emancipation from Ford's design and development processes has given the struggling marque both the corporate wherewithal and the will to develop a more fully formed product. The four-wheeled result seen here is a surprisingly cohesive luxury CUV, one with significantly more aesthetic and dynamic separation from its Ford Escape sibling than the MKZ and its Fusion counterpart. Said another way, after flogging Lincoln's latest for hundreds of miles over canyon roads outside of Santa Barbara, we've come to understand that this is far from a re-grilled Dearborn special with luxury tinsel - it's a bona fide standalone product that readily displays the sort of clear differentiation seen in platform cousins like the Audi Q5 and the Volkswagen Tiguan. It's the real deal.
