2000 Lincoln Ls In Silver Frost Clearcoat Metallic on 2040-cars
Fletcher, North Carolina, United States
|
This auction is for a 2000 Lincoln LS equipped with the 3.9 V8. I have had the vehicle for a couple of months. I took the vehicle as payment for some I work I did. The owner had said there was a coolant leak. She stopped driving it and started driving one of her daughters car. I have been driving the car now for the last two months and everything seems to be working great now with the noted exceptions. Here is what I have replaced/rebuilt on the car.
1) The plastic thermostat housing was leaking. I replaced it with the aluminum part that was used in the Jaguar. 2) The water pump was also leaking. I replaced it with an aftermarket part with no plastic in it. 3) The left front wheel bearing/ hub assembly was groaning so that is brand new. 4) The left front door handle on the inside was sloppy so I replaced it with a new metal one. 5) The sun roof has been completely rebuilt with all new moving parts/ cleaned and greased. The drain pipes now have clamps on then so you won't have to worry about leaks. 6) Coolant has been flushed and is new. 7) The wheels are an upgrade from stock. 8) I replaced several of the coil on plug devices. (COPs). One had failed and two others had broken mounting ears. 8) Various light bulbs have been replaced. 9) The air conditioning blows cold. 10) All the electric windows, locks and power seats work. 11) The transmission is great and shifts fine. The car is now a good daily driver. The tires hae about 50-60% of their tread left. Here are the known imperfections or missing items. 1) There is no spare tire. I can locate a steel wheel with a tire on it in a salvage yard if you will be driving any distance after picking up the car. I will charge you what ever it costs me. 2) As can be seen in the pictures the "CHECK ADVANCETRACK" light is on. This is a frequent problem in these cars. The anti-lock brake function still works and the traction control still works. It is up to you to decide if you want to repair this item. 3) The biggest body work dent is at the leading edge of the passenger front door. There are a few other blemishes and the read bumper plastic facade has a crack at the right rear. 4) The heated seats don't work and I did not investigate the cause of that. I had considered keeping this car because I really like the performance and the ride and handling, but I have 4 other vehicles so I just can't justify keeping it. If you have any questions call and I will try to answer them. 828-674-7579. It is a decent honest car now. I have put almost $1000.00 into it since I got it and it should give someone several more years of reliable service. If you are a scammer don't bother. I know all the ruses and won't play along. Payment must be by Paypal, wire transfer or cash. A deposit of $500 is due within 48 hours of winning the auction. If you want the car shipped some where, you will need to arrange for that. |

The UAW's 'record contract' hinges on pensions, battery plants
Thu, Oct 12 2023DETROIT - After nearly four weeks of disruptive strikes and hard bargaining, the United Auto Workers and the Detroit Three automakers have edged closer to a deal that could offer record-setting wage gains for nearly 150,000 U.S. workers. General Motors, Ford Motor and Chrysler parent Stellantis have all agreed to raise base wages by between 20% and 23% over a four-year deal, according to union and company statements. Ford and Stellantis have agreed to reinstate cost-of-living adjustments, or COLA. The companies have offered to boost pay for temporary workers and give them a faster path to full-time, full-wage status. All three have proposed slashing the time it takes a new hire to get to the top UAW pay rate. The progress in contract talks follows the first-ever simultaneous strike by the UAW against Detroit's Big Three automakers. The union began the strike on Sept. 15 in hopes of forcing a better deal from each major automaker. But coming close to a deal is not the same thing as reaching a deal. Big obstacles remain on at least two major UAW demands: restoring the retirement security provided by pre-2007 defined benefit pension plans, and covering present and future joint- venture electric vehicle battery plants under the union's master contracts with the automakers. On retirement, none of the automakers has agreed to restore pre-2007 defined-benefit pension plans for workers hired after 2007. Doing so could force the automakers to again burden their balance sheets with multibillion-dollar liabilities. GM and the former Chrysler unloaded most of those liabilities in their 2009 bankruptcies. The union and automakers have explored an approach to providing more income security by offering annuities as an investment option in their company-sponsored 401(k) savings plans, people familiar with the discussions said. Stellantis referred to an annuity option as part of a more generous 401(k) proposal on Sept. 22. Annuities or similar instruments could give UAW retirees assurance of fixed, predictable payouts less dependent on stock market ups and downs, experts said. Recent changes in federal law have removed obstacles to including annuities as a feature of corporate 401(k) plans, said Olivia Mitchell, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania Wharton School and an expert on pensions and retirement. "Retirees want a way to be assured they won't run out of money," Mitchell said.
Dan Neil pokes fun at the celeb cars of 2014
Sun, Dec 28 2014Look, we try really hard not to pay any attention to the Kardashians and their vapid reality TV empire. But, as troubling as that brood may be, occasionally we're impressed and/or horrified by their four-wheeled conveyances. In fact, that curiosity extends beyond talentless reality stars with rotund glutes to celebs in general. That's why we're enjoying Dan Neil's sometimes biting take on the celebrity cars of 2014. Besides paying tribute to Kim K, husband Kanye West and the adorable Lamborghini that their spawn rides about in, Neil also takes a look at LeBron James' turn as a Kia spokesman and boxer Floyd Mayweather's trio of Bugatti Veyrons. Matthew McConaughey is a focus of Neil's as well, thanks to his oft-panned advertisements for Lincoln (and the raucous parodies they inspired), before finishing on the high, with Jerry Seinfeld and his new Porsche 918 Spyder. Take a look at Neil's recap of the celebrity cars of 2014. News Source: The Wall Street Journal Celebrities Humor Bugatti Kia Lamborghini Lincoln Porsche Videos porsche 918 spyder celebrity dan neil
2017 Lincoln Continental brings 'quiet luxury' to Detroit
Tue, Jan 12 2016Following the concept that debuted in New York the better part of a year ago, the production Lincoln Continental promises to usher in a new era for the Lincoln division and put up a better fight against Cadillac. (Or so, at least its parent company Ford would hope.) To that end, Dearborn's luxury brand promises "an elegant, effortlessly powerful, serene fullsize sedan that delivers quiet luxury to the industry's most discerning customers." That effortless power comes from a twin-turbocharged, 3.0-liter V6 that will produce up to 400 horsepower. Other features include exterior ambient lighting that activates when the driver approaches, hidden electric door handles, and an available panoramic glass panel covering the entire roof. The new Conti also boasts a three-mode suspension and steering system, torque vectoring, adaptive cruise control, a 360-degree camera system, and collision assist with pedestrian detection. Meanwhile the interior offers such amenities as 30-way adjustable front seats, reclining, massaging and climate-controlled rear seats, a Revel audio system, and active noise cancellation. All the features, in short, you'd expect from a luxury sedan, and then some. Only this one will be made in Flat Rock, not imported from overseas. Following its debut at the Detroit Auto Show this week, it will reach dealers in the fall – at which point import and Caddy dealers alike may need to start taking notice. All-New Lincoln Continental Delivers Quiet Luxury: Elegant, Effortlessly Powerful, Serene - Lincoln Motor Company introduces its elegant new flagship – the all-new Continental – coming this fall - Effortless power comes from new 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine that produces a projected 400 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. of torque1; advanced safety technology is also featured - Serene interior offers the comfort of Lincoln's innovative Perfect Position Seat, spaciousness, rear seat amenities, Revel® audio system and top-grade materials DETROIT, Jan. 12, 2016 – Lincoln Motor Company heralds the return of its flagship – the all-new Lincoln Continental – an elegant, effortlessly powerful, serene full-size sedan that delivers quiet luxury to the industry's most discerning customers.
