Drive in style and comfort in this classic luxury car from the muscle car era! For sale is a good condition 1970 Lincoln Mark III. In their prime the Lincoln Mark III and the Cadillac Eldorado battled it out for luxury car supremacy with the Mark III winning the battle.
This particular car has been garage kept since it was bought a few years ago at a Ford dealership in Chicago. The car drove from Chicago to Green Bay and has since seen a lot of updates done. Those updates include:
-Carburetor rebuilt
-Passenger side exhaust manifold replaced (drivers side included with the sale)
-Timing chain and gears
-Timing cover and gasket
-Water pump
-Thermostat
-Belts
-Brake master cylinder
-Windshield washer reservoir
-Plugs, wires, cap, rotor, pcv valve
This car has been to many car shows and taken home some trophies, but it's best to be placed in a "diamond in the rough" type of category.
Some items needing attention include:
-Needs paint. The car looks great from 10 feet and gets a lot of attention. People have stopped to take pictures of the car. However, up close you can see areas where the wrong color white touch-up bottle was used.
-Small amounts of rust that appear to be minor. The drivers door has the worst patch and I included a picture of it. There is also some bubbling under the vinyl top and a small amount on the trunk.
-Turn signal arm needs replacing. A used replacement will be included free (originally bought for $350) with the vehicle sale.
-Passenger door arm rest needs a screw replaced
-Passenger power seat moves in all directions except reverse
-Passenger door needs a new hinge
-Both rear power windows in-op.
-Power antenna in-op
-Blower motor needs replacement (Mechanic has informed me the A/C may work as everything gets cold. We just don't know, because the blower motor doesn't work).
This Lincoln Mark III can be trusted to drive anywhere! The only reason I'm selling the car is so I can purchase a newer body style Ford Mustang. This car is equipped with 8-track, A/C, and cruise control.
If you have any questions, please ask! I've tried to be as honest as possible in the description of this vehicle. A $500 non refundable deposit is due within 3 days of the auction ending. The buyer is responsible to pay the balance within 7 days and pick up the car within 14 days of auction ending. Deposit will be accepted via PayPal or Cash. Final payment will be accepted only via Cash.

Hyundai, Kia, Genesis and Subaru clean up in IIHS 2018 safety ratings
Thu, Dec 7 2017Hyundai, its partner Kia and its Genesis division are the big winners in the latest vehicle safety ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, accounting for six of the 15 models that earned the Top Safety Pick+ awards for 2018. Subaru was right behind with four, Mercedes-Benz had two, and Toyota, BMW and Ford each had one. Another 47 vehicles earned the Top Safety Pick designation, where Toyota had 10 vehicle models, with Hyundai recognized for nine models. All but one of the seven vehicles in Subaru's lineup, the BRZ, qualified for one of the awards. IIHS strengthened the criteria for the Top Safety Pick+ award for 2018 to require headlights to earn a "good" rating — an "acceptable" rating was previously enough to notch the "plus" award — and good or acceptable passenger-side protection in the small overlap front crash, which replicates a crash involving just the front corner of a vehicle. It also required vehicles to have acceptable or good headlights for the first time to earn a Top Safety Pick award. Most of winners for both awards qualified on the basis of optional upgrades. IIHS in October began evaluating the passenger side of vehicles in its small overlap front crash test after it said it became clear that automakers were neglecting that side of the vehicle as they focused on improving driver-side protections. IIHS first began conducting driver-side small overlap crashes in 2012. It began measuring both how well low and high beams illuminated the road and the amount of glare they produce for oncoming vehicles as part of its ratings in 2016. The Top Safety Pick+ winners are listed below. The list doesn't include any minivans, pickups or minicars, which don't appear on either list of awardees. Small cars Kia Forte Kia Soul Subaru Impreza (sedan and wagon) Subaru WRX Midsize cars Subaru Legacy Subaru Outback Toyota Camry Large luxury cars BMW 5 series Genesis G80 Genesis G90 Lincoln Continental Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan Midsize SUVs Hyundai Santa Fe Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Midsize luxury SUV Mercedes-Benz GLC The full list of Top Safety Pick winners is available here.Related Video: Image Credit: IIHS BMW Genesis Hyundai Kia Lincoln Subaru Toyota Safety Crossover SUV Wagon Sedan crash test

Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy
Tue, 07 May 2013With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.
