1997 Lincoln Mark VIII - Metallic Black Paint. Only 19,255 original miles on the car. 


For a 16 year old car it is in excellent condition. 

I bought the car about 2 years ago with 5,995 miles on it, when I purchased the car I had new tires put on the car and had it painted a metallic black (from sitting the paint was badly faded) - there is not another Mark VIII out there like this one! I turn heads every where I go with it. It has just had new brakes and rotors all the way around put on less than 2 months ago and the A/C blows cold.  I have taken pride in keeping this car as perfect as possible.  Oil has been changed every 3,000 miles, seats have had leather conditioner put on them every couple of weeks and the car has always been waxed 2 times a year (just been waxed this week).  I also have only driven in the snow 2 or 3 times (because our other vehicle was broke).  Car has been in a climate controlled garaged since I have owned it.

Most people are wondering why this car being a 1997 has such low miles - The story goes like this - the was towed onto a flat bed tow truck in 1998 and the two wires were pulled from the crank sensor.  No one for 13 years could figure out this simple problem so the car just sat.  I was offered the car and knew an excellent mechanic who told me it was a simple fix (he only works on Fords & Lincolns)  so I bought the car.  Within hours of getting the car he had it running (started on first crank).    I have drove the car for just under 2 years and have had only a couple of minor problems with it (passengers rotor was sticking),  the heat control valve under dash broke but has been fixed and the clock spring is now not working (quit about 6 months ago)  I have been unable to find one, but it is in no way impossible to get one.  I have been looking for a new one but you can put a used one in the car.  

You may e-mail me any questions that you may have and/or phone number to call you.

Car is for sale locally and auction may be ended at anytime.

I am only selling the car because I am now doing craft shows and I needed a truck to carry a tent, grid wall set up and the craft that I make to the shows that I do.

Lincoln to resurrect old nameplates for China?

Wed, 04 Dec 2013

Judging 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.

2002 Lincoln Continental concept should've made production, headed for auction instead

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

It seems like the retro design aesthetic in autos might be petering out, with even a former poster child like the Ford Mustang taking a step in a more modern direction. Sometimes those updates of old-school models really worked well, though. Just take a look above at the Lincoln Continental concept from 2002 that took the extruded shape of the 1960s version and updated it for the new millennium.
Now there's a chance for this gorgeous concept to take a spot in your garage, as RM Auctions is selling it as part of a 130-plus-car, no-reserve auction of the Sam Pack Collection on November 14 and 15, in Dallas, TX. Among the lots for sale are a number of Fords, including several recent concepts from the brand. "My collecting philosophy is simple: buy what I like, but always with an emphasis on quality," Pack said in the auction announcement.
The Continental concept absolutely nails the mix of modern and retro. Its perfectly crisp lines make the shape appear hewn from a single piece of metal, and there's just the slightest ornamentation with the angled, chrome slats in the grille and chrome strips over the wheel arches. It even retains the suicide doors from its inspiration.
