There was less than 2400 of these built,Lincoln lost money when they made theses cars. The car has 69000 miles. It was originally owned by a Dr in NY when he passed his then girlfriend would not drive it due to the size. It went to another family before it came into my hands. The car was disassembled and not running. The parts were all there and put back on with car. What you have now is a running car. A classic with fresh paint and a one of a kind gold metal flake roof,  The pictures do not do the roof justice. A new holley 600cfm carb was put on, master cylinder was rebuilt. The front lower seat was recently replaced. The headliner needs to be replaced as well as the guage dash needs to be recovered. This car is a head turner and everyone loves it. I have some 30 pictures from when it came to me.  It needs work to be a 10 but it is definately a 6 or better. It has the working town and country am radio, the windows work, the rear left can be balky. Ask any questions.  Vehicle is buyer pickup only.  If shipping is required will help load. The floors are solid there is no rot. The trunk is again solid no rot.  This car is available for inspection in West Haven, CT.  You do not see these cars often, now picture yourself in it.  This is when cars were solid.  It is the largest unibody car ever built, holds the record for most shoulder room.  The front upper bumper was rechromed and is flawless.  Again it is a beauty.

This car has a breezeway window an option that everyone has remarked on, Shifts great, ride is smooth and it is like riding on a cloud. I have resisted the urge to lower the car as it would ne easy without cutting or unbolting anything. The car is listed locallyand I reserve the right to end the auction immediately.  Partial trade may be worked out.

I have had several requests for more pictures.  Please send me your email address and I will send them to you promptly.

Car-crazy 5-year-old boy writes automakers for treasures, gets big response

Fri, Jan 25 2019

Part of the beauty of children is that they can find worth in something adults might deem unworthy or overlook entirely. Five-year-old Patch Hurty didn't see garbage or a broken piece of a car when he spotted a Ford badge lying on the side of a road. He saw an artifact, a souvenir, a start to a collection he could only dream of. Ezra Dyer of Popular Mechanics tells the story of Patch and his quest to turn that one lost badge into a museum of manufacturer logos. According to the article, Hurty is a car fanatic through and through, even using car names as a way of learning to read. After finding the Ford badge near his Connecticut home, he and his mom put together a plan to reach out to dozens of automakers, confessing his love of things on four wheels. In each letter, Patch assembled a picture of himself standing next to one of the cars, and a penny to pay for whatever he hoped was sent his way. The response was unexpectedly and overwhelmingly positive. Of the more than 50 letters he sent out, including to obscure or defunct companies such as Bugatti, Suzuki, and Saturn, a majority responded with warm notes and some type of souvenir. Two of the coolest responses came from Lincoln and Bentley. Lincoln sent a sketch of a Continental (all car lovers enjoy drawing cars, right?), and Bentley sent a wheel center cap. How awesome is that? The story reminds us of something that can easily be lost in all of the negativity involved with the auto industry: Everybody is in this because of a common infatuation with automobiles. For more details on the souvenirs Patch received and accompanying photos, read the rest of the story.

2019 Lincoln Nautilus commercials bring back Matthew McConaughey, plus pool

Fri, Dec 21 2018

It's that time of year again, folks, time for another kind of strange, awkward Matthew McConaughey Lincoln commercial. And, yes, checking back when each ad comes out, it's usually in Decemeber or near the end of the year that these ads are released. This latest ad has the actor hanging out with a group of friends having a generic conversation about something over dinner. They all then head inside, and McConaughey breaks away from the group to walk to a pool table, and he promptly makes a trick shot on the pool table while a woman says "I've never seen that before." This leads to clips of McConaughey getting into a 2019 Lincoln Nautilus and driving it on beautiful backroads. And before he starts driving, there's a shot of the instrument cluster with a bunch of driver aid options displayed. The woman's words come in again, and he follows it up with his own words, "I have." This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Basically, the idea is that the trick shot of the cue ball threading between other billiard balls is like how the Lincoln driver aids help keep the Nautilus under control. Except it's a vague, awkward way of doing it, which is also par (above par?) for the course of McConaughey Lincoln ads. A much better ad accompanies the actor's version. This one features a real trick pool player making some clever shots to illustrate the individual features available on the luxury crossover. They're legitimately nifty shots, and the features are clearly explained. Maybe all of Lincoln's ads should have this pool player. Related Video:
