I am reluctantly offering for sale my beautifully restored 1958 Lincoln Continental Mark III convertible.  I acquired this magnificent classic automobile from a well known west coast car collector in 2007 at which time the majority of the restoration had already just been completed.  It had always been a rust free California car.  I then proceeded to systematically take the car to another level by investing more money and an inestimable amount of my own time to lovingly bring this vehicle to its current state of form and function.  Virtually every component is new or rebuilt.  This awesome Lincoln functions as good as it looks due to the considerable amount of time I have taken to ensure that it runs, drives, handles, tracks, and brakes superbly.  If desired this Lincoln can be driven anywhere with confidence and it performs amazingly well.  Since being restored the only miles the car has been driven have been the test miles required to bring it up to its current status.  I would certainly consider my 1958 Lincoln to be one of the finest driving automobiles in its class and one of the nicest overall in terms of fit, finish, and driving pleasure.  Body gaps are perfect and there are no annoying squeaks or rattles.  I acquired this car to be a show car but more than that I expected it to drive perfectly as well and it was meant to be a keeper for life.  Due to current circumstances I would like to offer this wonderful collectible car for sale.  I will most likely not have the experience of enjoying the fruits of my labor but the next owner will absolutely be delighted with this fine motorcar.  I will sell this vehicle worldwide and have sold to Europe in the past.  Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements but I will help with whatever is necessary on this end to ensure a smooth transaction.  Thanks for looking.

Ford recalling 205k Edge and Lincoln MKX units for possible corrosion

Thu, 30 Oct 2014

After the horrible weather last winter, it's hard to look forward for the season to return this year. For those readers in much of the country, the snow is going to be flying soon, and with it comes salt on the roads. That means Ford's regional recall for the 2007-2008 Edge and Lincoln MKX arrives at the perfect time because they are at risk for corrosion.
The campaign covers 204,448 examples of the models in 21 states, plus the District of Columbia and some provinces of Canada. In total there are 186,024 vehicles in need of repair in the US and 18,424 in Canada.
According to Ford, it's possible for the area, "under the reinforcement brackets where the fuel tank is mounted" to corrode. If this happens, there might be a gas smell in the vehicle or even a fuel leak could develop. In fact, the automaker reports that one fire could be related to the problem but no injuries or accidents are reported.
