1960 Lincoln Continental Mark V Convertible Barn Find 42k Mile Original on 2040-cars
Cincinnati, Ohio, United States
|
Here's a great '60 Continental convertible project. The car runs and drives, but needs fuel system and brake work. It shows 42k miles which we believe to be original. It has exterior rust on the quarters and rockers, but the unibody is solid and I see no structural issues. Please read below for more details and photos.
This car was donated to Goodwill by a long term owner in the early 1990s, and purchased by a collector who kept in dry storage from then until 2013. I've owned it for the last year but have several projects ahead of it and I'm out of storage space. Body shows one repaint in the original diamond blue, with black leather interior. It is currently running off a gas can but the motor feels strong and smooth. Trans goes into gear and I've driven it around the yard. Brakes need rebuilt. Tires are fair but hold air. There is rust in the lower quarters and rockers, and the driver's floor pan has a hole near the toeboard. Passenger front floor is soft but the rest of the floors look ok. Trunk floor is solid, door bottoms are good. Hood lip is rusted through. Trunk lid is solid. Structurally, the inner rockers and frame rails are solid and I don't see any rust damage. The undercoating is peeling off but underneath its solid.
Fender skirts are included - one has a small hole at the bottom. Spare wheel has been cleaned and primed. The jack and spare tire holddown are in the trunk. Top has a couple holes but is intact. Electricals will need some attention - drivers window and power vent windows work fine, other windows try to work. Top motor tries to work but doesn't do much - the motors and relays will probably need cleaned and lubed. Windshield has a couple light wiper scuffs but no cracks that I can see. Side and rear glass looks ok also. She has a lot of potential and I hope she finds a good home. All questions are welcome. The Lincoln is located in New Richmond, Ohio, just east of Cincinnati. I may be able to deliver for a reasonable fee, or at least put the buyer in touch with a transporter. $500 deposit due at the end of the auction, and payment terms are flexible. We can store the car for up to a month if necessary. Clear Ohio title. International bids welcome. Thanks for looking!

Lincoln MKC prototype spied out testing
Wed, 20 Mar 2013As was the case with the Lincoln MKZ, it appears that Lincoln isn't wasting any time getting its newest model transformed from concept to production form. We just saw the MKC Concept earlier this year at the Detroit Auto Show, and based on these spy shots, it looks like the final touches are being put in place for the 2014 Lincoln MKC crossover.
Sharing its platform with the Ford Escape, we can definitely see some similarities between these two compact crossovers when it comes to the roofline and daylight opening, but through the heavy camouflage, Lincoln's signature split-wing grille can easily be seen and it looks like the concept's taillights will also make it to reality. On the disappointing side, it looks like the integrated exhaust outlets are being ditched for some round outlets, and we can't tell if the production version will keep the Audi-like clamshell rear liftgate.
Matthew McConaughey dusts off his Lincoln Lawyer jacket [w/videos]
Thu, 21 Aug 2014Alright, alright, alright. Easygoing Texan Matthew McConaughey has enjoyed a career renaissance recently with critically acclaimed roles in Dallas Buyers Club and True Detective, and the actor has just signed a multi-year deal with Lincoln to become the luxury brand's spokesperson. The first ads starring McConaughey should hit televisions and the internet soon.
McConaughey's campaign has his pitching starting out with the company's pivotal new 2015 Lincoln MKC compact crossover. "Lincoln is an iconic, American brand and I like where they are heading with their transformation," he said in the announcement of the deal. The appears to be really throwing some money into these ads, too. Not only has it hired A-list talent in front of the camera, Nicolas Winding Refn, best known for Drive, is directing the spots.
Of course, this won't be McConaughey's first noteworthy ride in a Lincoln. Back in 2011, he starred in The Lincoln Lawyer, a legal thriller about at attorney would did business out of a 1980s Town Car. The MKC should certainly prove to be a much better driver than that.
2021 Lincoln Navigator Review | The new land yacht
Fri, Nov 6 2020The 2021 Lincoln Navigator is true American luxury done in a distinct and proper fashion. It’s LincolnÂ’s flagship product with the highest level of opulence and glamour that a truck can possibly offer. The Navigator isn't just a dressed-up F-150 or Expedition with makeup on, either. ThereÂ’s still mechanically related to that pair with a truck chassis riding on an independent rear suspension hiding underneath, but everything above is pure, luxe bliss. YouÂ’d be hard pressed to find elements missing from the NavigatorÂ’s formula in this latest generation of the SUV that came out in 2018. The interior is elegance turned up to the max with a design that evokes old-world charm while fully embracing modernity. ItÂ’s not trying to be youthful or edgy. Instead, the Navigator exudes a quiet, grown-up confidence that looks expensive and high class. It brings the guests to the table by adopting its own language of classical luxury, then keeps them there with the tech and capability we expect in a truck approaching a six-figure price. Three rows, two different lengths, one seriously powerful engine and truck-level towing capacity makes the Navigator a heady choice for the luxury truck buyer who wants to do everything with one big vehicle. WhatÂ’s new for 2021? Changes for 2021 consist of new paint colors and minor equipment adjustments. Lincoln has added Asher Gray, Flight Blue, Green Gem and Signature Navy to the paint options. But itÂ’s also deleted Iced Mocha, Silver Jade, Blue Diamond and Rhapsody Blue. Both the limited-slip differential and heavy-duty trailer tow package have also been made standard on the Black Label. WhatÂ’s the interior and in-car technology like? The standard and Reserve Navigators are mighty luxurious on their own (including the interior shown in the top two photos above), but if you step up to an expensive Black Label trim, youÂ’re in for an absolute treat. Its interior offers a choice of “Themes” that go far beyond the usual color choices of black, beige and gray, with maybe a different wood type or two. Of the three, "Chalet" is the most conventional with its blend of tan and black, but the oxblood red "Destination" (above bottom-left) and cool blue "Yacht Club" (above bottom-right) are unlike anything offered by another brand (OK, maybe you could special order a Bentley or Rolls-Royce).
