1961 Kennedy Presidential Lincoln Limo ( Oliver Stone Jfk Film) on 2040-cars
Monroe, Michigan, United States
|
This 1961 Lincoln duplicate was constructed in the mid 1980's from a private builder. The builder was provided the original research and blueprints from the Hess Motor Coach Company the original builder of President John F. Kennedy's car. This car is near perfect and was said to be the match to the original by the late Bill Hess who built Kennedy's car. I acquired the "JFK LIMO" over 32 years ago. This car is the most recognizable car int he world! Over the last 20 years the JFK Limo has had a long history in itself.
In 1990 Oliver Stone and Warner Bros. rented the JFK Limo for the film, "JFK". Thru the years JFK Limo did many Hollywood films such as: "Ruby" a Sony Picture, "A Woman Named Jackie" NBC TV, "JFK Inside the Target Car" Discovery, "JFK The Lost Bullet" National Geographic, " Behind The Headlights" Speed TV, " The Watchman", Warner Bros. The JFK limo has been used in many parades and the guest list runs from the Prime Minister of defense of Ireland to the cast of Miami Vice. Over the years this car has been on tour in the private collection called The JFK Experience. From state fairs, home and garden shows to major casinos the JFK limo is the star attraction from all age groups! The car has the ability to make additional financial income when placed in the proper setting and venue. Feel free to contact me for any questions. Please, serious buyers only with financial ability to bid. A great car and a one of a kind that will ever be built. To make this car today would be very expensive and the plans are not available to bring the the authenticity of this car. The original Kennedy Limo was built in 1961 for $200,000.00 dollars. There was no amour plating, no bullet proof tires or other added specialties other then the full custom Presidential Limo details as in this car. The secret service handles, the parade rail and all other special features are from the same blueprints as the original. Truly a car to have in your collection. |

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
2015 Lincoln Navigator puts on a brave face, offers EcoBoost V6 only
Thu, 23 Jan 2014
Lincoln has finally given its SUV a facelift after seven long years.
Seven years is a long time. For the auto industry, though, seven years is an absolute eternity. Most vehicles receive clean-sheet redesigns within the span of seven years, usually getting a facelift of some sort after year three or four. Not Lincoln.
Lincoln's first shipment of cars arrives in China
Mon, 15 Sep 2014It has been two years since Lincoln first announced its plans to expand into China, and the first models destined for sale in the giant automotive market just came off the boat in Shanghai on September 10. It's going to be a few weeks before Chinese buyers actually have the chance to get behind the wheel, though.
The first two models being offered to China are the MKZ and MKC, as seen arriving in these photos, and they are going to be sold at dealers that look more like hotels than traditional showrooms. The first four are opening in Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou in October, with a grand unveiling of the new brand to Chinese consumers later that month. By the end of the year, Lincoln wants to have eight dealers operating in seven cities. By 2016, the automaker wants to have a lineup of five models available in the People's Republic.
"This is the culmination of months of teamwork and collaboration both in North America and here in China," said Robert Parker, President of Lincoln China, in the company's release.
