1961 Lincoln convertible. Purchased from an estate, this car was in storage for almost 20 years. It was represented to me, by the former owners friend, that the miles are actual but I cannot verify. Beautful black leather interior is in remarkable condition with leather soft and flexible and seat padding soft and firm. Dash and pad are near perfect. Carpet is new but the rest of the interior is original and very nice. Body is sound with some very light rust in isolated spots (see photos) but no rust-through anywhere on car. Right quarter appears to have had some body work done above the rear wheel. Car has been repainted it's original white but paint is a ten footer or a nice driver. Grille is perfect. Brightwork all in good condition. Tailight will be replaced before end of auction. Car runs, drives and shifts very well and could be driven anywhere with a new set of tires. Brake system has been overhauled. Fluids changed and fuel system cleaned. All lights and electrical components work correctly including all power windows and power seat. Radio, heater, speedometer, wipers and all gauges work correctly. Power top and trunk lift work correctly. Vacumn power locks do not work. Top is original and probably will need to be replaced in the future. Car is located in Austin, Mn. and available for a test drive anytime during the auction. If you cannot inspect before end of auction the buyer, after paying deposit via paypal, will have ten days to inspect and pay for the car. If the buyer upon inspection does not want the car for any reason one-half of his deposit will be refunded. I will assist in locating shipping for the buyer if needed. Any questions please e-mail or call 507 279-0752. John

Five vehicles named Top Safety Pick+ including new Civic, MKZ
Fri, 08 Mar 2013In an attempt to help push vehicle safety to a higher level, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety created a stricter Top Safety Pick+ rating last year, which incorporates a brutal small overlap test and requires cars to get Good ratings in four out of the five categories (and no less than Acceptable in the fifth). Joining the list of the safest cars of 2013, the 2013 Volvo XC60, Lincoln MKZ, Honda Civic (sedan and coupe) and the 2014 Mazda6 have all received the coveted TSP+ rating.
The Mazda6 and Lincoln MKZ have both been completely redesigned, and both received Acceptable ratings in the small overlap test. The Honda Civic, coming off its emergency refresh for 2013, is the first small car to be subjected to the small overlap test, and IIHS says that one of the car's many upgrades includes a stiffer front structure allowing it to receive Good ratings in all categories. Similarly, the XC60 gets all Good ratings thanks to, according to IIHS, Volvo updating the airbag software allowing the side airbags to inflate during the small overlap test.
The 2014 Subaru Forester has not yet been subjected to the small overlap test, so it must make do with just a Top Safety Pick rating until the IIHS tests small utility vehicles, which is expected to happen later in the spring.
Car-crazy 5-year-old boy writes automakers for treasures, gets big response
Fri, Jan 25 2019Part 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. Related Video: News Source: Popular Mechanics Read This Bentley Bugatti Ford Lincoln Saturn Suzuki
