1962 Lincoln Continental 429 Engine Swap on 2040-cars
Austin, Texas, United States
|
This is a custom car with a 429ci (same block as a 460) motor and
transmission out of a 1969 Thunderbird. I have lost interest and need
the space for other projects. The body is very clean with minimal rust
on the rear fender. Floors and truck pans are original and solid, it is
an original west Texas car. The original power drum brakes have been
completely rebuilt. All front bushings, ball joints and steering
linkage components have been replaced. Interior has been redone and is
super clean. The engine has been rebuilt, about 300 miles, and have
receipts of lots of good and forged parts.
Choppy Comp cam and Flowmaster exhaust, doesn't sound like your typical Lincoln. H-beam rods, studded heads and main caps with windage tray, ported c8ve heads with hardened valve seats, roller rockers, edelbrock air gap intake, quick fuel 750 cfm double pumper carb, forged pistons, 11:1 compression, custom made headers, msd distributor and 6al box, C6 automatic transmission with 2000 rpm stall and a custom aluminum drive-shaft. The car is a project that isn't complete. The c6 transmission leaks out of the front pump seal and the car needs a better cooling system, it runs warm when it is hot outside. The hood will have to be modified to fit over the engine, but I have two of them. The passenger rear window doesn't work, the power seat works but doesn't move the seat, there is no speedo cable and the windshield is cracked. Other minor things need to be connected or done that I cannot remember at this time. This is a super cool car that turns heads every time I drive it. Rides smooth and is fairly quick for a 5000 lbs. car. Please call with any questions five one two 669 zero 8 zero 6. I have the title in my name.

Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected
Thu, 29 May 2014Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013.
Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though.
"Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software."
Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion
Thu, 11 Sep 2014We all had to see this coming. Conan O'Brien has released a parody of Matthew McConaughey's new ads for the 2015 Lincoln MKC and remixed them with lines from one of his most critically acclaimed recent roles.
The now much darker commercial probably isn't how Lincoln would prefer the MKC to be marketed, but really in a few of the actual ads, McConaughey already seems moments away from breaking into a full Rustin Cohle from True Detective impression. The cadence and tone of his voice are just so close to that character, especially in the one where he's talking to the bull standing in the middle of the road. It very nearly verges on parody anyway; Conan is just turning all of this up to 11.
It's a little surprising that the writers didn't dig a little deeper into the McConaughey oeuvre for the parody. Maybe McConaughey could have taken the MKC for a party at the Moon Tower from Dazed and Confused. In any case, it's worth a quick watch, so check it out.
2015 Lincoln Navigator ready to roll for $62,475*
Wed, 21 May 2014Fancy picking up a refreshed Lincoln Navigator? Well, prepare to shell out at least $62,475. That's a whopping increase of $6,310 for the now-EcoBoost-equipped SUV.
That's just for the two-wheel-drive Select model, though. Want to drive all four wheels? Better have an extra $3,575 laying around. Snagging the top-of-the-line Reserve model, meanwhile, demands a premium of $7,500.
For those extra bills, you'll net Lincoln Drive Control, complete with continuously controlled dampers, power running boards, Ziricote wood interior trim, upgraded leather, 22-inch wheels, a "unique" interior headliner and, of course, a "Reserve" badge.
