1962 Lincoln Continental

Up for sale is a great example of an iconic American luxury classic that only continues to increase in value and rarity as times goes on. I've had the pleasure of owning this Continental for a few years now and have done much work to it. It has a freshly rebuilt engine with less than 500 miles since it was dropped in last year. The car drives excellent and has plenty of power to move when you need to. It drives and handles very easy with the factory comfort of power steering and power brakes. These cars are getting harder and harder to find every year and especially in this condition. It's ready to be enjoyed as is and used as a weekend cruiser or daily driver. I have a clean CA title in hand with current registration until August 2014. The car is titled under my name and I'm ready to make a deal with the winning bidder.

I bought the Lincoln about 3 years ago from a Navy friend of mine and have slowly done most of the restoration work to it. The car had been in the previous owner's family since new and I am only the third registered owner. It still has the factory engine and transmission which were rebuilt just last year. I paid $3,000 to have the original 430 rebuilt alone. Car starts on first key turn and doesn't have any mechanical issues. Transmission shifts nice and smooth as well. Interior was all done last year including seat upholstery, headliner, replaced all wood trim, dash detail, trunk carpet, and polished some of the interior trim parts. Dash pad is original and uncracked which is very rare for these cars. Car has all original chrome and stainless steel trim and nothing is missing. Bumpers are original and so is most of the trim, only a few parts have been polished and re-chromed. The car's interior is black leather from factory but the exterior was changed from its original "caspian gold" color to black about 5 years ago. Paint looks good for being a few years old. It has a few paint imperfections from use over the years but nothing major. This car has always been in dry California weather and there are no signs of rust issues anywhere on the car. It's very solid and doors open & close great with no sagging. Car has great lines and spacing between fenders, hood, trunk, and doors. Most of the electrical works including all 4 windows, interior lights, exterior lights, turn signals, wipers, and gauges. The seat only moves forward and back so the control switch needs a rebuild, original AM radio needs new speaker hooked up, and A/C system is due for a service. It blew cold air when I first got the car years ago but since the engine was rebuilt I never got a chance to recharge the system again. Everything is there and the blower system inside the car works perfect. Car has stock suspension but looks lowered because of the smaller tires. I would suggest maybe adding some larger white-wall Cooker tires down the line to give it that factory stance. Car drives and handles well at all speeds. This is not a trailer queen with a $10k paint job or nut and bolt restoration. It's a nice driver quality classic that can be enjoyed as is or used as a platform for someone looking to do a full resto on a 62.

Car is available for inspection during the listing so send me a message with your contact info and I will call you to set up an appointment. It's being sold in AS IS condition with no warranty just like any other classic car. Please ask questions if you are unsure of anything prior to bidding. The only payment methods I will accept are cash in person, bank wire transfer, or cashiers check but the car stays until your check clears my bank account. This is a NO RESERVE listing and it will sell to the highest bidder no matter what it ends at. View my feedback and bid with confidence. Thanks!

Lincoln Chauffeur service will drive you around and do your shopping

Wed, Apr 12 2017

Lincoln is launching a unique service in Miami this year called Lincoln Chauffeur, and it does exactly what you'd expect. Any Lincoln owner can request someone via an app to come to their house and drive him or her wherever they'd like. That driver will then drive the car back. Lincoln pointed out this will allow other household members to use the car, and even helps avoid having to pay for parking when going to the airport. A representative said that a driver could be sent to a bar or restaurant to pick up a car left in favor of a cab after drinking. In addition to driving you to a location, the driver can also go and fill up your Lincoln with fuel and run other errands. Need some groceries? Your Lincoln driver can do that. And the Lincoln drivers are employed and vetted by Lincoln. If you find a driver you like, you can also request that person and Lincoln will try to accommodate your request. The service is currently in the pilot stage and only available in Miami. The next city that will get access to the service is San Diego. However, the plan is to continue expanding. It's also available for all Lincoln owners, new and old, not just members of Lincoln Black Label. Buyers of any new Lincoln will be given the equivalent of eight hours free in the service. This is a significant perk, since Lincoln said the estimated cost is $30 per hour of use at the current pilot pricing. Related Video:

Ford recalls 600,000 older-model sedans for braking issue

Fri, Dec 20 2019

Ford is recalling 600,166 older-model Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles over an issue that could affect braking and increase the risk of a crash. The safety recall covers certain Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln MKZ sedans from the 2006 through 2010 model years that were built at Ford’s Hermosillo Assembly Plant in Mexico between Feb. 22, 2006, and July 15, 2009. Ford says a valve that is normally closed inside the hydraulic control unit may get stuck in the open position or be slow to close, which could make it harder to engage the brakes and increase risk of a crash. Ford says itÂ’s aware of 15 reports of accidents and two injuries possibly related to the issue. Dealers will inspect the hydraulic control unit for signs of the problem and replace it, if necessary. The dealers will pressure-flush the system with brake fluid and replace the reservoir cap with a new one. Ford is also issuing a small recall of 33 of its 2020 F-150 trucks in the U.S. and 51 in Canada over potentially damaged spare tires. It says the bead area on the tires may have been damaged when it was mounted onto the wheel assembly, leaving it vulnerable to corrosion, separation of the bead wire and ultimately a rapid loss of air pressure and detachment from the wheel. Dealers will replace the spare tire. Affected vehicles were built at the Dearborn Truck Plant from Nov. 10-21 of this year.

Lincoln releases power and economy ratings for 2015 MKC with 2.3L EcoBoost

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

As the first 2015 MKC crossovers slip into dealerships, Lincoln has confirmed power and fuel economy ratings for the compact crossover's optional 2.3-liter Ecoboost four-cylinder engine.
The new range-topping powerplant, thus far otherwise unavailable in the Blue Oval kingdom, will net a healthy 285 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 305 pound-feet of torque from 2,750 revs. Those figures represent gains of 10 hp and 5 lb-ft over earlier estimates, putting the handsome new compact CUV in the hunt with up-engined rivals from Audi and BMW. (A variant of the 2.3L will shortly find its way into the engine bay of the 2015 Ford Mustang, albeit with a number of key changes, including north-south orientation.)
In the MKC, the new engine will net 18 miles per gallon in the city and 26 on the highway with standard all-wheel drive, meaning it only loses a single mile per gallon in the city cycle versus the 240-hp, 270-lb-ft 2.0L EcoBoost model when fitted with all-wheel drive. Both engines rely on the same six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission.
