New Black Paint

This is a very nice 64 Lincoln. It just went through a complete cosmetic restoration. Originally a peach color, the owner decided to give it this classic triple black look.

The paint , interior, and top are all very recently completed.

This is a beautiful Lincoln Continental. You can't help but be reminded of the reasons it was so classy. Used for government and corporate use, the Lincoln was a very popular car in the 60s.

The top operation on these cars is a show stopper in itself.

All in all, over a period of 3 years, this car has had approximately $25,000. invested in it's restoration. Cosmetically it still has a few things that could be done to bring it to an even higher level, but it's a very nice car as it sits.

The owner chose the look of the wide white wall tires, purchased from our friend Wallace Wade.

The new Continental's most recognized trademark, front-opening rear "suicide doors". This was a purely practical decision. The new Continental rode on a wheelbase of 123 inches (3,100 mm), and the doors were hinged from the rear to ease ingress and egress. When the Lincoln engineers were examining the back seats that styling had made up, the engineers kept hitting the rear doors with their feet. Hinging the doors from the rear solved the problem. The doors were to become the best-known feature of 1960s Lincolns.

To simplify production, all cars were to be four-door models, and only two body styles were offered, sedan and convertible.

There are plenty of convertibles out there to be had, but there were very few that can sit 6 large adults in luxury and style in the 60's as this auto can. Even today, it would be hard to match.

You have amp, fuel, temp, and oil pressure gauges to help keep tabs of engine vitals.

The major interior components are original. The only thing that was installed new is the upholstery.

There are receipts for the interior seats, door panels, sun visors, and various other panels showing the improvements and money spent.

The engine has been rebuilt, all brakes have been replaced, the fuel tank was dropped and cleaned and lined and much more. The car came to us as a very original car that had not run in a while and the owner started with mechanical restoration.

There are receipts of over $2000.00 spent on the rebuilding of the engine, and $800.00 on brake work. There is also new wires, plugs, rotor kit, and radiator.

The undercarriage is original but solid.

Lincoln's $5B revival bid hinges upon new D6 chassis

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

It's no secret that Lincoln has received short shrift from the Ford Motor Company for years, and former CEO Alan Mullay even wanted to kill the whole thing off when he ran things. Today, things appear to be trending in a different direction. Fresh investment has helped enable a sizable marketing push for its well-regarded MKC compact crossover, a couple of awards for the company and plant the seeds for a major expansion into China. While the situation is still in the early going, it looks like Lincoln is on a tentative (if long) path towards a turnaround. If new reports are accurate, the brand is poised to build on that momentum with its largest investment in new products in years thanks in large measure to a new modular platform codenamed D6.
According to four unnamed insiders speaking to Reuters, FoMoCo is investing over $5 billion over the next five years, partially to create a new modular platform to underpin multiple Lincoln vehicles - and possibly some Ford products, too. Development is reportedly being overseen by the division's new boss, Kumar Galhotra. At the moment, specific details about the D6 chassis aren't yet known, but it's rumored to have the flexibility to support front-, rear- and all-wheel drive vehicles. According to Reuters, the first model using the framework could be an MKZ replacement and seven-passenger MKT successor in 2019.
Until the D6-based models hit, expect to see continued expansion from Lincoln. Ford management isn't trying to turn around the division overnight and is planning "in terms of generations of products," according to current CEO Mark Fields. The strategy unsurprisingly includes a production version of Lincoln's recent MKX Concept, as well as an all-new Navigator using aluminum-intensive architecture. Reuters also claims the MKS is due for renewal in the meantime, including with a longer-wheelbase version to appeal to the brand's new Chinese buyers.

Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.

Woman keying luxury car caught on tape

Thu, Nov 12 2015

Toronto police are on the hunt for a disguised woman who was caught on camera Sunday keying a car. The woman sported a red bandana over her face and baseball cap as she ran up to the Lincoln MKS in a driveway, the Toronto Star reported. She then went to town with a sharp object, gleefully scratching the car's paint job. She runs off after nearly a minute of enthusiastic damage. Police believe the victim and the vandal know each other, since the Lincoln is the only car in the neighborhood she hit. This is also the third time this particular car has been damaged. They suspect this woman is responsible for the previous incidents. Toronto police told the Star that it will likely cost Lincoln owner thousands to have his car repaired. Security cameras are great for catching vandals in the act, though the videos are difficult for any car enthusiast to watch. Take for instance this video from London in April of a man scratching an Aston Martin while pushing a baby stroller. News Source: The Toronto Star Lincoln Videos vandalism scratch
