This car belonged to my Father who I bought it new in 1965. It was always garage kept its entire life and only driven in good weather to parades and special events and occasionally on Sundays.It has 59,231 origional miles on it. It was in perfect running condition when last used in 1982 which was the last time it was inspected in Pennsylvania. He was the only one to drive it and he always babied it. He had the repair manual and always maintained it properly. As far as I remember only the mufflers were replaced at Midas at one time with a Life Time Guarantee. The only thing I did when I removed it from his garage was to clean it off, change the oil and filter. The gas tank had to be cleaned out completly from sitting so long and to get it to run properly. I cleaned the carburator and plugs. The car runs and drives properly now. It has an automatic transmission. 430 V8 engine with air conditioning, clock, 6 way power seats, power steering (steers with one finger) Power brakes, Power windows and vent windows.Padded instrument panel with NO cracks or tears. Remote mirror, Origional Radio and retractable power antenna. The tires are bias from the 80s and need replacing but still stay up. There is NO rot anywhere on the car and it is solid. It has NEVER been in an accident. The chrome is very good and not pitted. There are only several small dents and one in the left rear bumperette. The top is extremely good and has no tears or discoloration. The Leather Seats are in excellent condition and are Not cracked or dried out. I have NOT attempted to drive it very much but the grounds and seals would have to be checked as expected from a car that has sit that long in storage. I do know everything worked when it was origionally parked. This would be a Great car to Restore or use everyday with a good going over. He also had the exact same 1965 LIndoln Continental Hard Top that he had the rocker panels welded in (NO bondo didnt beleive in it) and repainted a sort or cream color. He planned to have the convertible repainted to match and use in weddings for the bride and the hard top for the family. I intend to list the hard top as soon as I can get it running. It was storred in the same garage with the convertible. I have not checked it out completly. I can be reached at (570) 825-7789 between 6 and 8pm Eastern standard time ONLY for anyone who would like to set up an appointment to see it or needs additional information. Please ask for Herb. Thank You for looking. Have a Great Day.

Lincoln's first shipment of cars arrives in China

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

It 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.

Honda poised for growth, Detroit to hold steady, Car Wars study says

Fri, Jun 5 2015

The automotive industry is expected to keep booming in the US over the next several years, but the train might start running out of steam in the long term, according to 2015's Car Wars report from Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy. The forecast focuses on changes between the 2016 and 2019 model years, and the latest trends appear similar in some cases to the past predictions. Sales are expected to keep growing and reach a peak of 20 million in 2018, according to the Detroit Free Press. The expansion is projected to come from a quick pace of vehicle launches, with an average of 48 introductions a year – 26 percent more than in 1996. Crossovers are expected to make up a third of these, maintaining their strong popularity. However, Murphy predicts a decline, as well. By 2025, total sales could fall to around 15 million units. As of May 2015, the seasonally adjusted annual rate for this year stands at 17.71 million. Like last year, Honda is predicted to be a big winner in the future thanks to products like the next-gen Civic. "Honda should be the biggest market share gainer," Murphy said when presenting the report, according to Free Press. Meanwhile, in a situation similar to Car Wars from 2012, a lack of many new vehicles is expected to cause a drop for Hyundai, Kia, and Nissan. Based on this forecast, Ford, General Motors, and FCA US will all generally maintain market share for the coming years. The report does make some future product predictions, though. The next Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra might come in 2019, which is earlier than expected. Also, Lincoln could get a Mustang-based coupe for 2017, a compact sedan for 2018 and an Explorer-based model in 2019, according to the Free Press.
