We are proud to offer for sale a rare 1966 Lincoln 4 Door Convertible VIN # 6Y86G413847, one of a limited
production run of 3180 produced in 1966. We acquired this car in April of 2010. This car has been in restoration
for almost 6 years, the car was recently completed and just this June Bakers Auto of CT went over the whole car and
made all the necessary repairs to make sure this is a reliable and truly original 66 Lincoln. It took us months to
find the correct car and this vehicle was a clean rust free, complete car with original paint and no prior body
work. We have restored this car to its original condition; only a few small things have been upgraded like the
brake master cylinder, AC converted to R134A, Dynamat added to the floor panel, and exterior color changed to
black; otherwise this car is completely original. No expense was spared to use NOS or rebuilt parts to keep the
cars originality and to make sure it drives and works like new, just like it was in 1966. All original parts were
saved and will be passed on to the new owner. This was not a frame off restoration but came very close to it.
Please review all the pictures and you will observe that the engine and transmission were removed and parts around
them were sand blasted and coated in either paint or POR-15 to protect the chassis and frame cross members from
rust. The only sheet metal part that had to be cut off and replaced was the battery tray; for some odd reason Ford
used cheap metal to make the trays therefore they always have to be replaced. At this time the vehicle has been
driven over 800 miles since it was put together. Each mile driven was used to make adjustments and fine tune it,
Bakers Auto put on about 150 miles while testing driving the car. We are confident to say that this car can be
driven cross-country without any hesitation; we did 250 mile just to bring the car back from Bakers Auto no issues
at all. Below we will do our best to make a list of parts and work done to the vehicle. The car is painted in
Global PPG Color BMW black sapphire metallic 475. The clear is a PPG DELTRON 4000 the car has four coats all
around. The interior is done in white leather with black piping; the carpet is made by Jim Wallace of Leather
Restorations in Florida the only company making an exact carpet specifically made for this car and has a the
original rubber padding with the Lincoln logo like the car had when new. The top is also made by Jim Wallace and is
an exact replica of the factory top with padding to hide the wires. The top received all brand new
weather-stripping; it took over 6 months to receive the handmade parts and the top weather stripping kit alone
costs over $4K. The entire top and window electronics work like new: all of the window switches have been replaced
and all new window motors installed. The rear windows roll down half way when you open the doors and roll up when
the doors are closed. All of the hydraulic top motors were replaced, with brand new parts. All of the rubber
moldings and padding all around the car are brand new. Over $8k has been spent just on the weather stripping. The
engine was rebuilt by Complete Engine Rebuilding in NY in 2013. The transmission was rebuilt in July of 2015 by
Dolphin Transmissions of NY. We supplied a complete Fatsco rebuilt kit so everything including the valve body was
replaced. The cooling system is all brand new including the radiator, expansion tanks and all the hoses. The fuel
system was completely rebuild with new filter and most of the lines replaced. The carburetor was rebuild using all
original parts by J.C. Carburetor of NY, the fuel pump was rebuild by Bakers Auto in CT and the Fuel Tank by
Liberty Auto In NY. The AC system has been updated to R134A: every part from the condenser, AC compressor, hoses,
expansion valves are brand new; the only rebuilt part is the evaporator. Just this June Bakers tested the AC
system. The rear leaf springs and the suspension were rebuilt as well using all new bushings, shocks and bolts; all
parts were provided by Bakers Auto and the work was done by Long Life Auto Spring in NY. The front end is
completely new: most parts were brand new NOS; the calipers and the control arms we rebuilt since no replacements
are available. The brake system has all brand new lines, the brake booster was updated. Bakers adjusted and
replaced some parts just this June. The power steering system has been rebuilt with all new hoses and filters the
system was checked over and tested by Bakers in June. The exhaust system is Stainless Steel and is completely new
with new headers. The wheels were all sandblasted and powder coated in black to match the car. The tires were put
on this June, Coker Tires brand American Classic 235/75/15 white walls brand new with less than 200 miles on them;
we added the warranty from Coker that will pass on to the new owner . The spare wheel was also repaired and
sandblasted in the grey original factory color; a brand new tire for the spare wheel installed. The trunk has a
brand new upholstery kit also manufactured by Jim Wallace. All of the chrome and steel parts were sent out to S & H
Chrome Refinishing in Tennessee: we have over $16K in re-chromed parts. We are confident we have not mentioned even
half the improvement and restoration work that was done on this vehicle. If you have any questions about a
particular part or how certain repair was completed, we have documented the process and can answer any questions
and address all concerns. The receipts for labor and parts add up to much more than what we are asking for the car
but at this time we must let this one go…

Surprise! More Ford and Lincoln cars found with marijuana

Thu, Jul 27 2017

Ford is starting to have a serious problem on its hands. Today, ABC 7 in Detroit reported that another batch of Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars were found packed with 227 pounds of marijuana. This is a little over a week after Fords in Ohio were found stuffed with marijuana and only about two months after Fords in Minnesota were found full of weed. All of the cars traveled on train from Mexico to their destination. All in, several thousand pounds and several million dollars worth of marijuana has been discovered. According to the report, Immigration and Customs Enforcement found the cars at the Ford Rail Distribution Facility in Woodhaven, Michigan, just south of Ford's world headquarters in Dearborn. ICE became involved after a Ford employee reported the cars to Woodhaven police. It's unclear when and where the cars were packed with marijuana. With the cars in Minnesota, it's believed that the weed was added after leaving the factory but before being loaded on the train. Spare tires were removed and the space was used to smuggle the marijuana. Related Video:

Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.
