1966 Lincoln Continental Base 7.6l - One Owner 45 Years, 90,000 Miles Genuine on 2040-cars
Portland, Oregon, United States
|
For Sale my survivor 1966 Lincoln Continental Car was owned by the ex president of Oregan Bank and the founder of the Rotary car club from 1966 to 2012. I purchase the car with intentions of keeping it but am currently building a new bike and room is limited. Hard decision but if it doesn't go I wont be to bothered either, its a buzz to drive! Body is in great original condition with paint thining in the odd area, quite a rust free body and with that you are 90% where you want to be. Engine runs great and is unmodified, not been thrashed and pulls well. Gearbox shifts fine and does what it should. Air con not working at present - may need a simple regas? Good tyres, suspensions is lounge chair like as a typical Lincoln would be. Brakes pull up OK but you need a strong leg! Electric seat option which works fine, sometimes electric windows can be temperamental, might be the contacts or switch? Over all very original car with a great history, new owner would be happy - 8 track works fine and I have some Elvis tapes on hand for the new owner.
These cars are getting harder to find in this condition and are getting more collectable - suicide doors man - c'mon! Last one, a 1968 on ebay auction went for $6,800 and it was no where as good as this one with torn seats, fair body and double the mileage. Get yourself a good one with some history and a good body (garaged all its life).
Comes with orignal manual and receipts for all mechanical maintenance. Curren Portland OR Tags..............Drive Away. |

McConaughey stars in new round of Lincoln ads
Thu, Aug 20 2015Matthew McConaughey's ruminative commercial work with the Lincoln MKC, MKZ, and MKZ Hybrid showed us a side of Lincoln we didn't know existed, and a bunch of spoofs made us laugh about it. Most importantly, though, the partnership worked, leading to a double-digit increase in sales and millions of hits in brand exposure. That's why the actor and the automaker are back together, McConaughey scheduled to return in a new commercial campaign launching September 2 for the 2016 Lincoln MKX. He'll give up the air of cosmopolitan sage, because these ads "dial up the swagger factor" according to Lincoln's group marketing manager John Emmert. Introduced earlier this year at the Detroit Motor Show, the brand put a lot of work into the all-new model, said to be "much improved in how it rides, steers, brakes and looks," offering a more powerful engine, and at least 36 new features including adaptive lighting. Ford's first production implementation of adaptive steering, and Harman's first automobile application of Revel audio will bow with the mid-sized crossover. On top of all that, it's also got that lower price. Emmert said the McConaughey ads will point out "the technology and the beauty of the vehicle." Lincoln will buy time during NFL games as part of the campaign. We have no doubt the anticipation from YouTube and a few celebrity rascals is already high. Related Video:
Farley says Lincoln learnings in China could influence brand in US
Tue, 14 May 2013Automotive News reports Lincoln is looking to Chinese luxury shoppers for customer service ideas. Those notions may eventually make their way back to the US in the form of new dealership training. Jim Farley, the executive vice president of global marketing for Ford, tells Automotive News, "In many ways, China will be a listening post for Lincoln in the United States. Soon China will be the largest luxury market in the world." Farley also said that in China, the Lincoln brand is currently where Lexus was when the Japanese brand first landed in the US.
Lincoln is slated to open its first Chinese dealerships in 2014. The brand is largely unknown in Asia, and Lincoln representatives have been visiting other luxury dealers in China for an idea of what buyers there expect. Lincoln has also studied non-automotive luxury shopping, paying special attention to high-end retail branding.
Of course, this whole song and dance feels awfully familiar. Lincoln has focused heavily on remaking the brand and recrafting its marketing here in the States, thus far without sufficient product to back the play. Lincoln is already late to the China game, and without the necessary products to lure buyers away from established bodies like Buick and Cadillac, Lincoln may be doomed to repeat its fate here in the US.
