Fort Mitchell, Kentucky, United States
|
1967 Lincoln Continental 4 Door Sedan with "Suicide" Doors - Only 42,000 MIles! This is a 100 percent stock and complete, unmolested rare find. MECHANICAL: - Runs/drives/shifts/stops/starts fine - Recent complete tune-up (plugs/points/wires etc) and fluid change - Recent new brake parts/repairs (brake pedal return might need more lubrication as car was in storage for many years) - Newly-rebuilt original carb - New electric fuel pump/fuel lines/gas tank clean out - Several new front-end parts - Does have exhaust noise at manifold (typical on these cars) BODY: - SUPER STRAIGHT sheet metal!- no dents or noticeable dings - Finished in original "champaign metallic" color (repainted once with fading on top surfaces and scratches/chips here and there) - Black "embassy" roof (replaced in past and fading/some minor cracking on top/minor pulling away from one side of windshield pillar) - Some minor rust along trunk lip, on lower bottom of passenger rear door, under vinyl top, and along both rear lower quarters (see pics for close-ups) - floors/frame etc all fine - Driver quality chrome/brightwork (some fading on bumpers). - Needs trunk lock re-installed (have it in a box) INTERIOR: - All original black cloth interior with no rips/tears in seats or door panels (except minor cracks on driver door panel arm pad) - fabric has some sun fading on corners (see pics) - Dash has crack along speaker edge (as almost all 67 Lincolns have) and fading - Original carpet is in good shape - couple of worn spots here and there - Headliner has a couple small holes (where it looks like something poked it) ELECTRICAL: - Radio (factory AM) and power ant. working great - Lights (headlights, parking lights, taillights, brake lights, dash lights) all working great - Windows are not working (switches may need cleaning as car was in storage many years) - Wipers work sometimes but seem to have faulty/sticking switch - Power seat working fine Overall, this is a terrific, all stock, super straight, LOW mileage, highly-collectible "suicide door" Lincoln that just needs some window/exhaust repairs and cosmetic refreshing/restoration to be either a nice driver or great restoration piece (with more work). I just do not have the time to work on this one at this point. Please ask ALL questions BEFORE bidding as the car is NOT 100 percent perfect show piece and is not being held out as such - please feel free to come inspect the car before bidding as the car is sold AS IS with no warranties, express or implied. Given the brake light issue, the car should likely be transported. I am not interested in any trades. Thanks! |

Is Lincoln working on a Continental concept?
Wed, Mar 25 2015The Lincoln Continental wasn't included in our post on the list of trademarks we'd like to see turned into production vehicles – the only Lincoln mention was our idea of transferring its Aviator name to a special edition Ford Mustang. But, like you, the idea of a resurrected Continental is always with us, especially when we read articles about the brand's efforts to redefine American luxury. Ford applied for the Continental trademark in 1953 and renewed in 2005, and it appears they might have something to show for it soon. A web snooper found a development site at the Lincoln domain that introduces us to the "elegantly styled and boldly distinctive Lincoln Continental Concept." There are no images, but we've combined all the text into a single image, above, and the hints we get in three blurb texts inform us that "It represents who we are as a carmaker," that it's an "envisioning of what's to come," that "No question went unanswered" and "No answer went unchallenged," and that it "is everything we know about cars, and everything we understand about people." We also found the tagline "Follow us forward," which doesn't appear on any published Lincoln site page at the moment, and the public is invited to get involved (eventually) by tweeting Continental stories and photos. Could this be the next step in the turgid drama Lincoln Rising? We look forward to finding out. Related Video:
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
2017 Lincoln Model Year Preview and Updates
Wed, Mar 1 2017For those wondering if there's more to Lincoln than a reflective Matthew McConaughey, the debut of Lincoln's all-new Continental - pictured above - should emphatically answer the question. But aside from a refresh here and there, the Continental is effectively 'it' for the 2017 model year. LINCOLN CONTINENTAL: Although the new Continental may not represent the design stretch Lincoln enthusiasts might have hoped, it's a significant step when compared to the Fusion-based MKZ or displaced MKS. With available all-wheel drive and up to 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, the Continental is described by Lincoln as targeting 'culturally progressive clients who define luxury on their own terms.' In short, this isn't a me-too interpretation of German or Asian luxury; it's the Lincoln Motor Company's interpretation of American luxury, on sale in the spring of '17. MKZ: A freshened design with all-new, Continental-esque front fascia offers an upgraded interior, new technology and available Revel Audio. MKC: It is a year of minor tweaks for Lincoln's compact crossover. A power liftgate is now standard, while Auto Start-Stop is available on MKCs equipped with the 2.0-liter and all-wheel drive, standard on 2.0-liter front-wheel drive. And the MKC receives Sync 3 plus Apple CarPlay and Android Audio. MKT: Aside from color revisions, Lincoln's livery car/crossover is unchanged. MKX: Lincoln's midsize, Edge-based crossover receives little more than color changes for 2017. NAVIGATOR: Lincoln's biggest SUV navigates the model year with few changes except for color. However, with the announcement of an all-new Ford Expedition – on which the Navigator is based – in showrooms this fall, an all-new Navigator can't be far behind it. Lincoln Car Buying whats new 2017
