Here are the basic details: 1967 Lincoln Continental 2 door coupe...cranberry metallic red with a white vinyl top the color was changed (originally white) by the original owner but they did a good job as the paint is fully cut in (see pics)......111,000 original miles.....i have owned this for 4 years and love it but want a wagon as I have a baby on the way and so the the toys need to be practical...
solid as hell, great runner, pretty pimp ride to be honest...black leather interior which is in awesome shape with the exclusion of one split (see pics)...body is clean with no filler whatsoever and only has the standard dings expected for its age...the car has always been garaged...radio is craptastic so it is ripe for a boomin' system
this car is actually pretty rare as most folks just scrapped the coupes when they got old...the body size is the same as the 4-door (with the suicide doors), so you can imagine the grand style of a massive coupe...it literally drives like you are commanding a ship that you can steer with one finger while sitting on a leather couch...
only issues are the dent at the right front as shown in the photos...there is a 5" crack in the windshield at the lower right corner but it still passes inspection...there is some surface bubbling near the trim of the vinyl top...at the end of last summer the right front window stopped going in one direction for some reason (although the motor is new), rather than screw with it i just yanked the motor and raise and lower the window by hand as it stays up in any position...a split on the dash pad...and finally I just made (doh!) a small hole in the drivers floorboard which i also took some photos of from both inside and under the car, it can easily be fixed with a 4"x6" plate if you feel so inclined....
it is a great runner and i am driving it right now..
---> i am interested in trades if you are near the NYC area...for vintage station wagons only...must be fully running, driving and on the road at the moment...if you have something awesome send me a message <----
it has a 462" with a C6 trans and has had over $8,000 worth of work last summer alone (have receipts)..but the reserve is FAR LESS than that!!!
here is the short list of all that was recently done:
- engine was taken out and cleaned
- new timing chain set & gaskets
- new front/rear main seals & oil pan gasket
- new intake and exhaust manifold gaskets
- new RH exhaust manifold
- full new welded exhaust from front to back
- rebuilt carb
- rebuilt p/s pump...if you know lincolns this is mounted on the crank and is a total pain in the ass...
- rebuilt fuel pump
- rebuilt transmission with new torque converter
- radiator removed, flushed, sealed, repainted
- new rear axle bearings and seals
- new steel and rubber brake lines
- new steel fuel lines
- new window motors
- new shocks
- new rear brake cyls and shoes
- new steel and rubber fuel lines
- all new belts, hoses, fan clutch
- tires have about 1000 miles on them..
if you have any questions please ask before you bid...if you bid and win you will be required to drop me a $125 deposit (to cover listing fees)within 48 hours as far too many people flake out on purchases...however the remainder you can pay in cash at the time of pick up...shipping is not something that i want to set up so please sort that out a head of time as this is a big car so make sure your carrier knows...

2002 Lincoln Continental concept should've made production, headed for auction instead
Fri, 26 Sep 2014It seems like the retro design aesthetic in autos might be petering out, with even a former poster child like the Ford Mustang taking a step in a more modern direction. Sometimes those updates of old-school models really worked well, though. Just take a look above at the Lincoln Continental concept from 2002 that took the extruded shape of the 1960s version and updated it for the new millennium.
Now there's a chance for this gorgeous concept to take a spot in your garage, as RM Auctions is selling it as part of a 130-plus-car, no-reserve auction of the Sam Pack Collection on November 14 and 15, in Dallas, TX. Among the lots for sale are a number of Fords, including several recent concepts from the brand. "My collecting philosophy is simple: buy what I like, but always with an emphasis on quality," Pack said in the auction announcement.
The Continental concept absolutely nails the mix of modern and retro. Its perfectly crisp lines make the shape appear hewn from a single piece of metal, and there's just the slightest ornamentation with the angled, chrome slats in the grille and chrome strips over the wheel arches. It even retains the suicide doors from its inspiration.
Lincoln MKX Concept goes for the gold in Beijing
Sun, 20 Apr 2014We've now seen the Lincoln MKX Concept in the metal, and we've shot it with the lenses of our own DSLR cameras. And we have to say, our opinion of the concept's design language has improved over our initial reaction. Yes, it's clear that this MKX shares its underpinnings with those of the Ford Edge Concept that we saw in LA, but the changes made by Lincoln stylists are a welcome departure from the angular lines of its corporate cousin from The Blue Oval.
We like the subtlety of the MKX Concept's front fascia, and the lighting elements both front and rear lend a luxurious quality to the crossover's typical two-box proportions. When combined with the smaller MKC that was shown in production form late last year, it's clear to see that Lincoln has a specific design direction that at least seems visually capable of setting it apart from the Ford models with which the brand shares its platforms. Here's hoping there are some Lincoln-specific upgrades underhood...
Have a look at our image gallery of live photos from Beijing above, reread the press release below, and feel free to let us know what you think.
