Running, driving, tagged and inspected 1968 Lincoln Continental Coupe with around 90k miles on it. This is rare in that it's a coupe with a 460 (5,131 built). The 460 wasn't introduced until mid-year and fewer coupes were sold than 4-doors. White exterior, black vinyl top. Nice black leather interior with new soft fabric inserts. Dash has cracks. Vinyl top is peeling. Body is mostly straight but there is some hail damage on trunk and front end is dented. Replacement grille is in trunk. Some surface rust and like some rust under vinyl top around back window. Engine is the 365hp 460 with C6 auto transmission. Engine fires right up. Cracked exhaust manifold but closes up when engine warms. One muffler is hanging low.
Recent new parts include rebuilt carb, plugs, wires, points, thermostat, fan clutch, timing gears and chain, power steering pump, brake lines, rebuilt brake calipers and more.
Electricals need attention - only the driver's window is currently working, power seats, etc. AC not currently working. This is not an exhaustive list of what needs to be done to the car but you get the idea.

Lincoln MKC prototype spied out testing
Wed, 20 Mar 2013As was the case with the Lincoln MKZ, it appears that Lincoln isn't wasting any time getting its newest model transformed from concept to production form. We just saw the MKC Concept earlier this year at the Detroit Auto Show, and based on these spy shots, it looks like the final touches are being put in place for the 2014 Lincoln MKC crossover.
Sharing its platform with the Ford Escape, we can definitely see some similarities between these two compact crossovers when it comes to the roofline and daylight opening, but through the heavy camouflage, Lincoln's signature split-wing grille can easily be seen and it looks like the concept's taillights will also make it to reality. On the disappointing side, it looks like the integrated exhaust outlets are being ditched for some round outlets, and we can't tell if the production version will keep the Audi-like clamshell rear liftgate.
Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
