1969 Lincoln Continental You are looking at a piece of history; a 1969 Lincoln Continental. It is very hard to even find pieces to these cars, let alone find a whole car, and one that could run and drive with very minor repairs. This car is currently in “project” form. This is NOT a show car by any means and has not been restored. It has been left in its “original” condition and will make for an absolutely great restoration project. Once this car is in running condition, you will not be able to pull it out of the driveway without someone asking you questions about it or people taking pictures of it. It will be an absolute blast to own and drive. After a complete restoration, you would have one very rare and hard to find car.
This is a true “barn find.” It was bought after sitting in a barn for a very long time. It was parked there untouched for years, making this an even rarer find. You find Lincoln’s all over the place that have been highly modified, but not this one. You are being given the chance to own a car that will make for a great project. It would be very hard to even put a price on this car after a complete restoration was completed.
The following is what makes this car such a great vehicle:
THE GOOD: - CLEAN AND CLEAR TITLE IN HAND - VIN: 9Y82A885400 - 49,750 miles - 460 V8 Engine - All original car - Very solid inside and out - Will fire and run (idle) - True barn find - All trim pieces are present - All glass is present - All chrome is present - A complete interior is present - All lights are present - Power everything - New battery - New tires - Suicide rear doors - Minor rust - Badges are present - Great looking under body - Top is in fair shape - Mirrors are present - Body is very solid - Original steering wheel and dash - Clock in passenger dash - Seats are in great shape - A luxury vehicle in its day - Comfortable and spacious - Motor is complete - MUST SEE IN PERSON THE BAD: - Has been sitting for over five years. - It will start and run, but certainly needs a good tune up. - The brakes feel soft, therefore it is NOT listing as a RUNNING and DRIVING car. - Power window switch has a short in it. They do work sometimes. - Looks to have been repainted at one time, but it is hard to tell. - Some interior pieces of the drive door panel are loose. - The headliner on the drive side has a hole in it. - The car will have to be towed/hauled to its destination. - The exact mileage is unknown. The dash reads 49,750.
I know I am forgetting a few things, but I have done my best to list everything that this car has or includes. You will be very pleased with the attention it gets after it has been restored, or even in the condition is currently sits. There are endless possibilities with this car. You could literally leave it exactly as it sits, tune it up, and drive it for years. You could invest thousands in order to make it the fully restored piece of history. You could install your choice of replacement parts to have the car meet your preferences. The list goes on and on forever. This is a 1969 Lincoln Continental! There is no other car like it, and it is by far the coolest vehicle I have ever seen.
Please, keep in mind this vehicle is considered an antique. It is by no means a show car or a “perfect” condition car. You absolutely must see it in person to appreciate it! I will not haul the car for you to decide if you like it or not. You are the buyer; therefore, you are responsible for all parts on your end of the sale (i.e. shipping, title transfer, registration, insurance, inspection, and so on).

Lincoln putting perfume on its sales
Mon, 18 Aug 2014Lincoln has a scent. But unlike those from Mustang, Lamborghini or even Shark by Tara, you can't buy it and you have to visit a Lincoln dealership to inhale its notes of jasmine hedione, mate tea leaves and tonka beans. Essence of Lincoln - that's what it's called - is being piped through the ventilation systems at some showrooms to help "create an emotional connection between the luxury brand and its customers," and olfactorily promote the idea of "luxury and warmth." Where it's not run through the ducts, visitors can sample it on scent cards.
Master perfumer Rene Morgenthaler worked with aroma house SensoryMax to design Essence of Lincoln. Also including traces of Earl Grey bergamot and green tea, whenever you encounter it you're meant to enjoy "a feeling of belonging to an exclusive, forward-thinking group that values style and success." And then buy an MKC. There's a press release below with details and an image to explain more, if you're still having a little trouble smelling the orange blossoms.
2015 Lincoln Navigator gets lots of updates, still not all-new [w/video]
Thu, 06 Feb 2014If there's one brand that could really use some fresh, all-new product, it's Lincoln. The MKC crossover is on the way and looks promising, but the just-revealed 2015 model year update of its fullsize Navigator would appear to stop somewhere short of being "all-new." This, despite replacing a product that's been on the market since 2007. Oh sure, there's a brash new face, complete with the company's love or hate split-wing grille, and the revised rear-end treatment does look better to our eyes (if overly familiar). But in the era of the bold new all-aluminum Ford F-150, the Navigator is still based on the outgoing model's all-steel bones, so it's more of an extensive mid-cycle refresh than a completely new piece.
Unlike the F-150, there's no aluminum suit on this black-tie bruiser
That's a shame, really, because the class the Navigator is playing in features a host of really modern, stylish, luxurious crossovers and sport utilities like the Cadillac Escalade, Land Rover Range Rover, Mercedes-Benz GL-Class and more. Unlike the F-150, there's no aluminum suit on this black-tie bruiser, but that's not to say it isn't bringing some new tech to the table in 2015. Under the hood, for example, is Ford's well-received 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6, putting out "at least" 370 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque. That's a solid engine, and should be a whole lot more spunky and efficient than the archaic 5.4-liter Triton V8 currently being employed in the outgoing model.
2016 Lincoln MKX packs plenty of power, MKC-inspired looks
Tue, Jan 13 2015Following on the heels of Ford's unveiling of its new Edge a few months back, Lincoln officially introduced the new MKX counterpart on Tuesday at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Unlike its Ford counterpart, the MKX does away with any notion of a four-cylinder, opting for the buyer's choice of a pair of V6 engines. At its base is FoMoCo's familiar 3.7-liter V6, generating a projected 300 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, although the real exciting powertrain news focuses on Lincoln's optional engine. Like the Edge, the top-end engine is a 2.7-liter, EcoBoost V6 that promises "more than" 330 hp and 370 lb-ft of torque. We'd love to tell you about the performance impact this new engine has on the MKX, but as Lincoln probably hasn't published a 0-60 time since 1967, that simply isn't possible. Suffice it to say, we expect the most potent engine should offer pretty brisk acceleration. Aside from the power increase provided by the MKX's new engine lineup, Lincoln has thoroughly refitted the crossover's exterior, using its handsome MKC kid brother as its inspiration. It's a good look, to be honest, allowing the new CUV to maintain its styling edge over its Blue Ovaled platform mate. See what we mean in our gallery of live images, right from the Lincoln stage at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show.
