1970 Lincoln Continental 2-door Hard Top Coupe on 2040-cars
Wapakoneta, Ohio, United States
|
Relisted do to wrong catagory!
For sale is a 1970 Lincoln hard-top 2 door coupe. From what I've been told there were less than 2500 of these ever made. I have the original dealership code list if anyone has any questions or wants to know the numbers to decode. The car runs and drives great! That however doesn't mean it doesn't need a complete ground-up rebuild. While the 1970 D0VE engine performs quite well, the outside is getting rusty. Has vacuum controlled power-locks. Vacuum controlled opening headlights and original wheel covers. It comes with all the original parts like intake manifold, carb, etc if you want it numbers matching. If you were to restore this to like-new condition I don't doubt it would bring 100k at auction as rare as it is. Please, be my guest, search all of the internets and try to find one, you likely will not find so much of a picture of this car, let alone the car itself. There is one additional one that I'm aware of and the gentleman that owns it is en Europe. Yes, it's rough I know. Yes, you can come check her out. I drive her in the summers here any there mostly to my buddies farm about 5 miles up the road from mine. She has a mild cam, new water pump, new intake manifold (Weiand hi-rise), new carb, holley vacuum secondary with a QFT kit put on her so you can change the all the jets instead of messing with fuel plates. Do some research and find out what you can about this model, if it's something you want go ahead and bid, if not, she'll go back in the barn 'til Spring. If you're someone famous like gas monkey garage or jesse james than I darn well better get on tv and want to see what she looks like when you're done. You're welcome to come look at her, hear her start, idle, run, etc. Send me an ebay message with your phone number and I'll answer any questions you have about the car or the dealer-delivery statement. I'm only the second owner of this car, the orginal one was an elderly retired dentist. This is one of the largest cars ever produced, especially for a 2--door model, with both doors open the wingspan is nearly 15 feet across.
VIN: 0Y81A843773 I have tons of paperwork for everything the first owner did to the car, including documentation that he was indeed a doctor. I have original owner's manual and dealer's window print out.
Car is in Lima, OH
I believe the mileage says 34000 but the odometer doesn't work well. Exact mileage unknown.
Feel free to msg me any questions or with your phone number so we can talk, hear it run, etc; or to request additional pictures

Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue
Fri, 15 Aug 2014Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.
Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks
Sun, 31 Mar 2013Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
