1974 Lincoln Continental Mark Iv on 2040-cars
Raleigh, North Carolina, United States
|
I am selling a big beautiful 1974 Lincoln Continental Mark IV. The car is white, with the brown vinyl top. The car is a coupe, has a automatic transmission and the big 460 cubic inch (7.5 L) Ford Big Block engine. The engine runs very strong and sounds great. All four tires are brand new Hankook white walls which look great on the car. The front shocks are brand new as well, giving this big car a super smooth ride.
The U-Joint connection between the drive-shaft and the transmission recently broke, and will need to be repaired before the car can be driven anywhere. The interior has been recently restored and has big beautiful new leather seats, a new carpet, and a new headliner. The top of the dash has also been restored. These interior components are in what is basically brand new condition, and like any Lincoln, they are big and extremely comfortable. The steering wheel still needs to be restored, but the horn does work. So no safety concerns with this big girl. The vehicle electronics work very well, especially considering the age of this car. The headlights, tail lights, and turn signals work all the way around. The high beams work, and the "Auto-Dimming" feature that originally came with this car (automatically dims headlights when opposing traffic comes towards you) still works! The controls for the cruise control are missing from the steering wheel, so I'm not sure if the cruise would function or not. The two front huge power windows still go up and down with no problem. The tiny rear windows do not go down. The big power seats still work, as does the power antenna. The stereo looks like it was replaced sometime in the 1990's... as there is a tape deck present. The stereo does not work, so its ready for you to install your own replacement stereo. The body is in very good shape. I'm assuming the car was repainted sometime in the last 10 years or so. It does have some tiny scratches here and there, but no dents or obvious damage. There is a small quarter sized section of damaged paint in the middle of the hood that is starting to rust. The frame is very solid. The trunk is HUGE, and comes with a full size spare tire. Please check out the pictures and let me know if you have any questions. I have a clear title for the car. Accepting CASH ONLY, no checks, no financing, no trades. |

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.

Ford investing $5B in Lincoln
Lincoln to resurrect old nameplates for China?
Wed, 04 Dec 2013Judging by the success that many luxury automakers are currently experiencing in China, it's no surprise that Lincoln plans to take advantage of the situation by peddling its wares across the Pacific. Lincoln will open its first Chinese dealership next year, but potential buyers there won't be mucking through the same alphabet soup of car names found in American showrooms. USA Today reports that Ford's luxury car division could revert back to legacy names (like Continental and Zephyr) in China while keeping the MK_ names here in North America.
In speaking to Ford exec Jim Farley during the LA Auto Show, USA Today says that Lincoln could switch its naming structure as models are refreshed. Farley didn't confirm that the naming revamp would be a China-only decision, but article leaves little hope that American buyers will get to see the return of classic names anytime soon.
Why would Ford rehash old Lincoln names for China only? Buyers there seem to have a better historical associations with the nameplates than in the US. Chinese also still hold Lincoln in high regard, associating the marque with use by prominent government officials.
