1979 Lincoln Continental Base Hardtop 4-door 6.6l No Reserve on 2040-cars
Fargo, North Dakota, United States
I have owned this Lincoln for about 17 years and bought it from the second owner who had owned it since 1980. He was VERY old, but claimed that the 48,000 miles at the time were original (I have no way to know if this is true or if it is 550,000, but the car is pretty nice and has not been repainted) The odometer now shows 51,071. It has been stored amongst my collection in dry heated storage since I bought the car. This is an all original car inside and out. As seen in the pictures it does have some rust, but is not a rust bucket. I photographed the worst sections of rust, (one rear door jamb and one rear fender) none of the other door jambs have considerable rust as one does. Otherwise the paint still retains a great gloss and looks spectacular going down the road. The original painted pinstripes are still intact in in good shape overall. Bumpers and bright work are shiny and nice. Glass is all good. The interior is virtually flawless with light blue velour seats, an uncracked dash, good wood grain trim, clean door panels with no cracks or tears in armrests or pulls. Original floor mats and carpets are both in great shape. I installed an am/fm/cd player with remote under the dash without any cutting or drilling whatsoever. All power windows work (including power vents), power locks work except the driver door which needs an actuator, power seats work, air conditioning blows cold, cruise control works, brakes are great, all gauges work, power trunk release works, illuminated entry works, wipers work. This is an outstanding driver-quality car which is always a kick at cruise-in car shows. Car starts and runs great and drives quiet and straight like a Lincoln should! I would drive the car anywhere and am selling because it gets driven so seldom. It has, however, been started and driven sparingly on a regular basis to prevent the seals from shrinking and leaking. Please feel free to message with any questions, or call John at 701-729-6839. NO RESERVE

Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags
Wed, Jun 1 2016The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags. This includes the 2007-2010 Ford Edge, 2006-2011 Ford Fusion, 2005-2011 Ford Mustang, 2007-2011 Ford Ranger, 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX and 2006-2011 Lincoln MKZ, Zephyr and Mercury Milan vehicles built in North America. The Problem: The defective airbags have been linked to ruptures that can send metal fragments at the passenger, due to deteriorating propellant. Injuries/Deaths: Ford claims it's not aware of any injuries due to the problem, but rupturing Takata airbags have been linked to a series of serious injuries and deaths. The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side frontal airbag at no charge to the customer. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer. If you'd like to check if your vehicle is affected, click on the safety recalls link on Ford.com and enter your VIN. Related Video:
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.
Lincoln MKX Concept announces impending launch in China
Sun, 20 Apr 2014Lincoln has finally dropped the details on the MKX Concept after a few days of teasing. Set for a very important global debut at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show, we're going to have to see this conceptualized version of the third-generation MKX in person before we can draw any real conclusions on the effectiveness of its design.
One of the things Lincoln will need to do to succeed is deliver something to customers that's unique to the brand's vehicles, which are exclusively rebadged models from parent company Ford. We're not sure this is going to be distinctive enough.
Unlike its last new vehicle, the Navigator, the work done on the MKX is smooth and refined. The stance of the vehicle, with its 21-inch wheels, is aggressive enough. Viewed from the profile, the overhangs appear rather short, while character lines keep it from looking slabsided. In front, we might be witnessing the cleanest interpretation yet of Lincoln's twin grilles. The headlights are slim and stylish, and we're digging the shape and style of the mirrors, which feature integrated turn signals that outline the mirror cap.
