Up for sale is my personal 1979 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL 4 DOOR COLLECTOR SERIES. The exterior is dark blue and the interior is dark blue leather. Drivetrain is a 6.6 400ci V8 with a C6 transmission. Luxuries include, power steering, power brakes, tilt wheel, air conditioning, power windows, power locks, dual power seats, cruise control, AM/FM 8 track, Cartier clock, Collector Series equipment which includes, color coded turbine wheels, gold emblems, grill,and stripes, port hole delete in the top, matching trunk carpet and complete tool kit.
I have recently gone through this whole car mechanically and have done, air filter and breather, oil and filter change, sparkplugs, cap, rotor, pcv, front and rear brakes, new headlight switch and headlight door actuator, brand new power antenna assembly. Inside I replaced and repaired the door lock actuators, left rear power window motor and track, replaced the fuel guage. I have installed a new Interstate battery last year with a battery store cutoff. I have just installed a new correct radiator. I have installed a new vinyl top and have detalied the car from top to bottom. It runs and drives like when it was brand new. I have the original owners manual and build sheet as I purchased it from the original owner. My best friend was the original owners aunt, I know this car since new. The body is really nice but does have a few rust bubbles mostly above the tail lights. It has a rust hole in the right rear lower quarter panel, and a few in the door jambs. The body was painted in the early 90s. The paint is really nice and shines beautifully but it is not show quality and has a few blemishes. The hood has acid rain stains but is really only noticeable in the garage under the flourescent lamps. All the trim is really nice. The interior is like new and I have purchased and installed the original floor mats since the picture was taken. The woodgrain on the steering wheel is a little faded. I replaced the rear package tray with new correct fabric. Underneath is all original and soild, normal surface rust but no holes anywhere. Has the normal oil sweating from sitting around, but nothing major. Also the muffler was just replaced. The air conditioning compressor needs a front seal as it leaks freon, it has been converted to 194A, it blows ICE COLD for the season but needs to be charged every year. Overall this is a beautiful driver quality car that gets lots of looks at the car shows and cruise nights. This car is nice enough to take anywhere, but not have to worry about enjoying it. I drive this car often when the weather allows, and is always garage kept. I purchased a car cover to keep the dust off while in the garage, it has a few tears from the car being so big, but will include it in the sale, along with a few 8 track tapes I have for it. I change the oil once a year, and have a bunch of extra filters I will include also. I have tried to describe this car the best as I remember sitting here typing this. Car is able to be viewed and driven if desired. I am selling it because i just purchased a new GMC truck, and would like to keep it in the garage. Please dont waste my time, I wont waste yours. Please ask all questions before bidding. Check my feedbacks and bid with confidence. Buyer is responsible for shipping charges, but will help anyway possible to make transaction go smoothly.. Thanks for looking and good luck. |

Do you guys like trucks?
Wed, Jan 17 2018Do you guys like trucks? If the answer is yes, boy do we have the show for you! The 2018 North American International Auto Show is lousy with 'em. Yeah, we saw the new Ram 1500, Chevy Silverado and Ford Ranger, but that's just scratching the surface. There are big trucks, little trucks, clean trucks, dirty trucks, old trucks, new trucks, red trucks, blue trucks. It's like a Dr. Seuss book. Anyway, we made a little video for you truck nuts (see what I did there?). Check it out above, and if you're looking for more serious coverage of the Detroit Auto Show, we've got it, along with a ton of images and other videos from the show floor. Enjoy!

Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion
Thu, 11 Sep 2014We all had to see this coming. Conan O'Brien has released a parody of Matthew McConaughey's new ads for the 2015 Lincoln MKC and remixed them with lines from one of his most critically acclaimed recent roles.
The now much darker commercial probably isn't how Lincoln would prefer the MKC to be marketed, but really in a few of the actual ads, McConaughey already seems moments away from breaking into a full Rustin Cohle from True Detective impression. The cadence and tone of his voice are just so close to that character, especially in the one where he's talking to the bull standing in the middle of the road. It very nearly verges on parody anyway; Conan is just turning all of this up to 11.
It's a little surprising that the writers didn't dig a little deeper into the McConaughey oeuvre for the parody. Maybe McConaughey could have taken the MKC for a party at the Moon Tower from Dazed and Confused. In any case, it's worth a quick watch, so check it out.
How the demise of Lincoln's Town Car has kick-started a limo revolution
Sun, 30 Dec 2012The deaths of the Ford Crown Victoria and the Lincoln Town Car have meant overhauls of three high-profile American fleets: police, taxi and livery car. Just as police fleets are more open to considering other options and a Nissan van is the new face of the NYC taxi, livery car companies are looking at replacements for the Town Car beyond The Blue Oval. Ford, via Lincoln, has made an MKT Town Car (pictured), but an article in the Detroit News claims "it has failed to win over most of the big limousine companies." The upstarts trying to move in include livery and limo editions of the Cadillac XTS, and livery specifications of the Toyota Avalon and Chrysler 300.
Each of those challengers, however, faces challenges. The Town Car was a workhorse, American, rear-wheel-drive sedan with plenty of rear legroom. Cadillac has been in the livery space before but with decontented models that were about selling the brand, not its luxury. It is taking the opposite approach with the XTS, pointing out that its livery edition is "contented in the upper half of the XTS range." Still, the CEO of Michigan's largest livery company says "it's quite a bit smaller than what we're used to," and he also prefers rear-wheel drive.
The Chrysler 300 is rear-wheel drive, and American, which matters to some companies, but Chrysler hasn't yet revealed the livery package for it. The livery Avalon marks Toyota's first time getting into that business in the US, a natural step after having done so well with taxi clients and with the Town Car out of the way. Still, the livery client is a different to taxi buyers, so the Avalon could face other soft-touch hurdles.
