Here is something you
do not see every day, a gorgeous original 1982 Lincoln Continental in
exceptional condition. This car has been
pampered, garaged, and treasured all of it’s life. The 1982-87 Lincoln Continentals are seldom
seen today, they are a rare body style; the ’82-83 cars are the rarest of them
all. They feature very different styling cues when compared to the later cars, particularly
in the front end treatment. Perform a Google
search for these two model years and see how many you find for sale in any
condition, let alone in remarkable original condition like this one.
This car was custom
ordered by its original owner in a very elegant color combination. The understated platinum exterior is accented
by bold burgundy/red bodyside moldings and burgundy/red dual band pin stripes. The sumptuous leather interior is a gorgeous
deep blue. Wide whitewall tires are
fitted to the original alloy wire wheels. This
Continental is STUNNING and turns heads wherever it goes. People ask about this car constantly and
often comment that they have never seen one before.
The paint is gorgeous
and holds a beautiful gloss, a testament to it’s 100% garaged pedigree. The only notable exterior flaw is one small ding
on the rear wheel well molding (see photo). The interior is immaculate and supple; it could almost pass for a car with 22,000 miles.
Please examine the perfect dash, steering wheel, and spotless trunk. The
only flaw is a small tear on the driver’s seat (see photo). The car is in better cosmetic condition than
most 4-5 year old Camrys.
The car is an
original Southern California car and remained there until I purchased it eight
years ago and moved it to the Seattle area, as a result there is absolutely no
rust anywhere (see undercarriage photos).
It has just under 122,000 honest miles on it, which translates to just 3800 miles per year; very low mileage for it’s age. One feature that makes the
82-83s more desirable is that they do not have the
problem plagued and complex front and rear air suspension that was standard on the 84-87 models, yet it rides so smooth and quiet you would think it does. It also has Ford’s reliable, durable, and
economical 5.0 (302) V8 with Ford’s fine 4-speed automatic overdrive
transmission. This drive train, coupled with the
Continentals smaller size, make this a really nice modern drivable
collectable. It starts, idles, drives and shifts
beautifully. All power accessories work, including the
trip computer. The AC blows cold.
I have owned this
Continental for eight great years and I’m really going to miss it, but I am now
downsizing my collection of cars. The
time has come to find this wonderful 1982 Lincoln Continental another fine home
and for someone else to enjoy it. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a
really nice honest and original example of these cars. You will be the only kid on the block with one of these! It is in excellent condition and can be shown with pride immediately. Included with the sale of this car are the
1982 Ford Motor Company Service Manuals that cover all Fox Body cars, including
the Lincoln Continental.
The car is 32+ years old, so obviously it is sold as
is, with no warranty expressed or implied. I have tried to describe the
car in the best detail possible, but I may have missed something important to you.
Please feel free to ask any questions you may have BEFORE bidding. In
person inspections are welcome and can be arranged.
A
$500 NON-REFUNDABLE deposit is due within 24 hours of the end of the auction.
The balance is due within 7 days of the end of the auction. Wire transfer for
the balance is preferred. Cashiers or personal check is okay, but
verification of clearance will delay the release of the car. I am happy to work
with your shipper once the car is paid for and I can provide indoor storage for
the car up to 30 days after the end of the auction. I reserve the right to
cancel all bids and end the auction early for local sale. I am happy to
work with International buyers. Please keep in mind car will need to be paid in
full and clearance of payment will need to be verified prior to the car being
released for transport.
I
have had the same eBay id for nearly 9 years; my feedback speaks for
itself. This is a 'no surprises' car.

Following 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.

Ford execs had the axe ready for Lincoln just a few years ago, but the luxury marque is on a hot streak these days. Annual sales are up 7.5 percent through October, and the recently unveiled, refreshed 2017 MKZ previews the company's improved styling. In a great piece about the brand's growth strategy, Automotive News finds the division's bosses want to focus on the core vehicles before taking a big step and building a rear-wheel drive niche model. "Luxury coupes and sports cars are not the first place we need to go," Global Lincoln Director Matt VanDyke said in the story. The division's bosses want to use the updated MKZ as an opportunity to distance Lincoln's identity from Ford, and the powertrain will carry the 3.0T badge rather than Ford's EcoBoost name as part of that approach. The model also injects excitement into the range thanks to an all-wheel drive version with a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 with 400 horsepower and an optional Driver's Package with a torque-vectoring rear differential. Lincoln will launch at least three new models by 2020, too. One of those will be the production Continental that will reportedly debut at the Detroit Auto Show. The company will also allegedly revive the Aviator to fit below the Navigator. The third vehicle remains a mystery but likely isn't a compact. Automotive News' story further examines the previously languishing brand's work to climb up the luxury ranks in the US. It's well worth a read. Related Video:

In the case of Henry Leland, naming his new car brand after the first President he cast a vote for in 1864 seemed a jolly good idea, on paper.
You should always be careful about the name you choose to give your new baby. The power of association can work in many ways, not always positive.
