1957 Lincoln Mark Ii Base 6.0l on 2040-cars
Scottsdale, Arizona, United States
|
For sale is this extremely rare 1957 Lincoln Mark II. This car runs and drives like new and starts right up with no trouble! This car has the original classic two tone paint job of aqua with a white top. The interior boasts all white seats. Overall, this car in exceptional condition. Cosmetically it needs a little TLC but runs and drives like it's fresh off the factory floor. It starts right up, accelerates and breaks with ease, and has zero problems turning. The driver's door does not seem to catch correctly when closed but does stay closed; just has a little gap. There is barely any rust on the car though there are some bubbles in some areas. No bodywork has been done that is known of. The vast majority of the paint is pretty nice, but needs repainting to be show quality. Looks impressive going down the street and even up close is stunning. There are various nicks and scratches if you look close up. The chrome and stainless are in nice driver-quality shape, the exhaust still exits out the rear bumper ends and these rear bumper ends are in very solid shape. The gas filler mechanism works well. Nice grill. Hood opens and shuts easily though the trunk has some trouble opening. Nice seats and door panels. Dash is in good shape but just needs to be pulled tight at the edges. Clear gauges and the interior chrome is very good. Engine compartment is correct and looks very good. The car is 1 of 444 produced in 1957. A new '57 Mark II cost a whopping $10,000 and you could buy 2 Cadillacs and a Chevy for that amount. The car is loaded and has installed the only non-standard 'option' available at the time; the factory AC that is currently not hooked up. The car has the standard power steering, power brakes, power windows, power antenna, power seat, automatic trans, 368/300 HP V-8 Lincoln engine, real leather interior, tach, power door vent windows, courtesy lights, original and correct-rare-and very expensive turbine-type hubcaps. Clear title. Temp gauge shows as high due to heater valve being bypassed. Fuel-oil-and-amp guages, speedometer-odometer-and trip meter work. Turn signals and their corresponding dash indicators do not work. Engine runs cool and quiet. All glass is clear, dash guages are clear. Power antenna remains up. This is your opportunity to own a very rare example of American automotive history. I have priced this vehicle to provide you the best deal on a car of this caliber. Please be sure to ask any questions you may have and I can also provide you with any specific pictures or videos of the car that you'd like. Due to the extreme rarity of this car, prices will only continue to climb. Get it now before it's too late!

Ford faces class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles without brake override systems
Fri, 29 Mar 2013A total of 20 Ford customers are suing the automaker in a class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles "vulnerable to unintended acceleration." According to Reuters, the suit names 30 models built between 2002 and 2010 with electronic throttle control systems but without a brake override system. Those include the 2004-2012 F-Series pickups and the 2005-2009 Lincoln Town Car. Adam Levitt, a partner with the law firm of Grant & Eisenhofer says the plaintiffs in the case want "to be compensated for their economic losses by having overpaid for cars that contained defects." Levitt contends that the plaintiffs would not have bought their vehicles or paid less for them had they known there was no brake override system in place.
Ford began installing brake override systems in its vehicles beginning in 2010. In response to the lawsuit, Ford has pointed to research by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that indicated that unintended acceleration is mostly caused by driver error, saying in a statement that, "NHTSA's work is far more scientific and trustworthy than work done by personal injury lawyers and their paid experts."
Belville et al v. Ford Motor Co. will be heard in US District Court in the Southern District of West Virginia.

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.
