1974 Lincoln Continental Mark Iv, 460 V8, Low Mileage on 2040-cars
Richfield, North Carolina, United States
Offered for your consideration is a 1974 Lincoln Mark IV personal luxury coupe. This is a low-mileage North Carolina car that needs very little to made into really nice ride. I am selling this car for a friend of mine who does not do the internet. THIS IS NOT MY CAR, and I can answer very few questions for you. See below for the contact information of the owner who will be glad to speak with you almost any time. Many cars on Ebay look better on the computer than they do in person. This car is just the opposite pictures do not do it justice. The original silver paint is faded. All the chrome trim has been removed and parts have been spot-primed to prevent rust. Missing chrome is in the trunk, which has no rust I am told. The body is incredibly straight with no dents or dings. The only rust is bubbling under the vinyl top (see photo). The top looks great. There are two plugged holes on top of the left rear fender where radio antennae once sat proudly (remember the 1970s? The CB craze? Apparently the first owner of this car was enamored with the fad, 10-4!). The car does run and yard drives, but I would not consider it roadworthy. As you can see by the photo of the last NC inspection, this car has not been on the road since 2002. Tires do not look very weathered. It does have a good battery. The interior is the real strong point of this car! During storage, it has had sheets and towels over the dash, real parcel shelf and seat cushions, and sun shades blocking all the windows (I had to move these to take pictures, as you can see in the photos). The result is that the interior is remarkable! There are no cracks or discoloration on the dash or rear inside panels, the headliner is unblemished, and the seat cushions red velour, no less! are not sun damaged or torn anywhere I could see. Carpet looks great and there are no signs of wear there or on the pedals. As you can see from the photos of the dash and instrumentation, this car shows 52,000 miles, and I have no doubt its probably correct miles (I have no documentation to prove this, however!). The car has the very rare (for 1974) factory AM/FM cassette player, plus all the usual bells and whistles. I have no idea if they work, but everything is present to make them work. The inside door panels are off the car and in the garage (they are perfect as well), because the previous owner was trying to get the power windows to work. (They appear to be stuck, but the motors try to work). This car needs the windows fixed, a good tune-up, and a paint job to once again be the head-turner it was 4 decades ago. The car certainly deserves the attention! Those of you in northern portions of the country who love these old land barges will never find one in your neck of the woods with this much potential. QUESTIONS? I know you have them! Call the owner, Joe Widmeyer, at 980-581-0732, and he will be glad to talk to you. This car has a clear, clean title ready to go. Local pick-up only. Will be glad to assist shippers in loading the car. Sold as-is, where is, with no warranty expressed or implied. Sold with a modest reserve, so bid to own it! |

Lincoln MKC configurator comes alive
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Lincoln has already announced most of the trim level and option pricing for its upcoming 2015 MKC due out this summer, and now it has launched a configurator allowing prospective buyers to get a better idea of how this new model will stack up against other compact luxury crossovers. We already knew that the MKC will have a starting price of $33,995, but now we know that its price includes a destination charge of $895.
Models equipped with the base 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine come standard with the Premiere package - $33,100 for front-wheel drive and $35,595 for all-wheel drive. Both models offer equipment upgrades from the Select and Reserve packages. The $3,230 Select package adds features like leather seats, power passenger seat, folding and heated door mirrors and painted 18-inch wheels, while the pricier $6,935 Reserve package adds in heated and cooled front seats, panoramic roof, hands-free liftgate, two-tone wheels and an embedded modem (providing features such as remote lock and unlock, vehicle finder and pre-conditioning).
Opting for the new 2.3-liter EcoBoost inline-four raises the base price to $39,965, and it comes standard with all-wheel drive and all of the equipment in the Select package; the Reserve package is still optional. All models can be further optioned up with the $2,235 Technology Package (adding adaptive cruise, active park assist and lane keeping system) and the $580 Climate Package (heated rear seats and steering wheel, auto high beams and rain-sensing wipers). Checking all the options, a fully loaded 2015 MKC with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost will have a total MSRP of $47,715.
Ford is recalling more Takata airbag-equipped Ford and Lincoln models
Thu, Mar 2 2017The Basics: Takata, the beleaguered airbag supplier at the root of the largest recall in automotive history, has informed Ford of a problem with the airbags in just over 30,000 Ford and Lincoln models. The problem is not related to the non-desiccated ammonium nitrate airbag inflators that plague the other airbags ( including many Fords), meaning there isn't a risk of shrapnel flying out from the units in this particular recall. The Problem: In the event of an accident, the front airbags may only partially inflate, and the airbag may become detached from the module because of misaligned parts. The problem affects 2016 and 2017 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models built at the Oakville Assembly Plant. The issue also affects 2017 Lincoln Continentals that were built at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Injuries/Deaths: In a release, Ford stated that it is not aware of any accidents, injuries, or deaths related to the airbag issue. The Fix: Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag module at no cost. If You Own One: Sit tight and wait for Ford to notify owners. When that happens, take your car to the dealer for a replacement. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
