For sale is my 1976 Lincoln Mark IV Emillo Pucci Designer Series. I bought this Lincoln from the original owner who puchased his Mark IV Lincoln in November of 1976. This Lincoln Started it's life in Norh Carolina and then the owner moved to Phoenix, Arizona where the Lincoln has been ever sense. The previous owner supplied me with all the maintenance and restoration records going back to 1994. I too was concerned about the high mileage until I went through the records and looked at the condition of the car. For a 38 year old Lincoln it is in very good condition. I have done the following repair to ensure the Lincoln was road worthy and safe.
I have four new tires installed
Changed the motor oil
Installed new rear brakes inculding one new rotor and caliper assembely.
rebuilt steering colume and installed a nice clean steering wheel
Replaced drivers door panel
This Lincoln Mark IV drives very well. Starts after two pumps of the gas pedal when cold, and auto choke works well. The engine runs smooth and cool down the Arizona road with no noise or issues. The Lincoln tracks well with no directional pulls or correction needed. The brakes stop this large vehicle well with out noise or pulling sensation. The transmission shifts through all gears smoothly with no hessitaion. The A/C is complete and converted to R134 but will require a recharge(blows Cool but not cold). All the power windows, sunroof, and seats work. Let review the condition of my Mark IV from a 1 to 10 scale 1 being the worst.
Exterior Condition (8) The Lincoln was repainted in 2007 and looks as good in person as does the photos. The car is a 5 footer and small imperfections can be found such as crack in the paint by the vinyl roof. a small bubble about the size of a pea on the left front fender. no body damage found or major rust issues. Vinyl top in excellent condition as well as the plastic bumper fillers. All trim is in place and undamaged but could use some trim clips in areas.
Engine and transmission (8) Engine and transmission operate well under idle and load. Blue smoke can be seen on initial start up wich is indicitive of valve guide seals. Have receipts showing R&R of engine and transmission in 2005. All oem equipment still in place and functional.
Suspension and Brakes(9) Rear brakes new and front brakes have 40% life. I have front end receipts showing ball joints and tie rods, alignment being done. Shocks are fair and optional to be done at this time.
Interior(7) A/C needes a recharge is the main reason I gave this Lincoln a 7. Seats are excellent, but have small tear in drivers seat about an inch long. Could be stitched up due to location of the seam. headliner is starting to sag above the passenger. As stated I replaced the drivers door panel due to sun damage and the steering wheel. The dash has cracks but is covered by a dash mat. The original stereo has been replace by an new AM/FM/Cassette and sounds good.
This brings the over all condition of this vehicle to an (8) Nada Classic Car guide gives this vehicle a low value of $5,850.00 and a high around $11,000.00 I have tried to descibe this vehicle as detailed as possible so not to give anyone a surprise. This is a beautiful Lincoln and will bring lots of attention at car shows.

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.
Lincoln says MKZ supply crisis over
Mon, 25 Mar 2013After an excessive number of recalls on the 2013 Escape and Fusion, we can't really fault Ford for being a little extra cautious with the launch of the 2013 Lincoln MKZ. Last month, we reported that dealer supply of the car was extremely limited due to more attention being paid to quality checks of cars rolling off the assembly line, which led to a 73-percent drop in MKZ sales from last year on top of a 32-year low in monthly sales for Lincoln in January.
The reason for the delay was that the sedans were being shipped from the Hermosillo, Mexico assembly plant to be inspected even closer at Ford's Flat Rock, Michigan plant before they were able to head to dealers. Things seem to be straightening out for Lincoln and the MKZ's production now, as Automotive News is reporting that supply should be up to a "normal level" by the end of this month.
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
