1988 Lincoln Town Car Base Sedan 4-door 5.0l Limo on 2040-cars
Dexter, Michigan, United States
|
You are looking at a 1988 Lincoln Town Car Limousine. I received the car from my Grandfathers estate about a year ago. Based on the information that I found in the glove box, the vehicle was in service as a limousine on the east coast. My Grandfather purchased the vehicle and drove it back to Michigan. The car has been stored in a pole barn at his house. Since I have had it, I have had it stored in a portable garage in my driveway. My initial idea was to restore the vehicle, but I do not have the time or the place to do it. I did however, remove the vinyl top that was dry rotted and noticed that there was some rusted areas that needed some attention. I did replace the rear window and have done some fiberglass and bondo repairs around the new window. The engine runs well and all of the fluids were replaced when I got the car. The brakes work great. The transmission was not shifting into overdrive and I had it checked out at our local transmission shop. I was told that the transmission needed to be rebuilt and that the more I drove it the worse it would get. At that point I stopped driving the car. Other than the top, the body and undercarriage looks good, as do the tires and wheels. The air conditioning needs to be recharged and I do not know if there is any leaks in the system. The 5.0 V8 is the same engine used in Ford Mustangs. This vehicle is for pick up only, no delivery. I also included a picture of the vehicle before I removed the vinyl top. Thank you for checking it out.

Lincoln MKC crossover headed for Detroit
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Fresh off the launch of the stylish new MKZ sedan, the newly named Lincoln Motor Company is reportedly preparing for a lineup expansion. According to TheDetroitBureau.com, the first new product joining the Lincoln brand is a small crossover based on the Ford Escape said to be called the MKC. We saw this machine testing a few months ago, and while we were hoping the name might be reserved for a future two-door model or even the diminutive Concept C hatchback, it looks like the "C" will stand for compact crossover instead.
The report also says that this crossover will be making its debut next month at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, so we'll have to wait until then to see what the new model looks like. Unlike the MKX, which is based off the Ford Edge, we would expect there to be a lot more differentiation between the MKC and the Escape like Ford managed to do with the newest Fusion and MKZ.
In addition to the new MKC, the article states new MKS and Navigator designs are expected to debut by 2014.
Lincoln's first shipment of cars arrives in China
Mon, 15 Sep 2014It has been two years since Lincoln first announced its plans to expand into China, and the first models destined for sale in the giant automotive market just came off the boat in Shanghai on September 10. It's going to be a few weeks before Chinese buyers actually have the chance to get behind the wheel, though.
The first two models being offered to China are the MKZ and MKC, as seen arriving in these photos, and they are going to be sold at dealers that look more like hotels than traditional showrooms. The first four are opening in Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou in October, with a grand unveiling of the new brand to Chinese consumers later that month. By the end of the year, Lincoln wants to have eight dealers operating in seven cities. By 2016, the automaker wants to have a lineup of five models available in the People's Republic.
"This is the culmination of months of teamwork and collaboration both in North America and here in China," said Robert Parker, President of Lincoln China, in the company's release.
Quitting Mexico factory helps bring down Ford earnings $200 million in 2016
Thu, Jan 26 2017Ford released its 2016 earnings report this morning, and despite a fourth quarter net loss it proved to be the automaker's second most successful year ever, following record breaking numbers in 2015. Losses for the year come from a number of sources, including accounting changes and a $200 million hit for backing out of the small-car factory in San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Despite the loss, come March 9 about 56,000 UAW-represented employees will receive a $9,000 profit-sharing check. That, like most of Ford's other 2016 metrics, is slightly down from the year before, but it's still the second best profit-sharing payment ever. Total net income was $4.6 billion, down $2.8 billion from 2015. Total revenue for 2016 was $151.8 billion, up $2.2 billion. Ford's earnings report lists a global market share of 7.6 percent, down a tenth from 2015. Ford's European and Asia-Pacific markets posted their best and second best pre-tax profits respectively. The South American, Middle East, and African markets all took hits because of unstable economies and other external factors. Ford expects to have another down year in 2017 as it invests in new and emerging markets and focuses more on its mobility projects.Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
