1942 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL COUPE SERIES 26H
****** ONLY 200 PRODUCED ***** I hate to let this vehicle go, odds of finding another in this condition at a reasonable price is pretty slim. Must move her on to someone who has the time to give this rare full classic the chance to see daylight again. The restoration was started long ago (late 70's) and the interior and undercarriage (gas tank, frame, rear end, etc.) are all in like new condition. The exterior paint may be original as it is cracking and peeling in spots and will need a repaint to bring it back to its full glory or leave it original. The V12 is installed, but it is locked-up from sitting since I was told the late 70's. A few engine bay wires have not been hooked up (lights) but are all labeled. I've tried to take pictures of everything to tell the complete story, but if you need more info please email or call. The interior is all re-done n red leather, but the inner door cranks, handles & ashtrays are gone. I was told that they were sent out to be rechromed and have been lost. There are also some wires under the dash no hooked up, but they are also labeled. Also included are a few boxes with some handles and wiper arms for car and other misc. nuts n bolts. There are no rust holes anywhere on car , as it has been continuously in dry storage. Hopefully I have taken enough pictures, if not please feel free to contact me at 1-603-765-3663 or 1-603-332-4937 (9-5pm work), if I don't answer I will get back to you ASAP. There is no warranty or title(bill of sale only) with the car. You buy it, you own it...I doubt anyone will be dissapointed with the vehicle. I do require a $500 deposit via paypal within 48hrs and the complete payment before the vehicle is released. You can pay either cash or a bank transfer (no other options). I may consider trades, but no projects. If your trade is worth more, I may consider paying on an agreed difference in price. Good Luck and I have set the reserve at a very reasonable low number, I know I will lose on the deal, but just want someone to finish this project as I do not have the time or health to make it happen. Thanks & Good Luck. Sorry forgot, I also can store for alittle while and definatley have the capacity to help load the vehicle |

Lincoln reveals MKC compact crossover ahead of LA debut [w/video]
Wed, 13 Nov 2013It used to be that if you wanted a luxury SUV, you had to go big. Just look at the first high-riders released by some of the major luxury automakers - Audi Q7, Cadillac Escalade, Lexus LX - and you'll see what we mean. But since 2009 the small premium crossover segment has grown a whopping 200 percent, so it's no surprise that each has followed up with smaller luxury crossovers. And this is the latest.
At the other end of the utility spectrum from the Navigator, the new Lincoln MKC is based on the Ford Escape (much as the old pseudo-premium Mercury Mariner was), but completely rebodied and luxed up to put it in another league. Although we're still not sold on Lincoln's family fascia, the grille treatment on the MKC is certainly one of the better variations on the theme to date. The Dart-like rear lights dominate the wrap-around tailgate, and the overall shape looks taut and upscale. The same can be said of the dynamically-designed interior, taking the concept revealed in Detroit earlier this year to production fairly seamlessly.
Power will come from a choice of EcoBoost four-cylinder engines with turbocharging and direct injection: a 2.0-liter with 240 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque, or a slightly punchier new 2.3-liter with 275 hp and 300 lb-ft. Lincoln didn't disclose what transmission they'll be mated to, but did note that the MKC carries the brand's "signature" push-button gear shifter. It comes standard in front drive, but buyers who upgrade to all-wheel drive (or tick the right box) will also benefit from a new adaptive suspension Lincoln calls Continuously Controlled Damping. Other features include an approach-detection system that lights the car up and projects a Lincoln "welcome mat" on the pavement when you get close to the car, and a "bread-crumbing" feature that lets you track where your vehicle has been.
Ford recalling 850,000 cars and SUVs for airbag issues
Fri, 26 Sep 2014Ford has announced a major recall of 850,000 vehicles from model years 2013 and 2014 due to a problem with the "restraints control module."
According to Ford, a short circuit could develop in the module, causing the airbag warning light to illuminate. In more severe cases, dependent on where the short develops, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners may not work in the event of an accident. The problems can be more wide-ranging than that, too, as systems that rely on information from the control module, such as the stability control can be affected.
With 850,000 vehicles affected, it's no surprise that some of Ford's volume leaders are covered. That includes the Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans, as well as the incredibly recall-prone Escape and the C-Max MPV.
Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.
