this beauty is in very good condition for her age the body is straight, the floors and trunk are solid i would consider her in "daily driver" condition has been lowered 3" front and back, interior needs complete restoration. all the parts are there but she came from the sacramento valley so its just sun baked i drive it around as is but to do her justice the interior should be redone headliner is beautiful though. all interior trim is there. carpet has been pulled up, the power windows work but if the car sits for longer than a month it takes awhile for them to work again, this is because the motors need rebuilt but once they get working they keep working.
she has been repainted at some point and the valley sun took its toll on that also, one small rust pin hole in the drivers door you really have to look hard to find it, chrome is in pretty decent shape all the lights including interior lights work, carburator functions as it should though it seems a little rich at idle, had electric fuel pump installed, guages work, all in all this is your chance on a rare lincoln 2 door top of the line continental that you can drive while you restore her.
ALSO THE CAR IS JUST WET IN THE PICTURES
make no mistake, she does need work but is a good solid foundation for a custom car or perfect resto. IF YOU HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CAR PLEASE ASK THEM I HAVE DESCRIBED HER TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY SHE IS DRIVABLE AS IS, AND I DO HAVE A VIDEO OF THE ENGINE STARTING AND RUNNING IF YOUD LIKE TO SEE IT.
VERY VERY REASONABLE RESERVE SO BID TO WIN
GOOD LUCK!

Is Lincoln MKC cutting into Cadillac SRX sales?
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The two big American luxury brands of Cadillac and Lincoln are on surprisingly similar paths at the moment with both divisions hoping to redefine themselves and grow popularity. They're still early in the process with no clear winner yet, but things might actually be looking up for Lincoln's latest model, according to a monthly sales analysis from The Motley Fool. It seems, at least early on, that the new MKC crossover might be taking a bite out of the Cadillac SRX's growth.
The MKC launched just a few months ago and has been getting a big marketing push from a series of oft-mocked ads starring the smooth-talking Matthew McConaughey. The luxury CUV has been the popular, new kid on the block with growing sales since its introduction. While smaller than the SRX, the Lincoln starts at a lower price and offers better fuel economy.
Through June, the SRX performed well with sales up over 20 percent on average through June, according to The Motley Fool. However, July and August saw things plummet with year-over-year drops of 7 percent and 37 percent, respectively. It still far outsold the MKC in terms of actual units in a given month, but the Caddy's continued growth has appeared to stagnate.
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
Report: Lincoln getting all of Mercury's ad dollars
Mon, 03 Jan 2011Now that the curtain has closed on Mercury, Ford Motor Company will redirect all of its marketing dollars for the oft-overlooked brand to the Blue Oval's luxury outpost, Lincoln. In speaking to Automotive News, the chairman of the Lincoln National Dealer Council, Bob Tasca, Jr., said, "You'll see a lot stronger presence in the advertising of Lincoln in 2011."
Lincoln spokesperson Christian Bokich reminded AN that the automaker is "preparing the way for seven new or significantly refreshed vehicles" that will be launched over the next four years, and the largest ad blitz in 2011 will focus on the refreshed MKX crossover, as well as the MKZ sedan and its hybrid counterpart. Following that, Lincoln has plans to launch a completely overhauled version of its Navigator SUV, an all-new C-segment vehicle and the overhauled 2013 MKZ, which Tasca says will be "strikingly different from its Ford Fusion sibling."
