1962 Lincoln Continental Base 7.0l on 2040-cars
West Springfield, Massachusetts, United States
|
The lincoln is in exceptional condition. The body is a straight as the day it left the factory and there is virtually no rust on the car anywhere. The car was primed in epoxy primer and painted in hot rod black. If you want to change the color, it is very easy because there is no clear coat on the car. The drive train consists of a 430 CI motor and a C-6 transmission. It runs and drives great, very quiet and very smooth. It has a new aluminized original style exhaust, rebuilt carburator, new battery and has been tuned up. You could register the car now and it would pass inspection. The interior is unbelievable, the seats and door panels have been reupholstered in a beautiful black leather that is over $6,000 of work on this alone. The carpet is new as well. The rest of the interior is in really good condition, the headliner which is also original is perfect. one sun visor needs to be stitched at one edge and it needs new dash pads which are readily available for about $70. All the power windows work, but the electric door locks do not, but all the doors can lock manually. The power seats work but one of the control toggles need replacing. The bag for the windshield washing fluid also needs replacement, and a new radio antenna is needed. This is a great looking stylish car and very hard to find in this condition. This car does not have a title.

Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment
Thu, 20 Mar 2014One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.
Lincoln's second, more traditional, Super Bowl commercial
Sat, 02 Feb 2013For its second Super Bowl commercial, Lincoln Motor Company has stepped away from the Max Ernst-ian surrealism of the "Steer the Script" spot. No Germans, no turtles, no aliens nor alpacas this time, just a 30-second run through the ways in which Lincoln sees the 2013 MKZ as a rebirth of the brand and everything a luxury consumer would want.
The kind of traditional spot that could run any time of year, the only question we had after watching it was: "Wait - was that... Abraham Lincoln?" Along with the press release from Lincoln, you can view the spot below.
If you want a deeper look and criticism into Lincoln's "Steer The Script," ad, have a read of AOL Autos' column: Lincoln's Super Bowl Ad is a Flop, written by Pete Bigelow.
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
