1963 Lincoln Continental Base 7.0l on 2040-cars

Year:1963 Mileage:30202

This is a newly restored (for the most part) 1963 Lincoln Continental.  This is a GREAT looking car and is perfect for showing or just crusing in!

I've had the engine overhauled and all body work and interior redone.  I bought this car 2 years ago and it's been restored over that time.  I recently got it back and simply don't have the time to finialze the restoration or give it the attention I'd like to, because I've got 5 other cars.

I've made a few modifications to this car by adding airbag suspension and 22 inch wheels.  It is a low rider and will slam right down to the ground using the air bags, or come up to a comfortable crusing height.  That said, it  can easily be coverted back to factory stock by adding wheels and suspension. 

The engine is overhauled and while it makes some squeaking sound (probably a belt), it runs well. 
Brakes are original, all drum all the way around.
Car runs and drives just fine.
There are some leaks as you'd expect from a '63 but keeping an eye on fluid levels should correct that. 

Interior and exterior, are brand new and look great!   The car definitly has appeal!

As I mentioned, its not perfect and there is some additional work that would need to put put into it:

- Drivers window is slow

-passenger vent window wont shut from driver controls (only from passenger controls)

-breaks should be done to convert to disc

-possible rear seal oil leak

-new exhaust must be added.

Trying to keep up with my collection has become a full time job, so I'm only looking to get back what I've put in.

Please note that buyer is responsible for any shipping charges, or it is available for local pickup in Northern VA.

PAYMENT MUST BE MADE IN FULL WITHIN 1 HOUR OF AUCTION END.

Please message me with any questions.

Thank you!

Lincoln to resurrect old nameplates for China?

Wed, 04 Dec 2013

Judging by the success that many luxury automakers are currently experiencing in China, it's no surprise that Lincoln plans to take advantage of the situation by peddling its wares across the Pacific. Lincoln will open its first Chinese dealership next year, but potential buyers there won't be mucking through the same alphabet soup of car names found in American showrooms. USA Today reports that Ford's luxury car division could revert back to legacy names (like Continental and Zephyr) in China while keeping the MK_ names here in North America.
In speaking to Ford exec Jim Farley during the LA Auto Show, USA Today says that Lincoln could switch its naming structure as models are refreshed. Farley didn't confirm that the naming revamp would be a China-only decision, but article leaves little hope that American buyers will get to see the return of classic names anytime soon.
Why would Ford rehash old Lincoln names for China only? Buyers there seem to have a better historical associations with the nameplates than in the US. Chinese also still hold Lincoln in high regard, associating the marque with use by prominent government officials.

Ford's Galhotra succeeds Farley as head of Lincoln

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Ford Motor Company is announcing a major personnel shakeup that could have a dramatic effect on the future of the Lincoln division. Kumar Galhotra (pictured above), currently vice president of engineering at Ford for all of its vehicles worldwide, is taking over as the president of the luxury brand on September 1, replacing Jim Farley. The automaker is also hiring a new head of advanced engineering.
Galhotra has a huge job ahead of him as the new boss of Lincoln worldwide, overseeing product development, marketing, sales and service. His task is to turn the luxury division into a world-class brand as quickly as possible, and he reports directly to Ford President and CEO Mark Fields.
"These changes underscore our commitment to build on the success of our One Ford plan by accelerating our pace of progress. They also make clear we are serious about Lincoln as a world-class luxury brand and that product excellence and innovation are what will deliver growth and define our entire company going forward," said Fields in the company's announcement.

Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion

Thu, 11 Sep 2014

We all had to see this coming. Conan O'Brien has released a parody of Matthew McConaughey's new ads for the 2015 Lincoln MKC and remixed them with lines from one of his most critically acclaimed recent roles.
The now much darker commercial probably isn't how Lincoln would prefer the MKC to be marketed, but really in a few of the actual ads, McConaughey already seems moments away from breaking into a full Rustin Cohle from True Detective impression. The cadence and tone of his voice are just so close to that character, especially in the one where he's talking to the bull standing in the middle of the road. It very nearly verges on parody anyway; Conan is just turning all of this up to 11.
It's a little surprising that the writers didn't dig a little deeper into the McConaughey oeuvre for the parody. Maybe McConaughey could have taken the MKC for a party at the Moon Tower from Dazed and Confused. In any case, it's worth a quick watch, so check it out.
