1971 Lincoln Mark Iii on 2040-cars
Spokane, Washington, United States
|
I have mentioned everything to the best of my knowledge in the description of the car. It's not perfect but a super nice driver and it's clean. I have enjoyed this car but I need to thin out my collection. The Lincoln is all up to date with service. You will need to fix the gas gauge,don't know whay it doesn't work. It has a full tank of premium gas in it right now though. Surprising enough,I keep track of the mileage on the odometer. It is getting around 13 MPG in the city with the 460. I know that doesn't sound great,but I don't drive this everyday. Most 460's get 10 or less.
I have replaced the wipers,new fluids,new battery,oil change,air cleaner and cleaned everything. It comes with a box of extra parts like hard to find moldings,an original 8 track player/stereo from another Mark III,tail light lenses,chrome for the taillights and lots of other small things. The engine bay is spotless(I will add a photo of that tomorrow). It will need a glove box button which you can find here on eBay for not much money. I just have way too many projects and hate to see this car sit here. I want someone who will love it,pamper it and enjoy it. :) I always loved the '71 movie "The French Connection" and every time I drive this car I feel like I'm part of the movie. It's pretty fun. This Lincoln will not win you an award right now at a car show but is it car show material? Absolutely. 80 mph in the car feels like you're going 30 and at 80 it's not even breathing hard. It wants to go faster but I don't want to get pulled over. ;) I have all of the paperwork and receipts for everything. I have paperwork going back to 1986 on the car,original owner's manual,window sticker,dealer brochure,and Protecto plate. I also have a wiring and vacuum diagram for the new owner in aid of any service or repair down the line if needed. If in Washington state,the tabs are current. As you will see in pictures,it was photographed in different locations I thought looked neat. Yes,that is me standing next to the car in one of my favorite areas called Browne's Addition. It is a turn key car. You will be able to get in,fire it up and go cruise. Now,I am putting my reserve low as to clear my expenses and investment. It's not going to be very high. I am going to sell the car. I just want to break even. Anything else is great and all,but I'm not worried about that. If you are looking at this auction,you know what these are worth and my starting price is a going to be a steal. As I stated,it will need some work but nothing super major. Needs nothing on the drivetrain. I made sure of that. Get in,buckle up and drive it. Buyer will be responsible for any costs for shipping if needed. If close,you can drive this home. Thank you for looking and feel free to ask any questions if you need to. Thanks a ton and have a great day! :) Jason |

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 $5B revival bid hinges upon new D6 chassis
Mon, 27 Oct 2014It's no secret that Lincoln has received short shrift from the Ford Motor Company for years, and former CEO Alan Mullay even wanted to kill the whole thing off when he ran things. Today, things appear to be trending in a different direction. Fresh investment has helped enable a sizable marketing push for its well-regarded MKC compact crossover, a couple of awards for the company and plant the seeds for a major expansion into China. While the situation is still in the early going, it looks like Lincoln is on a tentative (if long) path towards a turnaround. If new reports are accurate, the brand is poised to build on that momentum with its largest investment in new products in years thanks in large measure to a new modular platform codenamed D6.
According to four unnamed insiders speaking to Reuters, FoMoCo is investing over $5 billion over the next five years, partially to create a new modular platform to underpin multiple Lincoln vehicles - and possibly some Ford products, too. Development is reportedly being overseen by the division's new boss, Kumar Galhotra. At the moment, specific details about the D6 chassis aren't yet known, but it's rumored to have the flexibility to support front-, rear- and all-wheel drive vehicles. According to Reuters, the first model using the framework could be an MKZ replacement and seven-passenger MKT successor in 2019.
Until the D6-based models hit, expect to see continued expansion from Lincoln. Ford management isn't trying to turn around the division overnight and is planning "in terms of generations of products," according to current CEO Mark Fields. The strategy unsurprisingly includes a production version of Lincoln's recent MKX Concept, as well as an all-new Navigator using aluminum-intensive architecture. Reuters also claims the MKS is due for renewal in the meantime, including with a longer-wheelbase version to appeal to the brand's new Chinese buyers.
Lincoln Navigator facelift only has to last until 2016 replacement
Thu, 21 Aug 2014The Navigator is not only Lincoln's longest-serving nameplate - dating back to 1998 when the final Town Car was introduced - but it's also the oldest model still in the brand's portfolio. The current Navigator arrived on the market in 2007, and underwent a refresh just a few months ago for the 2015 model year. The updates were subtle, but if you're waiting for an all-new model, it's just a couple of years down the road.
According to Automotive News, Lincoln is already working on an all-new replacement for the current, long-serving Navigator, which will be revealed two years from now in the middle of 2016 as a 2017 model. At that point, we're expecting it could switch (alongside the Expedition) to the new aluminum architecture introduced on the Ford F-150, seeing as how the current model is based on the old F-150.
In the meantime, the refreshed Navigator ditches the big 5.4-liter Triton V8 in favor of a more economical 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, and wages war in two wheelbase lengths against the V8-powered competition in the form of the Cadillac Escalade (and Escalade ESV), the Land Cruiser-based Lexus LX and the Infiniti QX80, which is based on the overseas Nissan Patrol.
