If you demand the best then I have something for your. From my Private Collection is a very rare find. This is a ONE of ONE in existence with these options 1978 Lincoln Continental Williamsburg Limited Edition! A Marti Report takes the options a vehicle has and compares them to all of the others to see how many of your particular vehicles are in existence. Often referred to as a one off car. The report is certified and it did cost about $250 to have this prepared. This is the only one in the world!! My Lincoln was judged at the Lincoln Continental Owners Club (LCOC) National show as a 95.86 point out of 100 show car and won first place. I was even lucky enough to get the judging sheets used to review the car and I will give them to the new owner. I have the factory window sticker showing that in 1978 this car was just about $14,000! Now for the history of this Lincoln. It was a Special Order Lincoln by Betty Arnovitz which included the Williamsburg Limited Edition package and even 4 wheel disk brakes. The second owner purchased the car from 83 year old Betty in 2009. The vehicle was purchased by MJC Classic Cars in Florida who only buys the best of the best Lincolns. My Uncle is a car collector from Pennsylvania that purchased this car from MJC Classic Cars for $11,500 in 2012. My Uncle traded the 1978 Lincoln in on a 1967 250SL Mercedes I had in 2013. He drove it up 300 miles from Pennsylvania to Victor, NY. Back to my Uncle. Upon delivery of the car my Uncle took the 78 Lincoln into a shop he uses and told them to freshen up everything on the car. His bill was just shy of $8,600 and replaced just about everything!! It's no wonder the car received 95.86 points in judging. He is very particular and spent many hours perfecting every detail in his power to make this car the best he could. You can see how I had to have it! The car is amazing in every way! The car floats! The air conditioning is freezing cold. You really feel like you are in 1978 when you are behind the wheel of this car. It smells just as new inside. The leather is factory fresh and spotless!! The paint is brilliant!! The Champaign Valino Coach vinyl top is soft! The motor is so clean and fresh!! Under the car is very clean! The pictures were taken June 17, 2014. The car is in my warehouse and will not move until the new buyer picks it up or has it shipped so it's in the exact same condition as the ad states. No moth ball smell, smoke, mold, must or filth stink. These carpets have never been wet to shampoo. The car should be in a museum. EVERYTHING operates properly! If I had to really get picky I would say that the rear drivers side window is not moving with the regulator that holds the glass as it should. The car has a rebuilt carburetor that may hesitate just a tad. The car is a limited use vehicle and is insured with Hagerty Antique and Classic insurance for a few hundred bucks a year with full coverage. At the end of the pictures it shows the Marti Report, Factory Window Sticker and the $8600 spent in April 2012 at 55,000 miles. No extra fees in my auction. Clean title in hand. This car is a steal!!  photo DSC09227_zps0023ed52.jpg  photo DSC09228_zps00a12206.jpg  photo DSC09229_zpsf6d72d5c.jpg  photo DSC09230_zpsc34166e1.jpg  photo DSC09231_zpsd04f75af.jpg  photo DSC09232_zpseb95092c.jpg  photo DSC09233_zpscccbe7da.jpg  photo DSC09234_zpsc7bae1a5.jpg  photo DSC09235_zps3da1a452.jpg  photo DSC09240_zpsce7bd820.jpg  photo DSC09241_zpsf0230586.jpg  photo DSC09242_zpse7ac4839.jpg  photo DSC09243_zps86358e4c.jpg  photo DSC09244_zpsac4972c8.jpg  photo DSC09245_zpsc2fe8c3a.jpg  photo DSC09246_zps2f7827b5.jpg  photo DSC09247_zpsf85e49fd.jpg  photo DSC09248_zpsce47e29d.jpg  photo DSC09249_zpsd6069c77.jpg  photo DSC09250_zps8ef09c71.jpg  photo DSC09251_zpsdc1cd8a3.jpg  photo DSC09252_zpsa8312bb8.jpg  photo DSC09253_zps5770253d.jpg  photo DSC09254_zps5b9e28f1.jpg  photo DSC09255_zps034f56da.jpg  photo DSC09256_zpsbd81a95d.jpg  photo DSC09257_zpsfb198f3f.jpg  photo DSC09258_zps5cd7de7b.jpg  photo DSC09259_zps391cd8ac.jpg  photo DSC09260_zps7b43ac7c.jpg  photo DSC09261_zps56bf1755.jpg  photo DSC09262_zpsab891dbf.jpg  photo DSC09263_zpsfe054909.jpg  photo DSC09264_zps84c37785.jpg  photo DSC09265_zps11370db0.jpg  photo DSC09266_zpsa067267c.jpg  photo DSC09267_zps50cc16dd.jpg  photo DSC09268_zps88815d53.jpg  photo DSC09236_zpsb98e26e9.jpg  photo DSC09237_zpsf6ef708f.jpg  photo DSC09238_zps0da7dd52.jpg  photo DSC09239_zpsc61b5c07.jpg  photo DSC09269_zpsbdf5bccf.jpg  photo DSC09270_zpse69d0849.jpg  photo DSC09271_zps77618aae.jpg  photo DSC09272_zps31041e6b.jpg  photo DSC09273_zps0bd1b8f9.jpg  photo DSC09274_zpscf2b2d3f.jpg  photo DSC09275_zps43bd685f.jpg  photo DSC09276_zpsec7e0300.jpg  photo DSC09277_zpsc6a8755a.jpg  photo DSC09278_zpsf20104c0.jpg  photo DSC09279_zps05eb7550.jpg  photo DSC09280_zpsd22487c2.jpg  photo DSC09281_zpsc66cf68c.jpg  photo DSC09282_zps138091fb.jpg  photo DSC09283_zps91b235e1.jpg  photo DSC09284_zps26995e92.jpg  photo DSC09285_zps5e250cbf.jpg  photo DSC09286_zps4ed670c2.jpg  photo DSC09287_zps8c1d2d6b.jpg  photo DSC09288_zps845304d3.jpg  photo DSC09289_zpsa4d17317.jpg  photo DSC09290_zps70c916bc.jpg  photo DSC09291_zps771af231.jpg  photo DSC09226_zps516c70e9.jpg  photo DSC09292_zpscc412f16.jpg  photo DSC09293_zpsb26121e8.jpg  photo DSC09294_zps13d373e3.jpg  photo DSC09361_zps025f42b0.jpg  photo DSC09362_zps3160bcce.jpg  photo DSC09363_zps7ba72b9e.jpg  photo DSC09364_zps8de8e7c8.jpg  photo DSC09365_zps2cdbccee.jpg  photo DSC09366_zps4053d94a.jpg  photo DSC09367_zps117e62ad.jpg  photo DSC09368_zpscbc267a2.jpg  photo DSC09369_zpsc27f704a.jpg  photo DSC09370_zps972c9e09.jpg  photo DSC09371_zpsbaaa973a.jpg

GM design boss Welburn says Lincoln isn't a Cadillac rival [w/poll]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

General Motors Vice President of Global Design, Ed Welburn, had some dismissive words for a certain cross-town luxury brand during an interview with Car and Driver. When asked about his thoughts on Lincoln, Welburn deflected, before saying, "I don't consider Lincoln to be a competitor for Cadillac."
"They're not a global luxury brand. I don't consider them a competitor. Are they a competitor for Buick? Quite possibly. But not for Cadillac," GM's head designer explained. Welburn, who's been at the helm of GM Design North America since 2003 and is the first to hold the position of VP of Global Design, has been instrumental in the styling renaissance at GM, so predictably, Car and Driver's interview with him focused on the design aspect of cars.
During the interview, Welburn explicitly denied plans for a reborn Cadillac XLR, even as a new Chevrolet Corvette is hitting the market and strides are being made with Cadillac's V-Series performance arm saying, "We have a lot of cars that we're working on for the Cadillac brand. The XLR is not one of them right now."

Ford Q3 pretax profits drop to $1.18B

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Following positive third quarter financial results recently from General Motors, rival Ford took a tumble in Q3. The automaker posted pre-tax profits of $1.18 billion, compared to about $2.59 billion in Q3 2013, a drop of around 54 percent. Net income also suffered with $835 million made in the quarter, versus $1.272 billion last year, a decline of about 34 percent. The Blue Oval blamed the gloomy figures on three reasons in its release: "lower volume, higher warranty costs and adverse balance sheet exchange effects."
There were problems of one kind or another in practically every region. North America experienced higher warranty costs than expected, partially due to recalls. The sales volume for the quarter was 665,000 units, versus 725,000 in Q3 2013, and pre-tax results amounted to $1.41 billion versus $2.296 billion last year.
South America and Europe both posted worse pre-tax results than last year. On the bright side, European volume was up slightly to 321,000 vehicles, from 303,000 in Q3 2013. The Middle East and Africa also lost $15 million, but that was an improvement compared to the $25 million loss previously experienced in this region.

Ford recalling 850,000 cars and SUVs for airbag issues

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

Ford 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.
