Up for auction is a 1979 Lincoln Continental Town Car Collector Series, this car nelhas not been driven on road basically for almost 20 years. Its basically would get driven around the neighborhood a few times a year. I have the original book, and the garage door opener kit that came with the car back in 79. The last time it was plated was in 1989. This car is in very good condition but it is a original car, the car from 10 feet away looks to be perfect, but when close there are some things. The deck lid, and hood do have sun fade and should basically be repainted. The sides the paint is glossy and smooth but does have a few dings and nicks, the deck lid has a 4-5 inch scratch and a ding on top of the right read quarter panel from somthing in garage falling on it. The front has rock chips that have been touched up over the years. I did take pictures as best as I could of everyting.. All the chrome is in excellent shape, the wheels, trim, roof, grille all in great shape. The inside is perfect, and everything works, windows, seats, dash lights and all outside lights in working order. Only issue is the Fuel light is wrong because the "sending unit" is bad we beleive. I am helping sell this car for my grandparents as it was friends car that has passed away and no one in the family is good with computer. The car was taken very good care of, and starts upand literlly drives perfect. I was doing 70 mph on freeway and its tight and smooth, shocks are good, tires are good. Overall its in awesome shape for being 30 years old! I am trying to describe the car as best as I can, and I want to make sure people know what they are getting. I would prefer somoen to come look at in person to see the car before any purchase just so they can be happy. If you have any questions please let me know and I will do my best to return them asap.

2002 Lincoln Continental concept should've made production, headed for auction instead
Fri, 26 Sep 2014It seems like the retro design aesthetic in autos might be petering out, with even a former poster child like the Ford Mustang taking a step in a more modern direction. Sometimes those updates of old-school models really worked well, though. Just take a look above at the Lincoln Continental concept from 2002 that took the extruded shape of the 1960s version and updated it for the new millennium.
Now there's a chance for this gorgeous concept to take a spot in your garage, as RM Auctions is selling it as part of a 130-plus-car, no-reserve auction of the Sam Pack Collection on November 14 and 15, in Dallas, TX. Among the lots for sale are a number of Fords, including several recent concepts from the brand. "My collecting philosophy is simple: buy what I like, but always with an emphasis on quality," Pack said in the auction announcement.
The Continental concept absolutely nails the mix of modern and retro. Its perfectly crisp lines make the shape appear hewn from a single piece of metal, and there's just the slightest ornamentation with the angled, chrome slats in the grille and chrome strips over the wheel arches. It even retains the suicide doors from its inspiration.

Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
Lincoln and MKZ propose brand reinvention
Mon, 03 Dec 2012Lincoln made a rather assertive statement about the future of its products at the 2012 LA Auto Show. Rather than put any new vehicle on display for the first press day, the American premium brand placed a collection of classic cars from its past on the show floor. For the second day, that assortment was replaced with more than a half-dozen examples of the all-new 2013 MKZ. Following that, Lincoln teased a new ad campaign that was in the works, and it appears we now have the first extended promotional video.
Entitled "The Lincoln Motor Company," the spot acts as more of a mission statement, rather than an ad, featuring (once again) cars from Lincoln's past, as well as certain bits of Americana usually reserved for a Levi's ad. The video concluded with Lincoln reintroducing itself to the world, accompanied by a new name: The Lincoln Motor Company.
The video is likely to be the first of many in a large advertising blitz by the automaker, in concert with the rolling-out of the new MKZ. The sedan was the only new vehicle featured in the video, and Lincoln is betting heavily on this "reinvention" to bring customers in to see its new sedan. We want to know what's next. Scroll down to watch the video.
