Simi Valley, California, United States

Up for sale and your consideration is this beautiful Lincoln Continental Convertible which was completely restored 3 years ago. It has less than 1,000 miles put on car since this rebuild. It has been stored in the garage the whole time except for the occasional cruise/ thrill ride around the town with the family. Lot's of ooh's and ahh's when in this car. It turns lots of heads everytime it goes out. There may be some that look like this, but they don't compare. You are welcome to come see it for yourself in Simi Valley, California.
This car has it's original 430 mel motor, completely rebuilt all new and it's transmission was also completely rebuilt. The 430 mel motor is the factory motor before the 460 came out in 1969. Great running, great power motor and always very reliable. The wheels package are custom one off wheels from Mob Steel made by MHT. The wheels are 22" and fit bad ass in the wheel wells. Falken tires, fronts are 265/30/22 and rears are 295/25/22. Brand new condition. CPP 13" front disk brakes and 12" rear disk brakes with drilled and slotted rotors. 4 link rear end control by Air Ride Suspension. Alpine stereo with 2 amps, 2- 12 inch woofers and 2 -10 woofers, sounds AMAZING!! Two new batteries also. Car is Triple Black with a brand new Phantom black top, new black carpet, new custom door panels, white and black. Custom leather seats that match the door panels. Looks beautiful!! New exhaust,
2-1/2 pipes with flow master 3 chamber mufflers at the rear of car so the ride is quiet inside and next to or behind the car it sounds really aggresive. The car was painted 3 1/2 years ago and constantly garaged. It does need some minor touches to car since being stored in the garage and kids in and out of the garage. Minor, nothing major at all. Before this car was restored, there was a little spot of rust in the right rear floor panel which was patched in and repaired. You'd never know it if I didn't tell you. That was the extent of any rust, but it was all done right.
The body
and frame were perfect, it had never been smashed or in an accident of any kind. I want to be upfront about anything so there are no surprises. On the driver side passenger door, there is a small ding from the kids bicycle. Also, the rear bumper left side has a scrape/ scratch on it. See pics. If any pictures of anything are required, please contact me. This car is for sale locally in Simi Valley so I reserve the right to cancel auction at any time if it sells outside of ebay. Do not ask me to end auction early. This car will sell whether local or here on ebay. Reserve is set well below what I have into this phenomenal car. I am an honest person and expect the same in return. Thank you for looking and happy bidding.

Lincoln prepping MKZ re-launch?
Thu, 04 Apr 2013Launching an all-new car is no easy task. Case in point is the 2013 Lincoln MKZ, introduced with the fanfare of a major nationwide marketing campaign, including expensive Super Bowl ads, just as Ford was curbing production over potential quality issues. The resulting mess was nothing short of a nightmare for any automaker - customers visiting dealerships looking for cars that hadn't been delivered yet. Disappointed buyers walked out of Lincoln retailers without new keys in their hands, or switched to a competing brand to fill empty spaces in their driveways.
The impact was painful, as Lincoln's sales in January and February of this year were among the lowest it has recorded in more than a quarter century. Even though March looked a bit brighter, with the supply crisis reportedly over (there are 3,000 units in transit and production is approaching 200 units per day) the automaker is reportedly studying the feasibility of giving its pivotal MKZ the launch it originally deserved.
According to TheDetroitBureau.com, putting the MKZ back on consumer's radar could cost Ford tens of millions of dollars, but that kind of investment may be warranted if potential buyers have forgotten about the new model... or worse, if they have forgotten about Lincoln.
Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue
Fri, 15 Aug 2014Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.
Lincoln MKC Concept shows real promise [w/video]
Sun, 13 Jan 2013Ford's efforts to resuscitate its moribund Lincoln luxury brand began in earnest with the introduction of its 2014 MKZ sedan, a model many labeled as the marque's make-or-break offering. Of course, one model does not a comeback make, and with the MKZ just now starting to trickle into dealers, it will be some time before America's jury of consumers comes in with their judgment. More to the point, it's likely to take better than a decade's worth of products and sustained marketing effort to even begin to figure out whether Lincoln has a shot at redemption or if it will die of Mercury poisoning. After all, rival General Motors has been pouring resources into Cadillac since the late '90s, and if the sales charts are any guidance, it's still probably too early to declare its rebirth a success.
Certainly, a brand with Ford's resources, free of distractions (read: the now-defunct Premier Auto Group and various other side projects) should be able to successfully market a single luxury brand, particularly one with such a rich - if distant - history. Especially now with the Blue Oval enjoying more consumer goodwill than at any time in recent history. So let's all give Alan Mulally and friends a little room to work, eh?
We can start by focusing on the compact crossover seen before you, the Lincoln MKC Concept. Riding atop the same global C-platform that underpins the Ford C-Max, Escape and Focus, the MKC showcar here presages a production small CUV that will stick its distinctive nose into one of the auto industry's fastest-growing segments.
