1969 Lincoln Mark Iii 67k Miles 2 Owner on 2040-cars
Raymore, Missouri, United States
|
You're bidding on a 67,331 mile rock solid 1969 Lincoln Mark III. The vehicle is almost all original, including the paint and interior, and was stored in a heated and cool garage for the last 25 years. The vehicle was in the same small town it's whole life out in Western Kansas until I brought it home to the Kansas City area. I purchased it from the second owners, an elderly couple, who purchased it about 30 years ago from their friend who was the original owner. I have the original documents, registrations and owner's manuals. The title is clear and still in the second owner's name.
Before the previous owner was the retired American Family Insurance Agent in the small town and he wanted to make sure the car was running driving correctly, so he had the car taken to his repair shop of many years where they rebuilt the top half of the engine (heads, intake, carb and tune up). The day I picked the car up I drove it right out of his garage. The only thing I've done to the vehicle thus far was to replace the water pump on the day the pictures were taken and add a set of brand new wheels (Liquid Metal Renegade Polished 75 15x8s) and tires (BF Goodrich Radial T/A P225/60R15) to the vehicle. I have the original wheels and hubcaps which will go with the car. The car has original paint. To really shine the paint needs to buffed and or polished. Of course there's some small door dings and scratches. The interior is all original and almost near perfect! The seats, dash pad, headliner and everything else is original and in incredible condition. The body has almost NOOOOOO rust. The underside is in amazing rust free condition. There's on a small rust spot on the left rear quarter and NOOOOOO where else. The car is way cool to drive and gets a lot of looks. The only thing a buyer would plan on repairing is the original exhaust is leaking. I was going to put a set of dual turbo mufflers for a great sound. Sometimes the head light doors close and sometimes the stay open. I've never had a chance to look at them. My intentions was to license the car and drive it to work several days a weeks during the nice months of the year and maybe out at night once and in awhile, however plans have changed and I really don't have room inside my garage for the car long term. I refuse to park/store the vehicle outside, so I'll try to sell it once otherwise I'll rent a climate controlled storage unit. Anyone is welcome to come view the vehicle prior to the auction ending. If you have any questions please feel free email and or call me at 816.590.7660. Thank you, Chris |

Weekly Recap: New bosses try to jump-start Cadillac and Lincoln
Sat, 26 Jul 2014
Both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
It's ironic that Cadillac and Lincoln got new bosses within days of each other this month. It's also a commentary on the fact both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
Huge JFK auction includes two classic Lincolns
Wed, 09 Oct 2013Want to own a piece of American history? Perhaps you should consider 35th President John F. Kennedy's limousine, a stretched 1960 Lincoln Continental, or the last car he safely rode in before his assassination, a 1963 Lincoln Continental convertible. Both of them will be up for sale at the Camelot: Fifty Years after Dallas auction on October 24, a JFK 50th anniversary auction in Boston.
The black 1960 Continental was part of the presidential motorcade and is bulletproof. The body has been restored to the tune of about $35,000, according to RR Auctions, but the interior was left alone. That's okay, because the winning bidder will be able to enjoy lounging in the well-preserved seats and stepping on the original tan carpeting, just as President Kennedy did. The next owner can even play President, with a divider window, passenger air controls and a two-way telephone - if a chauffeur is hired, of course. The starting bid for the Continental is $25,000.
The other car is more historically relevant (but in this writer's eye, less beautiful), and commands a starting bid of $50,000. The white, convertible 1963 Continental was the last car President Kennedy rode in before his assassination in Dallas - with a notarized document by the car's owner at the time as proof. It was used to transport the President, his wife, Jacqeuline, and Texas governor John Connally "from a breakfast and speech at the Texas Hotel ballroom through the streets of Fort Worth to Carswell Air Force Base, where they boarded a short flight to Dallas on the morning of November 22, 1963," according to RR Auctions. Lincoln specialist Baker Restoration in Connecticut restored the car, which included an engine replacement, body work and paint. Most of the interior, including the seats, are in original condition.
Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion
Thu, 11 Sep 2014We 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.
