1947 LINCOLN ZEPHYR V-12 ENGINE

THIS IS WHAT A TRUE TN SURVIVOR CAR LOOKS LIKE. THIS IS A VERY NICE 1947 LINCOLN THAT STILL CONTAINS MOST ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL COMPONENTS. IT RUNS AND DRIVES OUT VERY NICE AND IS A FINE EXAMPLE OF WHAT YESTYER YEAR LUXURY WAS ALL ABOUT. THIS LITTLE GIRL STARTS RIGHT UP AND IS A PLEASURE TO CRUISE DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHILE BEING ADMIRED BY THE PASSING MOTORIST, BECAUSE IT DEFINITELY GETS ATTENTION!
EXTERIOR: SHE STILL RETAINS HER ORIGINAL COLOR OF GREEN, AND THE PAINT ON HER IS STILL IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. ALL OF THE STAINLESS PIECES ON HER ARE IN VERY NICE CONDITION AND LOOKS VERY GOOD. THE CHROME DOES HAVE SOME PITTING AND PEALING BUT OVERALL STILL LOOKS GOOD. THE ALL METAL BODY IS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS AND NEAR PERFECT CONDITION WITH NO RUST THAT I HAVE FOUND. THE SUICIDE DOORS OPEN AND SHUT NICE. ALL OF THE BODY LINES HAVE A VERY NICE APPEARANCE. SHE IS SITTING ON A SET OF OLD DIMPLED WIDE WHITE WALL TIRES. ALL OF HER TRIM AND EMBLEMS ARE PRESENT AND ACCOUNTED FOR. THE EXTERIOR IS NOT PERFECT BUT PRESENTS ITSELF VERY WELL.
INTERIOR: THE INTERIOR HAS THE ORIGINAL LOOK BUT IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. IT IS DONE IN A TAN/BROWN MOHAIR TYPE MATERIAL THAT LOOKS AND PRESENTS ITSELF VERY WELL. THERE ARE NO (NONE) TEARS OR RIPS THAT I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SEE. THE INTERIOR STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL PULL HANDLES ON THE DOORS, SEATS AND B PILLARS AND ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. ALL OF HER GLASS IS CLEAR AND IN GOOD CONDITION. IT DOES STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL HYDRAULIC WINDOWS AND THEY ALL WORK, BUT SOMETIMES THE SWITCHES DO HAVE A MIND OF THEIR OWN. LOL. THE DASH IS IN VERY NICE CONDITION AND IS A BEAUTY TO LOOK AT WHILE CRUISING HER DOWN THE ROAD. THE LOCKING GLOVE COMPARTMENT STILL RETAINS IT KEY. THIS CAR HAS THE REAR SEAT HEAT FOR COMFORT. THE INTERIOR OF THIS BIG BABY IS VERY NICE AND ROOMY AND IS VERY COMFORTABLE .
DRIVE TRAIN: THIS BIG GIRL IS POWERED BY ITS ORIGINAL 292ci V12 FLAT HEAD MOTOR, AND IS PAIRED UP TO A STANDARD 3 SPEED TRANSMISSION WITH OVERDRIVE. AGAIN THE DRIVE LINE IS ALL ORIGINAL TO THIS CAR AND WORKS AS IT SHOULD. THIS V12 FLAT HEAD STARTS RIGHT UP AND PURRS LIKE A KITTEN. IT HAS A SOUND ALL TO ITS OWN. A NEW DISTRIBUTOR AND IGNITION HAS JUST BEEN INSTALLED (VERY EXPENSIVE) ON THE ENGINE, AS WELL AS NEW MOTOR MOUNTS AND WHEEL CYLINDERS. THIS DRIVE LINE SEEMS TO BE IN VERY GOOD WORKING CONDITION.
OVERALL THIS CAR IS NOT PERFECT, BUT IS NOT FAR FROM BEING READY FOR THAT MUSEUM OR HOME GARAGE. IT LOOKS VERY GOOD, DRIVES VERY GOOD, AND DEMANDS ATTENTION WHEREVER IT GOES. I AM SURE I HAVE LEFT ALOT OUT ON THIS CAR BUT I WOULD LOVE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.

2015 Lincoln Navigator ready to roll for $62,475*

Wed, 21 May 2014

Fancy picking up a refreshed Lincoln Navigator? Well, prepare to shell out at least $62,475. That's a whopping increase of $6,310 for the now-EcoBoost-equipped SUV.
That's just for the two-wheel-drive Select model, though. Want to drive all four wheels? Better have an extra $3,575 laying around. Snagging the top-of-the-line Reserve model, meanwhile, demands a premium of $7,500.
For those extra bills, you'll net Lincoln Drive Control, complete with continuously controlled dampers, power running boards, Ziricote wood interior trim, upgraded leather, 22-inch wheels, a "unique" interior headliner and, of course, a "Reserve" badge.

Lincoln 'not true luxury' yet, says Ford design chief

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

Lincoln is "not true luxury," according to Ford's design boss, J Mays. His statements come from a story in The Detroit News that saw candid language on the issues facing Ford's troubled premium brand. Notably, there's a need for a strong character, with Mays saying, "Every brand needs to have a DNA and a unique selling point and things in the vehicle that make you think, 'That's that particular brand.'"
With a range of rebadged Fords, it's not hard to see why that DNA is missing. Mays hinted that a full recovery for Lincoln will be a ten-year process, that's been kicked off with the MKZ sedan. While that car is still largely a Ford Fusion under its extremely pretty wrapper, it's the first Lincoln in some time to inject its own unique take both through the exterior styling and through interior features, such as the vertical, pushbutton gear selection.
Some analysts weren't so certain about Mays' 10-year estimate. Jim Hall of 2953 Analytics thinks it'll be more like 30 years before Lincoln can show a true return to form. The issue, as Hall explains it, is that, "luxury has a degree of exclusivity," that Lincoln just doesn't have. Michelle Krebs from Edmunds adds, "it's definitely a wanna-be luxury brand," comparing the troubled American brand with Infiniti and Acura, two other brands that have struggled to find their place in the luxury market.
