1969 Lincoln Mark Iii Base 7.5l on 2040-cars
Saint Petersburg, Florida, United States
Up for sale is a rare, 1969 Lincoln Contential Mark III. This car was built in April of 1968 as a 1969 model. Quite expensive back then as they were the choice for wealthly businessmen, actors and performers like Johny Cash. This car was painted back to the originial color a few years ago. Paint still looks good. The vinial top was replaced with the corect pattern and still looks good. The interior fron seats are on good contition with no tears or rips. The rear seat does have about an eight inch leather piece that has cracked due to the heat. Carpet and headliner are in good condition. All glass is fine and have marks on them. The engine starts, runs and drives fine. The fuel tank is off the car. It will need to be cleaned, and a new sending unit will need to be installed. Ebay sells these. The alt may not be hooked up corrected as it was rebuilt. It seems that the alt does not charge the battery as it should. Just recheck connection. The AC has been converted to R134 and did blow cold. The headlight doors stay open, but once car is running, can be closed by hand and the doors will stay closed. Chrome and moulding are good. The lens could be improved up and are readly available. This car would make a good father son project that will need a little TLC but shouldn't brake the bank. These cars made good drivers and will go up in value in the years to come. The car currently runs on a gas jug located in the trunk. I tried to describle the car as fair as posible. |

Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment
Thu, 20 Mar 2014One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.
Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
Is Lincoln MKC cutting into Cadillac SRX sales?
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The two big American luxury brands of Cadillac and Lincoln are on surprisingly similar paths at the moment with both divisions hoping to redefine themselves and grow popularity. They're still early in the process with no clear winner yet, but things might actually be looking up for Lincoln's latest model, according to a monthly sales analysis from The Motley Fool. It seems, at least early on, that the new MKC crossover might be taking a bite out of the Cadillac SRX's growth.
The MKC launched just a few months ago and has been getting a big marketing push from a series of oft-mocked ads starring the smooth-talking Matthew McConaughey. The luxury CUV has been the popular, new kid on the block with growing sales since its introduction. While smaller than the SRX, the Lincoln starts at a lower price and offers better fuel economy.
Through June, the SRX performed well with sales up over 20 percent on average through June, according to The Motley Fool. However, July and August saw things plummet with year-over-year drops of 7 percent and 37 percent, respectively. It still far outsold the MKC in terms of actual units in a given month, but the Caddy's continued growth has appeared to stagnate.
