I'm selling this vehicle for my 82 year old Father who is suffering with alzheimer's disease. Because of this, I can't not ask him any questions regarding this car. My Father owned this vehicle nearly 30 years. It was stored in a garage 99% of the time, usually taken out twice a year to display at a local automotive show. During the many years that he owned this car, all he ever did was just wash and wax it.
Condition: To the best of my knowledge he never had any mechanical or body work done. The odometer shows approximately 48,000 miles, I'm almost certain that he never drove it for more than 5,000 miles during the entire time he owned it. The tires have decent tread but are mismatched, probably should be replaced as they have been sitting for years. A/C does not blow cold. RH door ashtray lid does not stay closed. Power door locks , electric antenna and cigar lighter do not function. Not all of the electric seat adjusting switches work. There is a spare tire but it is not mounted on a wheel. Hide away headlamp doors must have a slow vacuum leak as they do not stay closed overnight. I was not able to check the cruise control on my short test drive. Engine starts right up and ran fairly well. Transmission shifted smoothly. Good brakes. The body and paint are in good condition but do have various dings, paint chips, scratches and surface rust. If you are interested in owning a low mileage classic car that needs some TLC to bring it back to its original glory then this car might be for you.
Early History: From what I recall, this car started its life in Iowa. The owner had driven it for several years accumulating approximately 40,000 miles on it. It was then stolen, the thieves eventually parked the car in a muti-level parking garage where it remained for years. The parking garage must have been managed by idiots because it took years for them to notice the car and alert the authorities. My Father then purchased the car from the insurance company that had paid the claim for the stolen car. This history was told to me by word of mouth and I can't verify any of it. If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact me.

Ford Q3 pretax profits drop to $1.18B
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Following positive third quarter financial results recently from General Motors, rival Ford took a tumble in Q3. The automaker posted pre-tax profits of $1.18 billion, compared to about $2.59 billion in Q3 2013, a drop of around 54 percent. Net income also suffered with $835 million made in the quarter, versus $1.272 billion last year, a decline of about 34 percent. The Blue Oval blamed the gloomy figures on three reasons in its release: "lower volume, higher warranty costs and adverse balance sheet exchange effects."
There were problems of one kind or another in practically every region. North America experienced higher warranty costs than expected, partially due to recalls. The sales volume for the quarter was 665,000 units, versus 725,000 in Q3 2013, and pre-tax results amounted to $1.41 billion versus $2.296 billion last year.
South America and Europe both posted worse pre-tax results than last year. On the bright side, European volume was up slightly to 321,000 vehicles, from 303,000 in Q3 2013. The Middle East and Africa also lost $15 million, but that was an improvement compared to the $25 million loss previously experienced in this region.
2015 Lincoln MKC aims to rejuvenate the brand... again
Wed, 20 Nov 2013Ford is slowly but surely attempting to revitalize the Lincoln brand, with the new MKZ sedan pointing the way forward for the Blue Oval's struggling luxury division. Here at the LA Auto Show, Lincoln is showing the next new product that aims to give the brand new life, the 2015 MKC crossover.
The MKC is based on the trusty Ford Escape, but this is far more than just a rebadge job. Lincoln has used completely new sheetmetal here, with the brand's familiar split-wing grille front and center, and a classy, wraparound tailgate with super slim taillamps that span the width of the hatchback. It's one of the better applications of Lincoln's new design language we've seen thus far, and the end result is a taut-looking crossover that is at the same time both modern and luxurious-looking.
Further differentiating itself from the Escape, the MKC packs an all-new 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, good for 275 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque. (On the base end, Ford's 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder with 240 hp and 270 lb-ft is available.) The MKC also uses a new Continuously Controlled Damping adaptive suspension, and is available with both front- and all-wheel drive.
Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks
Sun, 31 Mar 2013Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.
