1979 Lincoln Town Car on 2040-cars
Hixson, Tennessee, United States
This car is being sold as a private sale by my grandmother in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The car was owned by my late grandfather, and I remember growing up seeing that car in the garage each time I would visit. I am working on getting all the details, but here is what she emailed me for the time being: "I had a new compressor for the AC installed. I ran it once and it quit. They found a leak and thought all was well but it quit again. They kept it a couple of weeks. They put die in the system and again thought all was well. I ran it again and it quit. This time it was a fuse. I don't run it to do errands because of parking spaces and I parked at the mall for a rather long time and someone put a deep scratch on the rear fender - driver's side. I plan to have it detailed and I will ask if they can do something to fix that scratch. So far it has been running without any problems. It is a 1979 Lincoln Town Car. It has always been kept in the garage but after so many years it does need a new top and a paint job. The leather still looks great except there is a little wear on the driver's seat. It has 4 new tires and the breaks have been worked on so all is well with them. The stitching came loose on the inside top over windshield. I wanted to have it replaced but I was told it was a very big job with that type car so all he did was give me matching thread and I did my best to sew it back. I have had the same garage service the car since Grandpop became ill and I have the service tickets from about that time. I don't know what else to tell you but if you need more let me know. I just thought about the odometer--It was replaced and I'm not sure about the exact milage. It must be near 100,000 miles but when Grandpop was sick I think a new head was installed. The engine is in very good condition and passes the emissions test that we have to pass to renew our licenses." If you'd like to look at the car, please feel free to contact me so I can set up a meeting. Thanks for looking, and we hope you have a great week! -Doug |

2015 Lincoln Navigator puts on a brave face, offers EcoBoost V6 only
Thu, 23 Jan 2014
Lincoln has finally given its SUV a facelift after seven long years.
Seven years is a long time. For the auto industry, though, seven years is an absolute eternity. Most vehicles receive clean-sheet redesigns within the span of seven years, usually getting a facelift of some sort after year three or four. Not Lincoln.
Lincoln MKC configurator comes alive
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Lincoln has already announced most of the trim level and option pricing for its upcoming 2015 MKC due out this summer, and now it has launched a configurator allowing prospective buyers to get a better idea of how this new model will stack up against other compact luxury crossovers. We already knew that the MKC will have a starting price of $33,995, but now we know that its price includes a destination charge of $895.
Models equipped with the base 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine come standard with the Premiere package - $33,100 for front-wheel drive and $35,595 for all-wheel drive. Both models offer equipment upgrades from the Select and Reserve packages. The $3,230 Select package adds features like leather seats, power passenger seat, folding and heated door mirrors and painted 18-inch wheels, while the pricier $6,935 Reserve package adds in heated and cooled front seats, panoramic roof, hands-free liftgate, two-tone wheels and an embedded modem (providing features such as remote lock and unlock, vehicle finder and pre-conditioning).
Opting for the new 2.3-liter EcoBoost inline-four raises the base price to $39,965, and it comes standard with all-wheel drive and all of the equipment in the Select package; the Reserve package is still optional. All models can be further optioned up with the $2,235 Technology Package (adding adaptive cruise, active park assist and lane keeping system) and the $580 Climate Package (heated rear seats and steering wheel, auto high beams and rain-sensing wipers). Checking all the options, a fully loaded 2015 MKC with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost will have a total MSRP of $47,715.
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.
