This is a chance someone to own a for extremely rare and famous REAL Classic car. This car is a factory handmade 1940 Lincoln Zepher Continental Convertible. I am sure any Ford expert would tell you how RARE these cars are. They only made 350 of them in 1940.

I am selling my 1940 Lincoln Zepher Continental Convertible. The car just reeks TOP CLASS and belongs in a car collection to be admired. (This car really belongs in a car collection like Jay Lenos' or a collection that its "class" is going considerable upgrade it. It definitely would upgrade any collection !) I restore antique cars, but am a driver- restorer. My cars in my collection are driven and maybe shown once in a while. This car is too valuable and rare for my taste and restoration. The car needs restoration but is remarkable condition for it's age. What is for sale is the combination of two Lincoln convertibles (one a bit more rusty than the other).

Most of the parts of sheet metal on the car that have rust have been reproduced. There is a new dash, two sets of top irons, two steering columns and steering wheels, complete interior (if not then there is at least 97% there), the Columbia rear end, four doors, fenders that are practically rust free and two practically rust free hoods, bumpers and a ton of interior parts and exterior parts, etc.

In other words, at least two of just about everything. Or about four of the things you would need two of!

I want to sell the Lincoln, but I'm going to be perfectly honest about Lorane (the name my family gave to the Lincoln). The car is a restores dream. It will be fairly easy to restore (been there and done that), but it will not be able to done on a shoestring. A car of this quality and fame will require the top of line no matter what has to be done. But it will well worth the investment ! This year Lincoln is extremely rare and valuable !

Don't insult me with low ballers, please. I know what the car is worth.

Now, before I get a bunch of Ford people calling me about the Lincolns history I want everyone to know that what I know about the car is what I've been told and have not done a bunch of research on the car.

Any questions call me at 815-351-6655.

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too

Thu, 22 Nov 2012

The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.

Report: Lincoln getting all of Mercury's ad dollars

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

Now that the curtain has closed on Mercury, Ford Motor Company will redirect all of its marketing dollars for the oft-overlooked brand to the Blue Oval's luxury outpost, Lincoln. In speaking to Automotive News, the chairman of the Lincoln National Dealer Council, Bob Tasca, Jr., said, "You'll see a lot stronger presence in the advertising of Lincoln in 2011."
Lincoln spokesperson Christian Bokich reminded AN that the automaker is "preparing the way for seven new or significantly refreshed vehicles" that will be launched over the next four years, and the largest ad blitz in 2011 will focus on the refreshed MKX crossover, as well as the MKZ sedan and its hybrid counterpart. Following that, Lincoln has plans to launch a completely overhauled version of its Navigator SUV, an all-new C-segment vehicle and the overhauled 2013 MKZ, which Tasca says will be "strikingly different from its Ford Fusion sibling."
