I Received this lincoln as a Payment on a 8,000 dollar Flooring job. I was told that the motor has around 30k on the rebuilt original motor. I'm not into these cars but I saw the value in it. The paint is at least 15 years old from looking at it. Its in driver condition and its not perfect. There's one rust hole in the driver fender up front but other then that its surface rust. The paint actually looks pretty good for its age, I haven't had it detailed or cleaned or buffed at all, It will be very presentable once someone has that done. From what I have learned about the car It needs a generator a starter and new tires to make it a driver. The starter does the old whining thing but it will start it, its more annoying then anything. All The Glass is in good shape with no cracks and I believe its also original. All the windows work but the driver side wing window."the little button is broke off. All the lights work inside and out work" Wippers, all settings on the power seat, blinkers,brake,reverse,tail and high and Low beam ALL work. The Brakes are soft but they do stop it. It actually drives down the road pretty nice I was surprised at the way these big old cars ride. Its pretty much an original car with all original interior.There might be small amounts of filler here and there But nothing that I have found or see. The head liner has holes in it and under the visor is pretty bad.
Radio works the blower motor works, I was told the air conditioning works but the cable for the hot and cold and the defrost and vents is off or broke behind the switch. The worst part about the car is the inside of the trunk lid, Not sure why but its pretty rusted out but only on the inside of the lid? The floors and frame are in Great shape with hardly even surface rust which is rare in Minnesota. If you have any questions please email or call me!!! I have described the Lincoln as best as I can! It Is For sale AS IS WHERE IS. 612-385-1053 Its best to see These old cars in person so if you can you should have it inspected!~!

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.
Lincoln to resurrect old nameplates for China?
Wed, 04 Dec 2013Judging by the success that many luxury automakers are currently experiencing in China, it's no surprise that Lincoln plans to take advantage of the situation by peddling its wares across the Pacific. Lincoln will open its first Chinese dealership next year, but potential buyers there won't be mucking through the same alphabet soup of car names found in American showrooms. USA Today reports that Ford's luxury car division could revert back to legacy names (like Continental and Zephyr) in China while keeping the MK_ names here in North America.
In speaking to Ford exec Jim Farley during the LA Auto Show, USA Today says that Lincoln could switch its naming structure as models are refreshed. Farley didn't confirm that the naming revamp would be a China-only decision, but article leaves little hope that American buyers will get to see the return of classic names anytime soon.
Why would Ford rehash old Lincoln names for China only? Buyers there seem to have a better historical associations with the nameplates than in the US. Chinese also still hold Lincoln in high regard, associating the marque with use by prominent government officials.
Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.
