good condition. It does have the typical small crack along left side of speaker
grille. Not sure why but nearly All these Lincolns have a crack there? Must
have been a design flaw? In addition to the interior Cost… We just had ALL
windows on the car completely serviced and they work great from ALL switches. 1.
All Glass and window regulators etc. were completely removed
from doors, cleaned/ lubricated and reinstalled. 2.
Windows were All adjusted to raise and lower evenly. SEE
PHOTO of Car with Top Down but Windows UP. It shows how perfectly even they are
when in up position. 3.
Switches were ALL cleaned and or replaced. This window service was an
additional $2,800 in labor/materials. -Vent fan works, radio works and power antenna goes up and down, as it should. -A/c needs charged/serviced from lack of use. Exterior: -The paint on the car is the factory “A” Code Black. This car has been repainted in its orig. BLACK color. Current condition of paint is good. Not concourse show quality but very nice driver. Buyer should expect to see some flaws in paint / minor dings in paint from storage. A few thin spots here and there where buffer went slightly through paint. Car is rust free and solid. The car was completely disassembled and re-painted. This was NOT masking taped and sprayed….The ENTIRE car was medina blasted inside and out. Primer sealed and then repainted in its original Black color. Bumpers, Grill, Windshield, All trim, Top, etc. were all removed for this process. You will not see over spray on trim pieces etc. Car was done right and it is not caked with layers of old paint like most of these cars that have quickie re-sprays. Great gloss shine. Good driver+ quality. Black is Beautiful!! Nothing better than an ORIGINAL
factory BLACK LINCOLN! Note 1: When the
car was restored a N.O.S hood was installed. This hood did not have the hood
ornament hole punched. We decided not to install it. I will include the orig.
hood ornament in sale for the buyer which can be easily installed by drilling a
hole for it.(I think it looks great without it) Note 2: We have a load photos of the process showing disassembly avail. By request. - Very dry and clean underneath with no rust! (See photos) -
Chrome on front and rear bumper is driver quality. -

done to the car including… -new spark plugs -new cap & rotor -new wires -Fresh Lube, Oil & Filter change last week -BRAND NEW White Wall Tires installed last week.

Everything was gone thru including relays, pumps, etc. Everything operates just as it did from the factory. Top can be raised and lowered with ease and
it is quite the site to see!!! Top material is original style stay fast canvas and is in good condition. Still fits nice and is soft.

RWD Lincolns are coming, fate depends partly on MKZ success
Tue, 04 Dec 2012The product portfolio at Lincoln may seem a bit sparse at the moment, but if a report is to be believed, new products are on the way. TheDetroitBureau.com spoke with sources at Lincoln and Ford, who claimed the American premium brand is working on, perhaps more than one, rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
Lincoln would likely platform-share with the next-generation Ford Mustang to develop those RWD offerings in the early going. Moving forward, the report indicates that Lincoln could take the lead on other rear-drive projects in the future. As the RWD architecture continues to take shape, "most or all" of the front-wheel-drive portfolio will also be offered with all-wheel drive as an option, ala Audi.
But wait, there's more! The report also suggests that a replacement for the full-size MKS is on the way, as well as a new Navigator and a luxury crossover based on the current Ford Escape.
Junkyard Gem: 2004 Lincoln Navigator Ultimate 4x4
Tue, Oct 24 2023Things in the American SUV world got a lot more interesting during the late 1990s, when Ford and GM realized that the best way to print bales of money did not involve bringing over their European-market sedans for sale here. Instead, they would take their big sport utility vehicles, pry off the badges of their proletariat-grade marques, and slather them in luxury materials and the latest gadgetry. Ford was first with the Ford Expedition-based Lincoln Navigator in the 1998 model year, with The General transforming the GMC Yukon Denali into the Cadillac Escalade a year later. Today's Junkyard Gem is an early second-generation Navigator, found in a Denver-area car graveyard. The second-generation Navigator was built for the 2003 through 2006 model years. It didn't look much different from its predecessor, but it (and its Expedition sibling) had a brand-new independent rear suspension that gave it a lower rear floor and a somewhat less truck-ish ride. This generation of Navigator was the first luxury SUV to offer powered retractable running boards. This truck, being a top-trim-level Ultimate, has them. With an MSRP of $56,140 (about $93,069 in 2023 dollars), the Navigator Ultimate 4x4 was the most expensive new production car or light truck offered by the Ford Motor company in the United States as a 2004 model. The introduction of the $149,995 Ford GT the following year stole that crown from the Navigator, of course. That's genuine walnut trim, not the phony wood that went into Malaise Era Lincolns. The dash layout was inspired by that of the 1961 Continental, according to Lincoln PR. Power came from a 5.4-liter DOHC V8 rated at 300 horsepower and 355 pound-feet. Curb weight approached three tons. This one looks to have been in good cosmetic condition when it got here. A quick VIN check shows that it was for sale at a Denver used-car joint a few months back, with just under 140,000 miles on the odometer and a price tag of $4,900 (which is about $3,104 in 2004 dollars, or a depreciation of nearly 95% in 19 years). Perhaps the engine or transmission failed soon after that, leading to this grim fate. That wood-and-leather steering wheel felt … just like a football? You could operate its power features in time to music, if you so chose. The 2004 Navigator was forced to share this commercial with the smaller Explorer-based Aviator.
2021 Cadillac Escalade vs. 2020 Lincoln Navigator | How they compare on paper
Wed, Feb 5 2020The 2021 Cadillac Escalade arrived late last night, and we all know what that means: It’s comparison time. Specifically, weÂ’re pitting the new Escalade versus the 2020 Lincoln Navigator. The sales gap between the long-time competitors has grown dangerously close for Cadillac ever since the revolutionary new Navigator came out for the 2018 model year. In 2019, the Navigator was only about 4,000 units down from the Escalade. Cadillac intends to widen that gap back up with a new truck, and now itÂ’s time to see if itÂ’s brought the right goods to the party. With the redesigned model that now features an independent rear suspension, these two are more alike than theyÂ’ve been in a long time. The Escalade was stuck with the less space-efficient solid rear end up until now, as GM hadnÂ’t yet made the switch to IRS that Ford long-ago did. Now that it has, these two are super similar from a dimensions perspective. Cadillac was playing catch-up in this fight, so it knew exactly where it needed to aim to come out victorious in a specs battle such as this one. A quick note on the chart below. Both of these models have a “regular” and “long” version. The EscaladeÂ’s long variant is still named ESV, and the NavigatorÂ’s long version is simply named L. In the dimensions section, we distinguish between the two with a “/” — the “regular” length version is on the left, and the “long” version is on the right side of the slash. The numbers are below: Powertrain The Lincoln Navigator still reigns supreme when it comes to power, as the 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 is high on both horsepower and torque. GMÂ’s small-block V8 comes close, but ultimately falls short by 30 horsepower and 50 pound-feet of torque to the twin-turbo V6. Cadillac does have an ace up its sleeve, though. It comes in the form of the 3.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-six engine. Lincoln hasnÂ’t dropped the PowerStroke diesel into the Navigator (and we'd be shocked if it does), so Cadillac has a unique offering in this segment now. The diesel will be optional on the Escalade, but it has less horsepower and the same amount of torque as the V8. We expect the big advantage for the diesel will come in fuel economy, an area where the Silverado Duramax diesel currently outpaces the full-size truck competition. Both of these big SUVs come standard with 10-speed automatic transmissions. Intriguingly, itÂ’s the 10-speed automatic that was co-developed between Ford and GM.
