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.

Did Neil Young just spill the beans on a 2016 Lincoln Continental? [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Neil Young may be better known as a singer-songwriter and rock n' roll icon than he is for his involvement with cars, but the Canadian-born musician is not without his automotive credentials. His latest book, after all, is titled "Special Deluxe: A Memoir of Life & Cars," and one of his most famous songs, "Long May You Run," was written about his old station wagon. But does that mean he's got an inside line on new cars coming out? In an appearance on CNBC's Mad Money with Matt Cramer this week, the Y in CSNY was plugging Pono, a portable music player and service he developed. During the segment, which you can watch in the video clip below, Young mentioned that his company was working on a new in-car audio integration with Harman, which as we know just signed a deal with Lincoln. Here's where it gets interesting: The Godfather of Grunge mentioned that Pono and Harman were preparing to put the system in the 2016 Lincoln Continental. The thing is, Lincoln hasn't made a Continental for a dozen years now. Does Neil know something we don't, or did he simply misspeak? He is, after all, working on an electric-converted '59 Continental he calls the LincVolt, so it wouldn't be hard to imagine he got mixed up. But maybe, just maybe, it was the first bit of leaked info that Ford's luxury division is planning on shifting away from its MK-based naming scheme and reviving at least one iconic nameplate.

Five vehicles named Top Safety Pick+ including new Civic, MKZ
Fri, 08 Mar 2013In an attempt to help push vehicle safety to a higher level, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety created a stricter Top Safety Pick+ rating last year, which incorporates a brutal small overlap test and requires cars to get Good ratings in four out of the five categories (and no less than Acceptable in the fifth). Joining the list of the safest cars of 2013, the 2013 Volvo XC60, Lincoln MKZ, Honda Civic (sedan and coupe) and the 2014 Mazda6 have all received the coveted TSP+ rating.
The Mazda6 and Lincoln MKZ have both been completely redesigned, and both received Acceptable ratings in the small overlap test. The Honda Civic, coming off its emergency refresh for 2013, is the first small car to be subjected to the small overlap test, and IIHS says that one of the car's many upgrades includes a stiffer front structure allowing it to receive Good ratings in all categories. Similarly, the XC60 gets all Good ratings thanks to, according to IIHS, Volvo updating the airbag software allowing the side airbags to inflate during the small overlap test.
The 2014 Subaru Forester has not yet been subjected to the small overlap test, so it must make do with just a Top Safety Pick rating until the IIHS tests small utility vehicles, which is expected to happen later in the spring.
Production 2017 Lincoln Continental arrives with 400-hp V6
Tue, Jan 12 2016Lincoln still isn't saying much about its new flagship, the long-awaited Continental. Instead, it's got to get everyone's attention. The brand that's been threatening to get a genuine luxury game going for years probably wants people to sit inside the fullsize sedan to learn what it's got, and we think that's a great idea. One good bit we know is that the new Continental is powered by a 3.0-liter, twin-turbo V6 with "a projected" 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque. We also know the marketing folks have the luxury-speak down, with lavish promises of heated, cooled, and massaging Perfect Position 30-way seats that adjust to shape and weight, as well as climate-controlled seats for rear passengers that also recline, and "generous rear legroom." Themed interior appointments come in Chalet, Thoroughbred, and Rhapsody selections, perceived-quality boosted further by a specific number of stitches-per-inch on the leather, a laser-cut door on the instrument panel, and real wood and aluminum trim. Acoustic laminated glass, active noise control, and available Revel audio are meant to insure serenity. Technology points are scored with optional adaptive steering and all-wheel drive, three drive modes, dynamic torque vectoring, surround-view cameras, adaptive cruise control, and pre-collision braking. We will really begin to know the new Continental when we sit in it later today at the Detroit Auto Show, for now there's the press release below. All-New Lincoln Continental Delivers Quiet Luxury: Elegant, Effortlessly Powerful, Serene - Lincoln Motor Company introduces its elegant new flagship – the all-new Continental – coming this fall - Effortless power comes from new 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine that produces a projected 400 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. of torque1; advanced safety technology is also featured - Serene interior offers the comfort of Lincoln's innovative Perfect Position Seat, spaciousness, rear seat amenities, Revel® audio system and top-grade materials DETROIT, Jan. 12, 2016 – Lincoln Motor Company heralds the return of its flagship – the all-new Lincoln Continental – an elegant, effortlessly powerful, serene full-size sedan that delivers quiet luxury to the industry's most discerning customers.
