WITH RARE TILT WHEEL OPTION Recent Cosmetic Restoration Car is locally advertised so in the event an offer is accepted, I reserve right to end auction early so do not wait to bid. Car is equipped with power everything including, windows, locks, seats, top, trunk lid and more... tilt wheel... I will be happy to answer any questions. Just email them. I also encourage the prospective buyers to view the car first if possible? Or have someone look at it for you. This car is in Fantastic Condition for its age. No rust on car. Has always been stored indoors. FIRST TIME BEING OFFERED FOR SALE SINCE 1975. 2 OWNER CAR! Drives like you are on a cloud and sounds awesome! Plenty of POWER in the 462 inch original motor. A LOT! Of $ was just invested in this super cool ride to get it freshened up. Following is a detailed description of the car and items done to it in the past few months. Interior: We just had ALL windows on the car completely professionally serviced by a LINCOLN SPECIALIST and they work great from ALL switches. (SEE YOUTUBE VIDEO link below) 1. All window regulators were cleaned/ lubricated. 2. Windows were All adjusted. 3. Switches were ALL cleaned and or replaced. ORIGINAL Seats are in Very good condition front and rear. Leather is soft and nice patina! (you can tell car has been kept indoors due to the nice surviving condition of seats etc.) Door panels are in good shape Dashboard is in good shape. minor crack at typical speaker cover in center by windshield. Carpet is good. Some fading and two small 3 inch spots in rear under floor mats have been repaired but are small and hidden under floor mats. Basically interior on car is in very good condition and needs near nothing. I only say “near” because it is a 40+ year old car and is not new. Exterior: The paint on the car is in good shape. The car was re-painted in its original VERY RARE (Charcoal Frost Metallic) Code S. Plenty of clear coat on the car to shine. Buyer should expect some minor flaws in the metallic paint here and there along with some minor dings here and there from storage but nothing major. Car was professionally wet sanded and polished this week to bring out the deep shine. I would rate the paint as a good driver+ condition. Shines great and looks amazing with the new white top and the red interior. Very Rare color combo for this convertible. Car has no rust on it and underneath is very dry and solid. Floors are great. (See Photos) No issues at all. Note : For the new Owner, there is a small amount of the original paint color used on the car that will come with it in case anything needs touched up in the future on the car. Chrome on Front and Rear Bumpers is in good shape. Rated at driver quality. Nice shine, no rust but not perfect. Door handle chrome is good. minor pits/hazing All Stainless trim on car is in very nice shape Engine: Original V8 462 CU This car starts up easily and runs very strong. Motor sounds great and has plenty of power. Transmission shifts smoothly into all gears and floats down the road. Power steering works great. Can steer car with one finger. A pleasure to drive! Engine bay is VERY clean and well kept/ detailed. (see photos) Note: This car has been driven ONLY about 25 miles since being removed from private collection. Drives like a dream with no known issues other than constant THUMBS up from on lookers but should REALLY be looked at by your mechanic before taking on any long trips. Check belts, hoses, etc to be safe. Tires are good with 80 tread left. CONVERTIBLE TOP: PERHAPS MOST IMPORTANT WHEN IT COMES TO BUYING ONE OF THESE LINCOLNS....THE TOP!!!! SEE TOP IN WORKING ACTION on YOUTUBE... type in search window " 1966 charcoal frost lincoln top working" VERY VERY Important item on one of these cars is the hydraulic top functions. This car has just been fully serviced for its Top Functions. EVERYTHING was gone thru including EVERY Relay, ALL pumps, EVERY LIMIT SWITCH etc. at a cost of over $5000 which did include the power window servicing as well. Any one that knows these cars, knows that it is VITAL to buy one already serviced for its top. They are not cheap to have fully serviced but once this is complete they will work and last for another 40 years. This service was just completed last week. After that we took it to have a brand new original style pin point vinyl top installed which was an additional $2200 from upholstery shop. Everything operates just as it did from the factory. Top can be raised and lowered with ease FROM INSIDE THE CAR OR OUTSIDE BY GAS TANK SWITCH, and it is quite the site to see!!! see video at You Tube NOTE: IF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE LINCOLNS OF THIS ERA, THEY HAD A KEYED SWITCH BY GAS TANK TO OPEN TRUNK.

Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.
Lincoln Corsair's grille is growing in spy photos
Tue, Jul 19 2022We've recently seen the refreshed Ford Escape in spy photos, and it appears its luxurious platform mate, the Lincoln Corsair, is getting a refresh, too. It's a significantly more modest restyle, with one exception: The Corsair is getting a bigger grille. Yes, like so many other makes and models, Lincoln is updating its little SUV with a big grille. The width and even the shape aren't that different than the current model. But it's taller, having been stretched downward into the front bumper. It may now have a thicker lower chrome bar like the Navigator. Besides the grille, the rest of the Corsair looks nearly unchanged. Even the headlights look the same as the current model. The rear is also the same. Photos don't show the interior, but expect that to be generally the same, too, possibly with a larger infotainment screen. With how mild this refresh is, we expect it will be revealed this year as a 2023 model. The Corsair should retain its full range of powertrains including the standard turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder, optional turbo 2.3-liter four-cylinder, and plug-in hybrid 2.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder.

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
