Morris, Illinois, United States
1970 Lincoln Mark III 37,500 Original miles, purchased from the original owner!
This is not a show car!! This is a really nice cruiser/driver!!
Car runs and drives great, cruises down the highway at 80 mph like a new car!
Mostly original paint, the sides appear to have been painted but it is a good job and matches the rest of the car very well. No evidence of rust is visible. Could use a good buff/wax job. All the glass is in excellent condition and the all of the power windows work. The chrome is in nice driver condition with some pitting here and there. Overall pepper pitting on most everything. The vinyl top is in good condition with a few small "crispy" areas around the back window. The interior is all original leather, not ripped or worn but the seats are dry and hard. Could benefit from a good application of leather conditioner. The dash and gauges are in beautiful condition and are in good working order The 460 CID engine runs great with no issues. Factory rated 360 HP It has plenty of power and runs smooth with no noises. Its 10:50 to 1 compression so it needs good 93 octane gas It has had new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, points, starter, alternator, belts and hoses and NEW RH exhaust manifold recently installed. All of the power accessories work, including the original AM FM radio. NEEDS: Tires are old, dry rotted and should be replaced if the car is driven far.
The vacuum headlights sag when the car is not running but close as soon as it is started The turn signal stalk is loose and the turn signal sometimes will randomly come on
This will make someone a nice cruiser for this summer!! Drive it home!!
Please ask any and all questions. Send e bay messages or call Marvin at 815 521 9566
The car is located about 45 mins South of Chicago.

Lincoln MKC prototype caught partially covered, reveals some changes
Tue, 14 May 2013When Lincoln pulled the wraps off the MKC Concept at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year, we said that the very attractive concept was going to closely mirror the production vehicle. With few exceptions, a clad prototype recently caught running on public roads seems to substantiate our statement.
From what the pictures reveal, the disguised Lincoln MKC production mule and show concept seem to share the same waistline with identical sculpting over the wheels. The midsection of the two also appear to match with the same flare and styling. The lower rockers have been cleaned up a bit, mainly to be more practical in the real world (the deep chisels on the show car would have collected mud and snow).
Taking a look at the exposed front bumper, we see a very similar lower fascia complete wtih the metal skid plate on the chin. The window profile also seems to match the concept, though we're still unclear exactly how that C- and D-pillar section is going to look. Of course, and it always seems to be the case when concepts evolve into production vehicles, the MKC gains four normal door handles, standard-sized mirrors and a slightly smaller wheel/tire package. We expect the production version of the Lincoln MKC to debut later this year.
Why the 2015 Lincoln MKC is 'holding some powder'
Thu, 19 Jun 2014Earlier this month in our first drive of the 2015 MKC, we told you that Lincoln finally had a new vehicle in its arsenal worth crowing about. So with the compact premium crossover now finding its way into dealers, why aren't you seeing its likeness plastered on billboards and barraging you on television? It's because Lincoln is "holding some powder."
Those are the words of Lincoln's global director, Matt VanDyke, who tells Autoblog that the company is holstering some of its marketing guns because it's keen to avoid repeating the ill-timed efforts that blighted its last rollout, the MKZ. That vehicle's launch early last year was beset by various delays related to manufacturing and quality. The cadence issue was so dire that by the time the model reached showrooms in volume, Lincoln had already blown most of its budget on things like Super Bowl ads that ran weeks or even months before customers could check one out in person. It was a particularly trying series of events for parent Ford because the MKZ and its oversized marketing spend were charged with relaunching the Lincoln brand to the public.
Keen to avoid repeating the same timing issue and mindful of consumers' habits at this time of year, Lincoln is taking a different strategy with the MKC. According to VanDyke, "What we don't want to do is try and fight the summertime - people using television being down, and other mass media when school's out. New television shows aren't on." Of course, that doesn't mean Lincoln is sitting idle. VanDyke says, "By no means are we quiet during the next 90 days. This year, we're going to really spend the next 60 to 90 days using digital and social media, in-theater advertising and the like, and once we have full availability at dealerships, we'll really ramp up the advertising later on in the summer." Part of that early media effort includes immersive digital marketing like Lincoln's clever Dream Rides web experience.
2015 Lincoln Navigator puts on a brave face, offers EcoBoost V6 only
Thu, 23 Jan 2014
Lincoln has finally given its SUV a facelift after seven long years.
Seven years is a long time. For the auto industry, though, seven years is an absolute eternity. Most vehicles receive clean-sheet redesigns within the span of seven years, usually getting a facelift of some sort after year three or four. Not Lincoln.
