Clean for it age.  Very little rust! Runs and drives great engine is strong and has a new carburetor on it.  instrument panel is INOP however I have installed all aftermarket gauges you need for it. It is missing the fender skirts and could probably use a set of tires.  Mechanically a great car would be a great choice to start a restore.  Awesome road trip car.  I was told this car was in the move "Iowa" but I have no proof that it is the exact car that was on set.  I have driven this car a lot since doing all the mechanical work to get it back to road worth condition.  It is a really fun car that can seat six full sized adults very comfortably.  I do not want to see this car just be used in a demolition derby which is what a lot of people want if for it is in too good of shape for that.  With minor work it could be a really great classic car.  It has a 460 with a 4 barrel carb on it pushing a C6 transmission.  No over drive but this car cruises great at 65 MPH.  The A/C works and blows cold and it never has any over heating problems.

One more Lincoln MKX concept teaser drops before Beijing

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

If the teaser video for Lincoln's launch of a new concept at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show wasn't enough for you, the company has now released a shadowy new image on its Twitter page. The vehicle may be a concept for the next-generation MKX, and its launch in China is part of the huge rollout to sell the brand's models there.
The latest photo shows off the concept's lighting, including LED running lights and lit sideview mirrors. The sharp edges of the lights give some hints to its shape. However, Other than clearly being a crossover, not much else is known.
The concept's launch supports Lincoln breaking into the Chinese market. It will begin selling the MKZ and MKC there this fall, as well as a midsize luxury SUV. A fullsize luxury sedan and the Navigator will come later. The company will also build luxury showrooms for the models that will look more like high-end hotel lobbies than car dealers. Scroll down to watch the teaser video.

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks

Sun, 31 Mar 2013

Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.
