Up for sale is my personal 1979 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL 4 DOOR COLLECTOR SERIES. The exterior is dark blue and the interior is dark blue leather. Drivetrain is a 6.6 400ci V8 with a C6 transmission. Luxuries include, power steering, power brakes, tilt wheel, air conditioning, power windows, power locks, dual power seats, cruise control, AM/FM 8 track, Cartier clock, Collector Series equipment which includes, color coded turbine wheels, gold emblems, grill,and stripes, port hole delete in the top, matching trunk carpet and complete tool kit. 

I have recently gone through this whole car mechanically and have done, air filter and breather, oil and filter change, sparkplugs, cap, rotor, pcv, front and rear brakes, new headlight switch and headlight door actuator, brand new power antenna assembly. Inside I replaced and repaired the door lock actuators, left rear power window motor and track, replaced the fuel guage. I have installed a new Interstate battery last year with a battery store cutoff. I have just installed a new correct radiator. I have installed a new vinyl top and have detalied the car from top to bottom. It runs and drives like when it was brand new. I have the original owners manual and build sheet as I purchased it from the original owner. My best friend was the original owners aunt, I know this car since new.

The body is really nice but does have a few rust bubbles mostly above the tail lights. It has a rust hole in the right rear lower quarter panel, and a few in the door jambs. The body was painted in the early 90s. The paint is really nice and shines beautifully but it is not show quality and has a few blemishes. The hood has acid rain stains but is really only noticeable in the garage under the flourescent lamps. All the trim is really nice. The interior is like new and I have purchased and installed the original floor mats since the picture was taken.  The woodgrain on the steering wheel is a little faded. I replaced the rear package tray with new correct fabric. Underneath is all original and soild, normal surface rust but no holes anywhere. Has the normal oil sweating from sitting around, but nothing major. Also the muffler was just replaced. The air conditioning compressor needs a front seal as it leaks freon, it has been converted to 194A, it blows ICE COLD for the season but needs to be charged every year. 

Overall this is a beautiful driver quality car that gets lots of looks at the car shows and cruise nights. This car is nice enough to take anywhere, but not have to worry about enjoying it. I drive this car often when the weather allows, and is always garage kept. I purchased a car cover to keep the dust off while in the garage, it has a few tears from the car being so big, but will include it in the sale, along with a few 8 track tapes I have for it. I change the oil once a year, and have a bunch of extra filters I will include also.

I have tried to describe this car the best as I remember sitting here typing this.  Car is able to be viewed and driven if desired. I am selling it because i just purchased a new GMC truck, and would like to keep it in the garage. Please dont waste my time, I wont waste yours. Please ask all questions before bidding. Check my feedbacks and bid with confidence. Buyer is responsible for shipping charges, but will help anyway possible to make transaction go smoothly.. Thanks for looking and good luck.

Editors' Picks January 2022 | Ford Maverick, Jeep Grand Cherokee and more

Wed, Feb 9 2022

This month, we awarded Editors' Pick awards to a number of totally redesigned, new models. Most notable of the bunch is the 2022 Ford Maverick. Ford took a chance on a new segment, and its execution is as close to perfect as we could hope for. The Hyundai Santa Cruz is a worthy competitor, though, and was also named an Editors' Pick. Also in this list, we have the redesigned Jeep Grand Cherokee. It's an excellent SUV, and it's only going to get better when the plug-in hybrid 4xe model hits the roads. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in January that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Quick take: Jeep's midsize SUV hits it out of the park with the latest generation. We could stand to see some powertrain innovation, but the Grand Cherokee's premium proposition is sound. Score: 8.0 What it competes with: Honda Passport, Hyundai Santa Fe, Ford Edge, Chevrolet Blazer, Nissan Murano Pros: Highly capable, luxurious interior, choices aplenty Cons: Pricey, fuel economy From the editors Associate Editor, Byron Hurd — "Jeep did almost everything right with the redesigned Grand Cherokee. Its powertrain offerings are fairly unremarkable, but the new two-row 4xe will go a long way toward addressing that. It's an otherwise fantastic, modern, luxurious Jeep SUV." In-depth analysis: 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee First Drive Review | 1 fewer row, 1 more touchscreen   2022 Ford Maverick Quick take: The Ford Maverick offers tremendous value, efficiency, incredibly well-thought-out packaging, plenty of storage, a fairly engaging drive and ease of use, all with the utility of a pickup bed. We like the hybrid, but the EcoBoost engine and FX4 package offer more capability. Score: 8 What it competes with: Hyundai Santa Cruz Pros: Very affordable, Hybrid fuel economy, compact size Cons: Tight backseat, FWD only Hybrid, no cruise control in base trim From the editors: Green, Senior Editor John Beltz Snyder — "The Maverick is simply a dynamite package. It's smart, useful, drivable, efficient, providing affordable utility in the underserved compact pickup segment.

Sunday Drive: Big debuts from the Big Apple dominated the headlines

Sun, Apr 1 2018

New York Auto Show week has come and gone, and, not surprisingly, the week's biggest bits of news came from the halls of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in NYC. Our favorite debut from New York was the Lincoln Aviator, a sharp-dresses crossover that looks lovely inside and out, and sits on underpinnings at least partly derived from the Ford Mustang. While the Aviator may have caught our attention, it wasn't the most popular vehicle debut from New York, at least when judging by the number of page views here on Autoblog. That distinction goes to the 2019 Toyota RAV4, and we're hardly surprised. The RAV4 is the most popular compact crossover in America (in fact it's the most popular vehicle that isn't a pickup truck), and the 2019 version looks like a radical departure from the model that came before. We can't wait to drive the thing. Midsize sedans may not be the darling of the family car set, that honor taken over by the aforementioned crossover, but they still sell in large enough numbers that a brand-new model catches our attention. Such is the case with the 2019 Nissan Altima. We broke down the specs of the Altima and compared Nissan's bread-and-butter sedan with its biggest rivals. And finally, we got some official figures for the 2019 Ford Mustang Bullitt. It'll cost a cool $12,000 over the cost of a Mustang GT, and will benefit from a 480-horsepower, 420-pound-foot version of Ford's excellent 5.0-liter V8 engine. As always, stay tuned this week for all the latest automotive news that's fit to print. 2018 New York Auto Show Mega Photo Gallery | Start spreading the news 2019 Toyota RAV4 actually looks pretty cool 2019 Nissan Altima vs Honda Accord vs Toyota Camry: How they compare 2019 Mustang Bullitt orders open as Ford reveals price and horsepower Image Credit: Drew Angerer/Getty New York Auto Show Ford Lincoln Nissan Toyota Coupe Crossover SUV Sedan 2018 new york auto show
