Classic and cool 1963 Convertible Lincoln Continental This car has been well care for mechanically and I have owned it since 2007. It came from Arizona (see pic of plate in photos) and I owned it in CA and CO. It has some surface rust on the bumper, wheels and a few small spots of surface rust, but no major rust issues on the car. The body is straight. I did not have any bodywork done but it does appear to have had a modest amount of bondo around the rear wheel well. The trim is in really good shape and appears complete. There are no tears in the interior, original leather, but the back panel of the passenger seat came off. The piece is still there and could easily be reattached. I doid not as I would have the seats restuffed. Front end was rebuilt just prior to my purchase and I had the front drum brakes converted to disc with a kit from Gearhead Engineering, it stops MUCH better with the front end discs. It has 16 inch smoothies but I do not have the center caps for them. I also do not have the original wheels, and they could not fit over the disc brake kit The top was replaced prior to my purchase and is in excellent shape with no tears. The rear window is a foggy but not damaged or cracked. Generally everything works except the radio, and the rear windows do not automatically roll down when the doors are open. The windows all go down from the switches but the rears are intended to go down when the rear doors are opened. The top works VERY well and was recently serviced. I tried to capture the flaws in the paint and scratches in the pics. The paint looks decent but it is old. The cars starts and runs like a champ, and I do drive it to coffee regularly. There is one stick spot in the gas pedal but it does not hamper driving. I love this car but two of my boys are now teenagers with four-wheel drives filling up my driveway and garage. Thanks and good luck.

Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.

Ellen DeGeneres sends up Matthew McConaughey's Lincoln ad

Mon, 29 Sep 2014

Lincoln had to have known that when it released its new ad campaign for the new MKC with Matthew McConaughey, it would open itself up to a bit of good old fashioned ridicule. The television commercial was, after all, good for a laugh or two. And true to their mission, talk show hosts haven't missed the opportunity to have a little fun at Lincoln's and McConaughey's expense.
Conan O'Brien was first to send up the television spot, but now Ellen DeGeneres has taken a stab at it too, superimposing herself in the back seat of the compact luxury crossover, downing some pot brownies and generally playing Costello to McConaughey's Abbott. It's worth a watch, if only to see Ellen getting down in her usual, offbeat style.
