Simi Valley, California, United States
|
Up for sale and your consideration is this beautiful Lincoln Continental Convertible which was completely restored 3 years ago. It has less than 1,000 miles put on car since this rebuild. It has been stored in the garage the whole time except for the occasional cruise/ thrill ride around the town with the family. Lot's of ooh's and ahh's when in this car. It turns lots of heads everytime it goes out. There may be some that look like this, but they don't compare. You are welcome to come see it for yourself in Simi Valley, California.
This car has it's original 430 mel motor, completely rebuilt all new and it's transmission was also completely rebuilt. The 430 mel motor is the factory motor before the 460 came out in 1969. Great running, great power motor and always very reliable. The wheels package are custom one off wheels from Mob Steel made by MHT. The wheels are 22" and fit bad ass in the wheel wells. Falken tires, fronts are 265/30/22 and rears are 295/25/22. Brand new condition. CPP 13" front disk brakes and 12" rear disk brakes with drilled and slotted rotors. 4 link rear end control by Air Ride Suspension. Alpine stereo with 2 amps, 2- 12 inch woofers and 2 -10 woofers, sounds AMAZING!! Two new batteries also. Car is Triple Black with a brand new Phantom black top, new black carpet, new custom door panels, white and black. Custom leather seats that match the door panels. Looks beautiful!! New exhaust,
2-1/2 pipes with flow master 3 chamber mufflers at the rear of car so the ride is quiet inside and next to or behind the car it sounds really aggresive. The car was painted 3 1/2 years ago and constantly garaged. It does need some minor touches to car since being stored in the garage and kids in and out of the garage. Minor, nothing major at all. Before this car was restored, there was a little spot of rust in the right rear floor panel which was patched in and repaired. You'd never know it if I didn't tell you. That was the extent of any rust, but it was all done right.
The body
and frame were perfect, it had never been smashed or in an accident of any kind. I want to be upfront about anything so there are no surprises. On the driver side passenger door, there is a small ding from the kids bicycle. Also, the rear bumper left side has a scrape/ scratch on it. See pics. If any pictures of anything are required, please contact me. This car is for sale locally in Simi Valley so I reserve the right to cancel auction at any time if it sells outside of ebay. Do not ask me to end auction early. This car will sell whether local or here on ebay. Reserve is set well below what I have into this phenomenal car. I am an honest person and expect the same in return. Thank you for looking and happy bidding.

LA Auto Show recap
Lincoln says MKZ supply crisis over
Mon, 25 Mar 2013After an excessive number of recalls on the 2013 Escape and Fusion, we can't really fault Ford for being a little extra cautious with the launch of the 2013 Lincoln MKZ. Last month, we reported that dealer supply of the car was extremely limited due to more attention being paid to quality checks of cars rolling off the assembly line, which led to a 73-percent drop in MKZ sales from last year on top of a 32-year low in monthly sales for Lincoln in January.
The reason for the delay was that the sedans were being shipped from the Hermosillo, Mexico assembly plant to be inspected even closer at Ford's Flat Rock, Michigan plant before they were able to head to dealers. Things seem to be straightening out for Lincoln and the MKZ's production now, as Automotive News is reporting that supply should be up to a "normal level" by the end of this month.
Lincoln to resurrect old nameplates for China?
Wed, 04 Dec 2013Judging by the success that many luxury automakers are currently experiencing in China, it's no surprise that Lincoln plans to take advantage of the situation by peddling its wares across the Pacific. Lincoln will open its first Chinese dealership next year, but potential buyers there won't be mucking through the same alphabet soup of car names found in American showrooms. USA Today reports that Ford's luxury car division could revert back to legacy names (like Continental and Zephyr) in China while keeping the MK_ names here in North America.
In speaking to Ford exec Jim Farley during the LA Auto Show, USA Today says that Lincoln could switch its naming structure as models are refreshed. Farley didn't confirm that the naming revamp would be a China-only decision, but article leaves little hope that American buyers will get to see the return of classic names anytime soon.
Why would Ford rehash old Lincoln names for China only? Buyers there seem to have a better historical associations with the nameplates than in the US. Chinese also still hold Lincoln in high regard, associating the marque with use by prominent government officials.
