Fantastic example of one of Lincoln’s best designs. Beautiful newer Summit Green paint with Taos Turquoise roof.
Gorgeous, authentically restored interior, combination of factory original and restored to factory specs.
High-quality rechrome on bumpers and most die cast trim. Some trim is still original and excellent.
This car is rust free from new, never wrecked, bondo’d, welded, etc. Paint in jambs is original and clean!
Still shows the factory glue from the weatherstrip installation in 1956.
Incredibly straight body; paint, body and chrome are in outstanding condition.
Mechanically excellent, newer radial wide whitewalls, runs perfect – quiet, strong and steady. Freshly rebuilt
Ed Strain Treadle-Vac power booster and master cylinder.
This is a drive-anywhere car. Meticulously maintained. Has been used on several long distance trips to shows, etc
and performs flawlessly on the highway. Fly in, drive home.
The car has two small mechanical mods, a supplemental electric fuel pump with a toggle switch (for priming after
storage only, car runs off of the stock mechanical pump), and a well-concealed electric cooling fan in front of the
radiator for parade use or extremely hot weather. The car does not have cooling problems, just installed as a
safety.
Power windows, antenna, seat, and radio work perfectly.
Dash cluster chrome, steering wheel and gauges are virtually like new, except the upper speedometer lens, which is
crazed from age but an entire perfect original replacement dash cluster including the lens is included with the
car.

Ford investing $5B in Lincoln
Lincoln poised to double MKZ Hybrid production
Thu, 18 Jul 2013The Lincoln MKZ Hybrid has been something of a hit for Ford since the beginning, exceeding the company's modest projected 15-percent take rate for more than two years (we say "modest" because that still means an overwhelming majority of Lincoln customers are passing up on the gas-electric powertrain even though it costs the same as the standard model). Either way, Lincoln builds 700 MKZ Hybrids at its plant in Mexico each month, but has sold 715 of them in each of the past three months. That's why, according to a report in The Detroit News, when the restyled 2014 MKZ Hybrid arrives (non-hybrid pictured), Ford is doubling production compared to 2013. Instead of the hybrid model being 20 percent of production, the new hybrid will make up 40 percent.
Ford is doing well with hybrids in general - its portion of the electrified vehicle segment jumping 12 points in a single year to 16 percent. Assuming Ford doesn't change the pricing strategy (along with the changes Ford is making to calibration to improve fuel economy), the sedan could continue to "[show] other luxury hybrids how it's done" when it goes on sale later this year.
J Mays retiring from Ford design, succeeded by Moray Callum
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Ford's highly influential head of design, J Mays, has announced that he'll be retiring from his position after 33 years in the industry, 16 of which were at the Dearborn, MI-based company. Upon departure, he'll be succeeded as group vice president of design by Moray Callum. If that last name sounds familiar, yes, he's the brother of Jaguar's Ian Callum.
It's difficult to explain just how big of a role Mays had on not just Ford's design over the years, but on the entire industry. Before heading to Dearborn, Mays worked for Audi, BMW and then Volkswagen, where he was involved in concept cars that paved the way for design icons like the first-generation Audi TT and the Volkswagen New Beetle. As for his Ford resume, it's extensive.
Mays joined the company in 1997 as design director for Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda, as well as the Premier Automotive Group (Volvo, Land Rover, Jaguar and Aston Martin). He was heavily involved in the Ford Fusion, Focus, Fiesta, Taurus, F-150 and Mustang, while also contributing to concept cars like the Atlas, Evos, 427, Forty-Nine, Shelby GR-1, Lincoln MKZ and the MKC.
