I am offering one of my four personal Lincoln Mark III's for sale. It is very difficult to chose which one to sell as I love each one of them for slightly different reasons which have nothing to do with condition, as each one is truly exceptional, but relates to my personal attachment to each. Being a car person my entire life, it becomes all too easy to collect up more than you have room to physically accommodate and so I find myself trying to cut back a sniff as I have recently accumulated a few vintage 4WD's. This particular Mark, which I refer to as "Roy", was originally owned by the Lincoln Dealer who ordered it new and kept it until his death when it then passed to his son. I searched the entire country, and I mean every single state, when I was buying these cars up and chose this one because of it's history and exceptional condition inside, outside, and mechanically. This car could easily be driven cross country and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere I had gas money to go as it needs nothing. If time had permitted I would have flown to Washington and driven him home as I find myself looking for reasons to drive anywhere in one and always wish for a few more miles before getting home. I have personally driven it over 5000 miles since owning and that includes both summer and winter driving. Every last option on this car functions factory new from the electric antenna to the hide-away headlights, which will stay closed indefinitely and that is rare. The Automatic Temperature Control knows exactly when to change from A/C to Heat and the optional Rear Window Defogger works perfectly. The Factory Cruise Control sets and holds the speed perfectly and the with the tilt wheel and 6 way power seats(driver and passenger), you can cruise down the road in extreme comfort. The steering is tight and responsive and the brakes stop perfectly so driving this baby is a dream. The only items that do not work are the two small rear quarter windows. As seen in the pictures, I have changed out the original 15 inch steel wheels and hubcaps for a slightly different look but will be including the original wheels/hubcaps with the sale. The trunk and engine compartment are both in the same exceptional condition as the entire car and the spare tire is brand new. The interior presents as nearly new and there are no rips or tears anywhere to be found. The rear seat has rarely seen a butt and every ash tray is virgin. The original Calvary Twill vinyl roof is just about perfect and like most of these with original roofs still in place, it adds a formal look that no other can compare. These Lincoln Mark III's were absolutely one of the finest cars ever engineered/built by any auto maker and owning/driving them is one of life's greatest pleasures in a car. While these beautiful cars came in a wide range of colors, it is very hard to find any color with more class than White with Black. Take a look at the many pictures and feel free to call david @ 931.639.3926 with any specific questions you may have. Fly in and Drive home. This car is represented honestly/accurately as it sits this moment but there is no warranty or guarantee expressed or implied.

Lincoln putting perfume on its sales
Mon, 18 Aug 2014Lincoln has a scent. But unlike those from Mustang, Lamborghini or even Shark by Tara, you can't buy it and you have to visit a Lincoln dealership to inhale its notes of jasmine hedione, mate tea leaves and tonka beans. Essence of Lincoln - that's what it's called - is being piped through the ventilation systems at some showrooms to help "create an emotional connection between the luxury brand and its customers," and olfactorily promote the idea of "luxury and warmth." Where it's not run through the ducts, visitors can sample it on scent cards.
Master perfumer Rene Morgenthaler worked with aroma house SensoryMax to design Essence of Lincoln. Also including traces of Earl Grey bergamot and green tea, whenever you encounter it you're meant to enjoy "a feeling of belonging to an exclusive, forward-thinking group that values style and success." And then buy an MKC. There's a press release below with details and an image to explain more, if you're still having a little trouble smelling the orange blossoms.
Ellen DeGeneres sends up Matthew McConaughey's Lincoln ad
Mon, 29 Sep 2014Lincoln 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.
2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven
Wed, Feb 8 2023POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods. However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows. Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS. Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence. Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.
