1961 Lincoln Continental, Suicide Doors, 61, Lincoln, Classic, White. on 2040-cars
La Mesa, California, United States
|
Here's all original 61 Lincoln Continental. The car runs and drives great, but it is a project and will need work.
Problem area's: The car does have rust in the typical locations on these cars, lower doglegs, underneath chrome trim, random spots, and on the trunk lid. Underbody is solid though. The interior needs to be reupholstered , mainly the dash, back seats, headliner and carpeting and lower edge of the door carpeting. There's chrome pitting, and the front lip above the grill needs to be repaired as somebody before me must of bondoed it thats why you cracking there in the pictures. There's a few dents here and there, but nothing serious, some scratches on the chrome trim, grill and bumpers, and small dents on the stainless mouldings. Power Door locks don't work because of a vacuum leak somewhere. Radio, HVAC does not work, I have the A/C compressor, hoses and the condenser is in storage. There's a lot of steering play, so the steering linkage will need to be rebuilt, including some suspension work. 2 of the power windows do work, the driver side and right rear passenger side. There's an exhaust leak at the exhaust manifold, and some engine blowby, oil leaks, but the car runs strong and idles smooth. Horns don't work, possibly a wiring issue, but I have them in storage as well. Tires are old. The Positives Carb was rebuilt several years ago, new upper control arm bushings, new front and rear shocks, new front brake shoe's and wheel cylinders. Cap and Rotor is good. Electronic ignition ( no points), good starter motor. The car originally came with a generator but was converted to an Alternator. Serviced transmission. The car brakes strong. I installed Cherry Bomb Glasspacks so the car has a nice throaty growl to it. I also have extra spare parts I'll pitch in. ( radiator expansion tanks, exterior quarter panel Continental script, window switches, original window washer bag with the Continental logo, Continental Script that glues onto the glove box, brand new U-Joint, and original owners manual). The Lincoln runs well, it does smell like fumes however because of the blowby, but everything is there and the car is in decent shape considering the flaws. |

Ford recalling 205k Edge and Lincoln MKX units for possible corrosion
Thu, 30 Oct 2014After the horrible weather last winter, it's hard to look forward for the season to return this year. For those readers in much of the country, the snow is going to be flying soon, and with it comes salt on the roads. That means Ford's regional recall for the 2007-2008 Edge and Lincoln MKX arrives at the perfect time because they are at risk for corrosion.
The campaign covers 204,448 examples of the models in 21 states, plus the District of Columbia and some provinces of Canada. In total there are 186,024 vehicles in need of repair in the US and 18,424 in Canada.
According to Ford, it's possible for the area, "under the reinforcement brackets where the fuel tank is mounted" to corrode. If this happens, there might be a gas smell in the vehicle or even a fuel leak could develop. In fact, the automaker reports that one fire could be related to the problem but no injuries or accidents are reported.

2015 Lincoln MKC priced from $33,995* [w/poll]
Mon, 16 Dec 2013Looking to build on the momentum it struggled to establish with the MKZ, Lincoln recently unveiled the production version of its all-new MKC last month at the LA Auto Show. With a proven platform shared with the Ford Escape and striking design, the 2015 Lincoln MKC goes on sale next summer ready to take on the ever-expanding world of luxury compact crossovers. Breaking into this new segment, Lincoln has priced the MKC aggressively as one of the least-expensive offerings in its class, starting at $33,995 (*including destination charges).
At that price, the 2015 MKC costs a little bit more than a fully loaded 2014 Ford Escape Titanium and is just slightly less costly than the Acura RDX and Volvo XC60. More importantly, it's thousands less than Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes GLK-Class. The MKC will be offered in three trim levels for now - there is still no more information about Lincoln's new Black Label products - ranging from the base Premiere up to the range-topping Reserve.
The Premiere will come standard with features like active grille shutters, push-button start, remote start, dual-zone climate control and heated front seats, while the midgrade Select starts at $37,225 and adds upgraded 18-inch wheels, ambient lighting, daytime running lights and a steering wheel featuring Wollsdorf leather. The top-shelf Reserve trim level starts at $40,930 and brings even more luxury features including the panoramic roof, navigation, cooled front seats and wifi access.
