No Reserve Auction. If you have less than 25 feedback please do not bid unless you contact us by phone first. Bid only if you intend to pay for the car should you be the high bidder. PLEASE READ THE TOTAL DESCRIPTION This auction is for a 1966 Lincoln Continental Suicide 4 Door Convertible. This is a project car but very worthy of being done. The prior owner had the car for many years. He took it off the road in the early 1990's to do a complete restoration. The motor and transmission were removed to be redone. Somewhere along the line the transmission went missing so everything was put on hold. We do have most of the 462 motor. The block was hot tanked, cleaned and new freeze plugs installed. We have the crank, pistons, cam shaft, both heads, some of the valves and springs, intake and carb, oil pan, starter, power steering unit, etc. I did not see the valve covers. No transmission but we do have the drive shaft. No radiator. The interior in the car is in real decent shape. Dash is amazing, seats are not beat up, just typical light leather cracking. Door panels are in great shape, visors are nice. Even the carpets are decent, just need a good shampooing to get the musty smell out. The convertible top is intact but has shrunk from age and will need to be replaced. The car came optioned with Power Steering, Power Front Disc Brakes, Tilt Steering Wheel, Power Seat, Power Windows and Power Convertible Top. All the glass is good with the exception of the front windshield which is cracked. The dual exhaust system looks to be in good solid shape also. The body on the car is fairly respectable. Real straight down both sides, doors open and close great, there is some minor rust on the bottom of both front fenders behind the rocker moldings, couple of small spots on the nose, a little behind the rear doors and both lower rear quarters at the very bottoms. Looks like a fairly easy fix. The underside of the car is very solid. Floors, Rockers, frame, braces and trunk pan are all good and solid. Rear opening deck lid and deck flap are solid. Over all, a good basic structure to work with. Make it original ,resto mod ,or make it your own.The motor and all parts are included if you want them. They would all fit in the trunk for shipping. There are a lot of sedans and other big Ford donor vehicles to be had reasonable if you want to go with a different drive line. We have the last Maine registration and proper dealer transfer forms for a smooth transaction. Car can be stored for a reasonable amount of time if you need to make shipping arrangements but car needs to be paid for within 3 days of auctions end. Selling at no reserve so please be serious in your bidding. If you need more info or pics feel free to email or call us at 1-207-324-5568 Days or 1-207-432-2862 Eves and Sundays. |

Would a Mustang-based Lincoln look like this?
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Designer Josiah LaCalla has taken a stab at what a Ford Mustang-based Lincoln model might look like with the Continental Mark X1 concept. Make no mistake, Ford's luxury arm has made it abundantly clear that it won't be pursuing any new products outside of volume models, which means a flashy halo grand tourer like the one you see here isn't in the cards. LaColla used the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG as a basis for his creation, which explains the long nose, but we certainly don't mind the idea of a rear-wheel drive Lincoln with a cabin pushed to the aft.
While we're dreaming, there's certainly nothing stopping us from imagining what's under that lengthy hood. We like the idea of the 5.8-liter supercharged V8 from the Shelby GT500 pushing the Mark X1 down the road, but how about something a little more inventive? Something like a high-revving, buttery V12 with enough torque to push the contraption well past 200 miles per hour. Dream a little dream, people.
Ford's cars being held up in Chinese ports in trade tensions with U.S.
Wed, May 9 2018BEIJING — Ford Motor Co's imported vehicles are being held up at Chinese ports, three people with knowledge of the matter told Reuters, underscoring how U.S. goods are facing increased customs scrutiny in China amid a tense trade standoff. The three people said Ford and Lincoln vehicles were facing unusual delays at customs, with officials asking for extra technical checks. Two of the people said U.S.-made models of some German carmakers, mainly SUVs, being brought into China, were also affected. Ford was being asked to do extra checks on emission components, said a China-based Ford executive familiar with the matter, asking not be named because of the sensitivity of the issue. China's customs agency did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The holdups add to a growing list of American products facing issues at China's borders, as officials try to avert a full-blown trade war. Some trade experts said they believe Beijing is sending a defiant warning to Washington in response to sweeping U.S. trade demands made on China last week. Reuters reported Tuesday that China had ramped up inspections of pork shipped from the United States, after the country's customs agency said it would step up quarantine checks on American apples and logs. The second person, a China-based industry official with knowledge of the matter, said the delays for Ford — as well as some U.S.-made cars from BMW and Mercedes-Benz — had been going on for the last two weeks. "Customs pretends there are technical non-conformities of some nature that won't allow them to clear these U.S.-made cars through customs, but the U.S.-China trade frictions must be the background to this," he said. "Although no one will officially admit it." Responding to a request for comment from Reuters, a BMW spokesman said that "U.S.-made BMW cars have not been delayed at the ports as of last week and before." A Daimler spokeswoman said it was "monitoring the situation closely" regarding ongoing trade talks between China and the United States, but that she could not speculate further on other matters. The third person said the Ford issue, which had been noted by the United States government, and other holdups facing American goods, were clearly related to the trade dispute. A Ford spokeswoman in Shanghai when asked about the matter said: "We are closely monitoring our situation at the port." She declined to comment further.
Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment
Thu, 20 Mar 2014One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.
