1966 Lincoln Continental Coupe A two-door version was launched in 1966, the first two-door Lincoln since 1960, and the MEL engine was expanded from 430 to 462 cubic inches (7.0 to 7.6 L). The car was given all-new exterior sheet metal and a new interior. Parking lights and front turn signals went back into the front bumper, and taillights set in the rear bumper for the first time. The length was increased by 5 inches (130 mm) to 220.9 in (5,610 mm), the width by an 1-inch (25 mm) to 79.7 in (2,020 mm), and the height by almost 1-inch (25 mm) to 55.0 in (1,400 mm) (on the sedan). Curved side glass returned. Heres a nice 1966 Continental Coupe Driver. it's getting tough to find one of these, let alone one this nice that is reliable enough to drive. Nice enough to drive and be proud without the hassle of worrying to put the first scratch on it when you lean on it! It has a new set of Coker Wide White wall tires, new Coker 15" chrome baby moon wheels & new duel exhaust that has been tucked up close to the chassis so it is ready for airide or to be lowered if you would like to put it in the weeds. It has a 462ci v8 with an automatic transmission. It runs and drives nice. the odometer reads 41,000. i am assuming that is not accurate. the car is fairly clean for its age but not 41,000 clean. the title reads 0 miles. It has a Edelbrock 650 carb thats about a year old. The brakes are very nice. There is a backing plate that rubs the brake rotor a little, No big deal. It is an A/C car but the belt is not installed. I am assuming the system need sealed and recharged. It is a very solid car & has minimal rust. The paint is older so it is not show quality. The interior is nice minus a crack on the dash, a few small tears in the upholstery and the worst, the top of the rear seat was sun baked and needs that panel replaced. The surrounding material is in good condition and will be able to be sewn to to fix the issue without doing the whole back rest. All of the badges are gone because they were all beat up and it looked better without them. All of the mounting holes are still there so they can be replaced if need be. All of the glass is fantastic! Minus a crack vertically through the middle if the windshield. the chrome trim is very complete. there are a few minor dings in the trim. nothing that can't be worked out if you would like to fully restore them. The blinkers and the brake lights work. Driving and tail lights work as they should. The power antenna works, the radio works, the speedometer works perfectly. All of the interior lights/ switches work. I have checked/repaired all of the window switches. Both front quarter windows pivot nicely! The drivers door works perfectly yet the passengers side catches sporadically. The window track needs to be re-squared. The rear window relays switch on but the motors do not react. i have not checked to see if they are even connected. the blinker and brake switch wires were not connected when i purchased this car. I cleaned the connections and plugged them in and they work fine. the wipers work fine but need new blades to wipe rain efficiently. Overall it's a cool classy car! It sounds killer! It rumbles nicely when accelerating yet levels out when cruising. Nada lists its value between $5,300 to $23,300 so i think my buy it now price of 12k is fair. Any questions please call 303 906 6999 |

Analysts warn Lincoln shouldn't follow Ford out of the sedan market
Fri, Dec 6 2019Lincoln looks set to mimic Ford's on-going shift away from sedans. The move makes sense on the surface, but analysts warn the luxury brand needs to keep some low-riding models in its portfolio. The company's current lineup includes two sedans, the MKZ and the Continental, plus five SUVs. The sedans aren't long for this world, according to The Detroit Free Press. The publication learned Ford's Hermosillo, Mexico, factory will stop manufacturing the MKZ in late 2020 or early 2021, and it pointed out UAW documents note Continental production will continue "through its product lifecycle." In other words, it's the last model on the Continental branch of the Lincoln family tree. These two nameplates represent 23.3 percent of Lincoln's annual sales so far in 2019, which is a surprising and respectable statistic. One in four cars the company sells is a sedan. The problem is that they accounted for 27.6 percent of the firm's sales in 2018, and that number will continue to fall in 2020 as customers flock towards crossovers and SUVs. And yet, exiting the sedan market isn't the right answer for a company that wants to re-establish its reputation as a luxury automaker. Eric Noble, the president of consulting firm CarLab, told The Detroit Free Press about 40 percent of American buyers in the market for a luxury car choose a sedan. The Chinese market — where Lincoln hopes to gain a secure foothold in the coming years — also has a healthy appetite for sedans. Going SUV-only is a strategy that might work well in the United States, but it doesn't suit Lincoln's ambitions. Germany's big three luxury brands all have a flagship sedan at the top of their range. We can't argue against sales data; the sedan market is shrinking. There are ways to keep buyers in the fold, however. The Continental is a stellar effort from the brand, and a solid foundation on which to build. Noble pointed out Lincoln could use the rear-wheel drive platform found under its Aviator and Ford's latest Explorer to build a four-door model with a fastback-like roof line in the vein of the Audi A7. It's a sleeker, sexier body style that tends to attract more buyers than a more conventional three-box sedan, which is often criticized as old-fashioned. Automakers can normally get away with charging a little bit more for these cars; the A7 is more expensive than the A6, for example. Electrification could be the Lincoln sedan's saving grace.
Electric Lincoln Corsair-E coming in 2026, report says
Wed, Jan 20 2021An electric Lincoln Corsair is on the way, Automotive News reports. It’s currently scheduled to arrive in 2026 and will be built at the Oakville, Ontario, assembly plant. Automotive NewsÂ’ source for this information is AutoForecast Solutions LLC, an automotive global forecasting company. “At this point, weÂ’re not sure if it will completely replace the Corsair or if there will be an equivalent gas-powered Corsair. But they would be on two different platforms,” Sam Fiorani, vice-president of AutoForecast Solutions, told Automotive News. The vehicle is currently going by the name of Corsair-E. ItÂ’s no surprise to see that it would require a new platform to build. The Corsair is currently riding on the Ford EscapeÂ’s platform, and the highest level of electrification seen there is a plug-in hybrid variant. This electric Corsair will be one of many EVs/electrified vehicles being manufactured at the Oakville plant in the coming years. It was announced late last year that Ford would build five new electrified models there this decade, with the first scheduled to roll off the assembly line in 2025 and the last in 2028. This could mean full EVs or hybrids, but the split is unknown so far. Ford still isnÂ’t talking about its specific plans with this Canadian plant. Automotive News received the standard, Ford “does not comment on future products” response when it queried the Blue Oval. In the meantime, anyone wanting their electrified Lincoln Corsair fix can find it in the Corsair Grand Touring PHEV going on sale soon. Related video:
Oh look, it's the 2017 Lincoln Continental
Thu, Jan 7 2016Sorry about the super-low-res photo, but what you're looking at here is the 2017 Lincoln Continental ahead of its official debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week. The image appeared online courtesy of Ford Inside News, showing the production version of Lincoln's new 400-horsepower sedan. The front fascia certainly looks different than the gussied-up concept we first saw in New York last year, but as the Ford forum suggests, this could just be a lower-spec model. Seems weird to us that Lincoln would introduce some snazzy, full-LED headlights and then just slap projector beam units on the actual production car. But you never know. We'll know for sure when the car is revealed at Cobo Hall next week. Expect it to have all-wheel drive with the company's new 400-hp, 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 (that debuted in the MKZ in Los Angeles). Let us know what you think of the production-spec Conti, in Comments. Related Video:
