1967 Lincoln Continental Convertible - Rare Last Year With Only 2275 Produced on 2040-cars
Melbourne, Florida, United States

Barn find! This is a good solid complete car to restore. I purchased this car with the intent to restore but unfortunately must sell. Overall this is a very solid car with only a couple of small areas of rust with a little in the trunk and a little on the passenger side dogleg both of which are easy repairs. Engine runs with a gas can hooked up. Has been inside storage for last 20 years until about a month ago. Appears to be all there except the rear top control switch by the gas door. I currently have it at Lincoln Ranch in Central Florida where I was going to get them to do some of the restoration work. You are welcome to call them and ask Tim Nill, the owner, about the cars condition or set up an appointment to see it. They specialize in Lincoln parts and restoration. I also have the Marti Report that goes with it. The Marti Report is available for the 1967 Lincolns only. It tells you exactly how the car was equipped with options, interior and exterior colors and statistics regarding how many were made with certain paint colors and interior trim colors. For example this is one of only 70 built with these paint and trim codes making it rather rare. Options include:
The 1967 has become one of the most desired years of these awesome 4 door convertibles and the Haggerty Insurance Valuation guide shows it and the similar 1966 model to be of higher value than the other years. I think partially due to it's improvements such as the glass rear window, more options and overall a better driver.These rare classics are getting harder to find in good restorable condition and this is one that is well worth restoring.
*Please feel free to email with questions and to setup an inspection of the car. Inspections must take place before bidding not after. If you do not personally inspect the car or have someone inspect it on your behalf then you must agree to positive feedback. I say this because although I try to disclose everything to my knowledge concerning condition of the car my opinion may differ from yours. Please understand that if you bid on this or anything on ebay and hit the reserve and wind up being the high bidder then you are obligated to purchase just the same as if you went to a Barett Jackson or Mecum auction. Please do not waste my time or that of serious bidders by bidding on something you can't follow through on. |

2015 Lincoln Navigator ready to roll for $62,475*
Wed, 21 May 2014Fancy picking up a refreshed Lincoln Navigator? Well, prepare to shell out at least $62,475. That's a whopping increase of $6,310 for the now-EcoBoost-equipped SUV.
That's just for the two-wheel-drive Select model, though. Want to drive all four wheels? Better have an extra $3,575 laying around. Snagging the top-of-the-line Reserve model, meanwhile, demands a premium of $7,500.
For those extra bills, you'll net Lincoln Drive Control, complete with continuously controlled dampers, power running boards, Ziricote wood interior trim, upgraded leather, 22-inch wheels, a "unique" interior headliner and, of course, a "Reserve" badge.
RWD Lincolns are coming, fate depends partly on MKZ success
Tue, 04 Dec 2012The product portfolio at Lincoln may seem a bit sparse at the moment, but if a report is to be believed, new products are on the way. TheDetroitBureau.com spoke with sources at Lincoln and Ford, who claimed the American premium brand is working on, perhaps more than one, rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
Lincoln would likely platform-share with the next-generation Ford Mustang to develop those RWD offerings in the early going. Moving forward, the report indicates that Lincoln could take the lead on other rear-drive projects in the future. As the RWD architecture continues to take shape, "most or all" of the front-wheel-drive portfolio will also be offered with all-wheel drive as an option, ala Audi.
But wait, there's more! The report also suggests that a replacement for the full-size MKS is on the way, as well as a new Navigator and a luxury crossover based on the current Ford Escape.
Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
