This is a rare car to locate today. The milage is acurate. Only 71113. This Lincoln was special ordered by my wife's grandmother in 1979 and meticulously garage kept by her until her passing last year. We brought it home and immediately put it under a 7 layered high end car cover where it has been sitting. The car had been sitting for about 2 years until we got it. I had the carb rebuilt by a lincoln mechanic and put back on last weekend and now it runs and drives perfect. The seats had been covered with towels for all of its years to prevent fading and wear. It was never smoked in and the carpet, headliner and fabric are all in excellent condition. All of the factory options are still in place, 8 track digital stereo and factory CB radio. It has a nice white half carriage top and the opera windows. all chrome is complete and in great shape. The paint is in excellent condition. There are only a couple very minor blemishes I took pics of and listed. The only things I know of that need attention are as follows: The fuel gauge is not working properly. I think the float in the tank is stuck from sitting. The windshield is cracked on the lower drivers side (pictured also). Price to replace windshield locally was $250.00. The a/c copmressor is very noisy and is not blowing very cold. It seems to have an exhaust leak. I noticed 1 small place under the trim just above the trunk where the paint seems to be bubbled up like the start of rust. I havent seen any other rust on the car. Other than these things it is excellent for its age. The oil was recently changed and it was recently tuned up. It has always had michelin tires. They are in great shape. It rides like you are floating on a cloud and the seats are like sittiing on your favorite couch. Only a few minor details to repair from sitting and you could have a headturning show car. This is a beautiful classic collectors car that needs a loving home where it can be garaged, shown and proudly driven on a Sunday Afternoon. It is being sold as is where is with no warranty given or implied. Please feel free to ask any questions and Thank you for looking. |

Lincoln MKX Concept goes for the gold in Beijing
Sun, 20 Apr 2014We've now seen the Lincoln MKX Concept in the metal, and we've shot it with the lenses of our own DSLR cameras. And we have to say, our opinion of the concept's design language has improved over our initial reaction. Yes, it's clear that this MKX shares its underpinnings with those of the Ford Edge Concept that we saw in LA, but the changes made by Lincoln stylists are a welcome departure from the angular lines of its corporate cousin from The Blue Oval.
We like the subtlety of the MKX Concept's front fascia, and the lighting elements both front and rear lend a luxurious quality to the crossover's typical two-box proportions. When combined with the smaller MKC that was shown in production form late last year, it's clear to see that Lincoln has a specific design direction that at least seems visually capable of setting it apart from the Ford models with which the brand shares its platforms. Here's hoping there are some Lincoln-specific upgrades underhood...
Have a look at our image gallery of live photos from Beijing above, reread the press release below, and feel free to let us know what you think.
Never mind the naysayers; Lincoln is worth saving
Fri, 10 Jan 2014
In the case of Henry Leland, naming his new car brand after the first President he cast a vote for in 1864 seemed a jolly good idea, on paper.
You should always be careful about the name you choose to give your new baby. The power of association can work in many ways, not always positive.
Ford hybrid sales rebound following MPG controversy
Sun, 31 Aug 2014Ford hybrid customers apparently have very short memories. With two EPA fuel economy reratings in the last year, sales of the C-Max, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ haven't been too terribly dented, Ward's Auto reports.
All three vehicles saw sales dips following the August 2013 rerating, although sales of the MKZ Hybrid had begun to rebound as early as November of that year. C-Max sales, meanwhile, took slightly longer, with sales on a steadily improving course as early as February of this year.
The second rerating, in June of this year, has had an even smaller effect on the Blue Oval's hybrids. The C-Max has actually been subject to a sales increase, while both the MKZ and Fusion saw minor sales drops (less than 400 units between the two in the month following the rerating).
