1962 Lincoln

Up for auction is my beautiful 1962 Lincoln Continental soft top. Perfect example of an original and rust-free classic that's never left California. Only 3000 of these convertibles were built back in 62' and they are getting harder to find each year especially in this condition. This beauty has just over 50k original miles, it's always been stored indoors and only driven on sunny days in dry weather. Absolutley no rust issues anywhere and it has perfect original body panels throughout. As you can see from the pictures it's very straight and everything lines up just as it should. Doors open and close perfect and everything lines up just like the day it rolled off the assembly line.The car underwent cosmetic restoration in 2008 with a new paint job, convertible top, interior upholstery, trim re-chroming, and a few other additions. It runs excellent and it's safe to say you can fly down here to Orange County and drive her back home without a concern.

The car has the original 430 engine and C-6 trans that were both rebuilt back in 2002. I just had the original carburator rebuilt last month, replaced the power steering pump, and had the full exhaust system replaced earlier this year. Car runs amazing and feels like you're riding on a cloud at any speed. This Lincoln has lots of power and picks up fairly quick for such a large car. Engine bay is very clean and the motor was pulled out when the car was repainted to have the color in the bay walls match the exterior. The suspension, power steering, and power brakes all work perfect and the car drives with great ease. It has new wide white-wall Cooker tires (paid $1,000 for the set). No squeaks or rattles anywhere and the engine runs very quite as a Lincoln should. All 4 power window motors were just rebuilt and go up and down well. Exterior lights, wipers, turn signals, power seat, ect all work fine. I recently spent over $5,000 on the convertible top system and replaced the hydraulic pump, all new hoses, electrical relays, rebuilt all 4 hydraulic solenoids, replaced 4 new deck cylinders, and rebuilt the worm gear mechanism. If you know early 60's convertible Lincolns then you know how complex these systems were designed and you know they can cost a small forture to have operating properly. The interior was all done about 2 years ago which included seat upholstery, door panels, interior carpet, trunk carpet, custom tire cover, and new vynil convertible top. The Lincoln was painted in 2008 with a nice two stage "Royal Red" paintjob that still looks great. There's a couple minor paint imperfections from average use but nothing noticable. Car has all original sheet metal and it has never been in an accident. It's never had any rust issues or metal repairs done to it either. Original glass all around in excellent shape as well. All the exterior chrome and stainless trim is original and looks very clean for being over 50 years old. Most of the interior trim has been re-chromed and polished so there's no pitting showing which is common for these old Lincolns. The only things that still need attention are the A/C system and original radio. I pulled out the factory A/C compressor a few months to have it rebuilt but never got around to it. I still have it and all you have to do is rebuild or replace it (about $300 on ebay for a new one) then recharge the system with freon and you're good to go. The original AM radio works but just needs new dash speakers hooked up.

This beauty turns heads and gets thumbs up wherever we drive it. If you don't like being the center of attention when you're on the road then this car is not for you. I've got a clean CA title in hand with current registration ready to be transfered to its new owner. Car is available for inspection by any serious bidder during this auction so feel free to send me a message with your phone number and I will call you to set up an appointment. As all other classic cars it is being sold in AS IS condition and there is no warranty included in this sale. Please ask questions if you are unsure of anything prior to bidding. This is a NO RESERVE listing so the car will go to the highest bidder no matter what. View my feedback and bid with confidence. Thanks for viewing my listing.

Lincoln is changing the way it sells cars (for the better)

Tue, Mar 8 2022

Tucked inside an outdoor shopping complex in Scottsdale, Arizona, among various trendy stores is something one would’ve thought hilariously out of place not so long ago: a Lincoln dealer. But this isnÂ’t any old dealership, Lincoln or otherwise. This would be the Sanderson Lincoln Boutique, the first of its kind for FordÂ’s luxury brand. Walk through the big glass doors and youÂ’re greeted by a 2022 Navigator on your right, a 2022 Aviator Grand Touring straight ahead, and to your left, an expansive coffee bar. Vintage promotional images from LincolnÂ’s midcentury glory years line the walls, which is a treat to anyone fond of that automotive era. There are smaller seating areas elsewhere, including one enclosed in glass presumably for more privately discussing a sale, but the overall vibe is reminiscent of an airline lounge. There are also no sales people: Those on hand are salaried product specialists who get paid the same whether you buy a car or not. Oh, and baristas, there to whip up some caffeine free of charge whether you buy a car or not. That seems like a recipe for being popular with teenagers, but I digress. Lincoln is planning for other such boutique stores, but the decision to create this one was all on an individual dealer, Sanderson Lincoln, with the full support of Lincoln. And according to Lincoln President Joy Falotico, such boutique stores and their car-buying model could complement radical changes already happening elsewhere in the car-buying realm. In short, the ongoing supply shortage is set to change everything. Customers are not only getting used to waiting for cars, but also ordering them and therefore getting exactly what they want. ThatÂ’s where boutique stores come in. At the same time, Lincoln and its dealers see the value in not keeping huge inventories of cars that will end up discounted or incentivized. Yes, that means being able to keep prices higher, which is a giant part of this, but it also means theyÂ’ll be delivering cars customers actually want. “We donÂ’t intend to go back to the old model of (overabundant) dealer inventory,” Falotico definitively said. She elaborated that moving to a model where customers increasingly order their cars could increase the build possibilities and opportunities for customization.

Ford recalls Explorer, Flex, Taurus for parking brakes

Wed, Jul 22 2015

Ford announced a recall of nearly 8,000 vehicles spread across a broad range of models for a faulty parking brake, which might not engage fully. The automaker has not received any reports of accidents or injuries resulting from the issue. The recall affects certain examples of the 2015-16 Ford Explorer, the 2015 Taurus, and the 2015 Flex. The 2015 Lincoln MKS and MKT are also included in the campaign. The vehicles in question were assembled at the company's Chicago and Oakville (Ontario) plants from May 4 to May 23. All told, 7,165 of the affected vehicles are estimated to be in the United States, with another 799 in Canada, and a solitary example in Mexico. In order to address the issue, owners are asked to bring the affected vehicles their local dealership, where technicians will inspect the vehicle and where necessary, replace the parking brake control assembly.
