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 |

Ford abandons MyFord Touch, all hail Sync 3 infotainment [w/video]
Thu, Dec 11 2014MyFord Touch has been among the most widely disdained automotive infotainment systems on the market, practically since its introduction in 2010. Consumer Reports was among the most vocal critics, all but advocating its lynching by an angry mob armed with torches and pitchforks. Not surprisingly, then, after such a critical walloping, Ford has finally decided to say goodbye to the unloved tech, declaring the end of MyFord Touch branding in favor of Sync 3 for its upcoming, all-new system. Ford is promising everything you would expect from Sync 3, including faster response time, better voice-command integration, easier controls and a more useable interface. The screen layout includes fewer items to make them easier to discern, and the icons are made from large, high-contrast buttons. There's also a dedicated tab for apps at the bottom of the screen in addition to those for audio, climate, phone and navigation. Another useful feature is the fact that Sync 3 can download improvements over your home Wi-Fi for easier updates. In addition to the revamped interface, the software running behind the scenes is a big change too. Rather than MyFord Touch's Microsoft-sourced system, Sync 3 uses the Blackberry-owned QNX, according to Automotive News. Such a switch was rumored earlier this year. Drivers still have to live with MyFord Touch a little longer, though. According to Automotive News, Ford said that the change to Sync 3 will happen during the 2016 model year with complete integration into the lineup by the end of the 2016 calendar year. It will come standard on Titanium trim models and as a separate option will be priced in line with the current MyFord Touch. The Sync 3 brand will carry over to Lincoln, too, but with a different look. The gallery above shows a few more looks at the interface, and we invite you to scroll down to watch a video of Sync 3 in action and to read Ford's press release about it, below.

MKC Concept is the real fresh start for Lincoln [w/poll]
Mon, 14 Jan 2013We were admittedly bullish about the Lincoln MKC Concept when we introduced it to you yesterday, as we were taken aback by how cohesive the C-platform crossover is in the metal. As it turns out, so were you, dear reader. With hundreds of comments booked on our original Deep Dive story, the overwhelming temperature of the Autoblog Commenteriat is one of surprise and delight - quite an accomplishment for a marque that many had written off for dead. The reception here under the bright lights of the Detroit Auto Show appears to be no less positive, but we thought you might want a second, closer look afforded by these live photos.
Lincoln remains mum on production MKC drivetrain specifics (we're thinking it will start with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder out of its similarly sized Ford Escape relative, or maybe the midlevel 1.6-liter), but we shouldn't have to wait too long. The showcar is expected to closely mirror the production model (due as early as later this year), so much so that Ford global marketing boss Jim Farley explicitly told the press conference masses, "When you see the MKC, do not think concept." That's good news, as the MKC is pivotal to Lincoln's effort to rebuild awareness and consideration on the back of its MKZ sedan, a model just now going on sale. In fact, with the small crossover segment exploding, the MKC could very well turn out to be more important to the brand than the MKZ.
After seeing these new photos, are you more or less enamored with Lincoln's new concept? Leave a comment after voting in our poll below.
Why Lincoln says it's loving Ellen and Conan MKC ad spoofs [w/videos]
Mon, 13 Oct 2014You would think that commercial being ridiculed across the Internet would be an advertising executive's worst nightmare, but that's not necessarily the case. At least not when it comes to Lincoln and its latest campaign to promote the new MKC.
The campaign features Matthew McConaughey channeling his characters from True Detective and The Lincoln Lawyer, and was quickly spoofed by both Conan O'Brien and Ellen DeGeneres. But instead of shaking their heads in dismay at the comedy talk-show hosts' take on their ad, Lincoln and its advertising firm Hudson Rouge welcome the free publicity.
"We're flattered. Just to get out into the public mind with parodies says you've achieved a certain amount of notoriety," Hudson Rouge CCO Jon Pearce told Automotive News. "It's hard to put a dollar amount on earned media. We couldn't ask for better."
