A 2 Owner Survivor With Original Paint, Interior, Engine, Transmission on 2040-cars
Stamford, Connecticut, United States
|
Up for auction is a 2 owner 1964 Lincoln Continental that has been garage kept since new. All original paint, sheet metal, and drive line. The stainless is in great condition with the exception of the left front fender trim. There are door marks down the sides as this was not always a collector vehicle and was actually used for trips to Macy's and Tiffany's but these are on the surface. Vehicle is registered and driven on those days that we yearn for all year long. Rear bumper corners are "bumped" up, but very fixable as the "little old lady" that originally owned it backed into the garage daily and stopped when she could not go further. Original leather interior is in excellent condition with no tears, abnormal creases or stains. Original carpet shows no major wear and the head liner is perfect. All original panels still in place in the trunk. 59,320 miles and tracks straight and true. Tires have less than 1,000 miles on them, the originals where too dry rotted to be saved for any use. The brakes are a little soft, radio cuts in and out and the clock is disconnected at this time. Windows operate, but can be a little "touchy" and are all power including the "fly" windows. Ride in what American Luxury is all about as this car floats down the road. Vehicle inspection encouraged as you will not find another SURVIVOR in this condition unless its been cordoned off in a museum with only the finest curators near it, and those can't be driven! Some original paper work is included. Bidders with zero / negative feed back must contact before bidding. I have already sent all my collector cars overseas to the lottery winners so no need to contact me about this one. Vehicle is located in Fairfield County Connecticut. Remember, this is a 50 year old, not all 50+ year old Americans look this good aside from Christie Brinkley. Cash or certified bank check only. Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and inspection fees.

2015 Ford F-150 named Truck of Texas, Lincoln and Jeep also awarded at Truck Rodeo
Tue, 14 Oct 2014The Ford Motor Company has a lot of reasons to celebrate after winning eight categories in this year's Texas Auto Writers Association's annual Truck Rodeo. Most important among them, the Blue Oval's latest 2015 Ford F-150 earned the prestigious Truck of Texas award, ending the Ram 1500's two-year winning streak. The 2015 Lincoln MKC also grabbed the honor as the CUV of Texas, and Ford was named Truck Line of Texas.
FoMoCo even took trophies for best technology with its extensive use of aluminum on its latest F-Series and best commercial vehicle for the new Transit 250. It wasn't a total sweep, though, because the Jeep Grand Cherokee grabbed the title of the SUV of Texas for the fifth straight time.
This year's event put 60 auto writers in 75 pickups, SUVs and crossovers and challenged them to find the best in a plethora of categories. All of the winners are listed below, and scroll down to read the full announcements from the Texas Auto Writers Association and Ford.
Next Lincoln Navigator to drop V8 in favor of V6, but Ford Expedition might get both
Tue, 12 Mar 2013A great many buyers fled from full-size body-on-frame SUVs to car-based crossovers in large measure to save fuel. But that doesn't mean there's still not a buying audience for more traditional truck-based utility vehicles, and those consumers doubtlessly wouldn't mind saving some dollars at the pump, too. According to Motor Trend, those shoppers might be in luck.
That's because the magazine has confirmed that Ford isn't walking away from the full-size SUV segment, and it's poised to do something about its offerings' economy ratings, too. According to MT, global Lincoln director Matt VanDyke has hinted that the next Navigator may drop two cylinders and go with a V6 model - the current model gets just 14 miles per gallon in the city and 20 on the highway from its 5.4-liter V8. The obvious fitment would be Ford's 3.5-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost V6, an engine that has spread like kudzu throughout the rest of the Blue Oval's large vehicle lineup.
Downsized turbocharged engines like Ford's EcoBoost franchise have come under fire as of late for not delivering their EPA fuel economy ratings, but their benefits extend beyond consumption - the 3.5L offers superior power and a better torque curve than the naturally aspirated V8. MT also suggests that Ford's 3.7-liter V6 could form the base engine for the next Navi - it has similar horsepower but a lot less torque than the current 5.4L. That may be less of a problem with the next generation tipped to go on a diet, which could level the playing field somewhat.
GM design boss Welburn says Lincoln isn't a Cadillac rival [w/poll]
Thu, 05 Dec 2013General Motors Vice President of Global Design, Ed Welburn, had some dismissive words for a certain cross-town luxury brand during an interview with Car and Driver. When asked about his thoughts on Lincoln, Welburn deflected, before saying, "I don't consider Lincoln to be a competitor for Cadillac."
"They're not a global luxury brand. I don't consider them a competitor. Are they a competitor for Buick? Quite possibly. But not for Cadillac," GM's head designer explained. Welburn, who's been at the helm of GM Design North America since 2003 and is the first to hold the position of VP of Global Design, has been instrumental in the styling renaissance at GM, so predictably, Car and Driver's interview with him focused on the design aspect of cars.
During the interview, Welburn explicitly denied plans for a reborn Cadillac XLR, even as a new Chevrolet Corvette is hitting the market and strides are being made with Cadillac's V-Series performance arm saying, "We have a lot of cars that we're working on for the Cadillac brand. The XLR is not one of them right now."
