HERE IS A GORGEOUS LOOKING AND HIGHLY OPTIONED 1957 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL MARK II THAT HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY BODY-ON RESTORED AND IS A TURN-KEY DRIVER. VERY ORIGINAL CAR WITH 38K MILES ON THE ODOMETER!
Please e-mail me with questions or to set up an inspection to see the car in person. AUCTION MAY BE STOPPED AT ANY TIME.
This is one of 500 or so Mark II's produced in 1957. These were "benchmark" cars offered by Lincoln, and were basically all hand made, sort of like Rolls Royces back in the day. They were used to promote the brand, but were so expensive to build that the company nearly lost money on every one they sold, thus explaining the very few numbers of presentable to fine examples still around today.
Vehicle came out of Wisconsin. This car was acquired from the 3rd owner I believe. It had an older body-on restoration presumably done in the late 1990s to early 2000s. Since I've acquired it I did lots of small things to the car, mostly in the form of service work and maintenance as it didn't need much else to be a nice driver. Radiator was completely recored a few months ago. The transmission was completely rebuilt, NEW engine gaskets insalled, NEW hoses, NEW brakes all around including NEW master cylinder done in 2007 per receipts.Car runs/drives like a dream, very quiet and very smooth. Odometer shows 38k miles.
Under the hood lies the MATCHING NUMBERS 368ci V8 motor that is virtually all stock other than the aftermarket air cleaner. Starts up nicely and idles beautifully.
Mechanically it fires right up and sounds great. Transmission is solid and shifts good through all the gears. Brakes have been overhauled and stop great. Car feels great, handles the road nicely, sounds fairly quiet and is very responsive with little if any play in the steering wheel.
Interior is virtually all stock as you'll see in the pictures and was all RECENTLY REDONE COMPLETELY. NEW seat covers throughout, NEW carpeting, NEW door panels, NEW headliner, etc. etc. Steering wheel has various cracks throughout. Dash looks in good shape as well with minor wear. Overall beautifully presentable for a high-end driver.
Chrome is very presentable as well. Front bumper is very nice, rear one is presentable with a couple of areas where it has been touched up.
Underside is notorious on these cars for varying greatly from car to car, as these cars were basically all hand built back in the 50s. This particular Lincoln is in fair/good shape overall. Floors appear to be in fair shape with no large holes anywhere. Frame appears solid, with a couple of areas where there may have been small patches. Heavy undercoating evident, as is common with these (i've had a couple in the past and they all look the same). Overall fairly good shape.
The old girl is NOT perfect by any means of course so please keep that in mind when bidding. Paint is overall GOOD with FAIRLY NICE shine but could definitely use a good wetsand and buff by a professionally to really make it shine (some touch-ups, small chips here and there, and other minor imperfections as you would expect). Hood needs minor adjustment as it sits a little high towards the windshield, but opens and closes fine. No rust appearing from outside the car other than a few tiny bubbles where the rear wheel openings had a couple of metal patches. Not working: all gauges (cluster needs reconditioning), wipers, rear power windows, parking brake. Small exhaust leak. Windshield and passenger wing window have small pellet cracks from stones hitting it, while passenger front window has a tiny crack.
I am sure there are several other things I am forgetting at the moment, so overall she is not perfect and to do it justice should be gently restored to your liking, or you can just drive it as is. Please note, I cannot remember every single issue with the car, nor do I know everything wrong with it, as it is after all over 50 years old so keep that in mind.
If you just want a GOOD LOOKING AND SUPER FUN DRIVER that runs/drives BEAUTIFULLY, then this is the car for you. If you want a concourse correct show car, it will need a considerable amount of restoration to bring it up to that level of course. I ENCOURAGE ANYONE BIDDING OR SERIOUSLY INTERESTED TO COME LOOK AT IT IN PERSON. I WILL BE GLAD TO SHOW IT TO YOU TOP TO BOTTOM SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO.

Quitting Mexico factory helps bring down Ford earnings $200 million in 2016
Thu, Jan 26 2017Ford released its 2016 earnings report this morning, and despite a fourth quarter net loss it proved to be the automaker's second most successful year ever, following record breaking numbers in 2015. Losses for the year come from a number of sources, including accounting changes and a $200 million hit for backing out of the small-car factory in San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Despite the loss, come March 9 about 56,000 UAW-represented employees will receive a $9,000 profit-sharing check. That, like most of Ford's other 2016 metrics, is slightly down from the year before, but it's still the second best profit-sharing payment ever. Total net income was $4.6 billion, down $2.8 billion from 2015. Total revenue for 2016 was $151.8 billion, up $2.2 billion. Ford's earnings report lists a global market share of 7.6 percent, down a tenth from 2015. Ford's European and Asia-Pacific markets posted their best and second best pre-tax profits respectively. The South American, Middle East, and African markets all took hits because of unstable economies and other external factors. Ford expects to have another down year in 2017 as it invests in new and emerging markets and focuses more on its mobility projects.Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford's Galhotra succeeds Farley as head of Lincoln
Wed, 23 Jul 2014Ford Motor Company is announcing a major personnel shakeup that could have a dramatic effect on the future of the Lincoln division. Kumar Galhotra (pictured above), currently vice president of engineering at Ford for all of its vehicles worldwide, is taking over as the president of the luxury brand on September 1, replacing Jim Farley. The automaker is also hiring a new head of advanced engineering.
Galhotra has a huge job ahead of him as the new boss of Lincoln worldwide, overseeing product development, marketing, sales and service. His task is to turn the luxury division into a world-class brand as quickly as possible, and he reports directly to Ford President and CEO Mark Fields.
"These changes underscore our commitment to build on the success of our One Ford plan by accelerating our pace of progress. They also make clear we are serious about Lincoln as a world-class luxury brand and that product excellence and innovation are what will deliver growth and define our entire company going forward," said Fields in the company's announcement.
We test Lincoln's 20-speaker Revel Ultima stereo with a rock star
Fri, Aug 26 2016If there's two things Detroiters know, it's music and cars. So when Lincoln approached us with big claims about their latest stereo system, the Revel Ultima System, we sought out a veteran of the Motor City music scene to test it out. First unveiled at the 2015 Detroit International Auto Show in the Lincoln MKX, Revel is bringing its bumping bass to the 2017 Lincoln MKZ. We had Dick Valentine, lead singer of Electric Six and favorite son of Detroit, try out the 20-speaker, 1200-watt system. If you want it on your MKZ, Revel Ultima is part of the $4,400 Luxury Package. Electric Six is perhaps most famous for its early hit, Gay Bar, and the music video filled with shirtless Abe Lincolns in the White House. Since their debut release, Fire, E6 has backed up a regular touring schedule with ten more studio albums, both a live album and live DVD, and an upcoming quasi-reality film titled Roulette Stars of Metro Detroit. We met up with Valentine on the set of the Roulette Stars to explore the depths of his sardonic wit that oozes through every E6 song. Lincoln says that Revel is the best in the biz. And we'll admit, the stats are impressive. But are 20 speakers and marketing terms like Quantum Logic Surround Technology, Clari-Fi Technology and Point Source Architecture enough to impress a Detroit legend? Valentine knows a little something about sound. As the lead singer and frontman of the Electric Six, he's spent over twenty years hearing his tunes played through speakers. While Valentine hasn't owned a car in a while, he does have opinions on jamming inside of them. We played songs from the band's latest album Bitch, Don't Let Me Die to see if Revel truly delivers on it's bold claims. Related Video: Celebrities Lincoln Ownership music audio sound system
