This is a very clean low mile survivor car - gets a lot of attention
This wonderful Lincoln just came pout of a 8 year dry storage, the owner was to old to drive anymore. It is one of the cleanest original cars I have seen for years with only 47k miles. The interior is close to mint condition. It is a non smoker car and when you get in the car it still smells like leather. The headliner, all interior trim and chrome is so nice. The seats and door panels are great shape with only a little fading on the original carpets. All the power accessories work good, including power windows, six way seat, radio and power antenna. The car is a locale car from Seattle and still has the original owners name on the Lincoln dash plact "Hilda Hart". The car drive great, smooth power, tight steering as you would expect from a low mile car. The brakes are great and there are no leaks when the car is parked. It was inspected buy a classic repair shop and serviced as needed. I have been driving the car for a couple of weeks and it draws a lot of attention. The car is very original with only one repair in the original color several years ago. The stainless is very nice as well as the bumpers, with only a dent it the rear bumper outside corner end. There is a straight replacement part included with the car.
The items that were serviced are,
-Tune up, oil change & lube
-Rebuilt carburetor & fuel pump
-Battery
-Cooling system serviced
All the electrical , lights, horn, signals, heater , defrost, reverse lights, cig lighter, and dome lights works well
- Inop is the clock
I just inspected the car on a hoist and found NO rust on the underside and floors. It has been in dry storage the last 8 years and was a driver up to then.
There are little pimples of rust in the lower corner on some of the doors and the corner of the rear quarter panels. Overall a very solid car.
I have sold several classic cars on e-bay in the last few years from my collection and for friends. All the buyers have been happy.
Road test, phone calls are encouraged and very welcome. Steve Fisher 206-755-3420

Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy
Tue, 16 Jul 2013Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.

Ford investing $5B in Lincoln
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.
