1963 Lincoln Continental on 2040-cars
Palos Verdes Peninsula, California, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Model: Continental
Drive Type: rear wheel
Mileage: 145,000
Trim: continental
This car has been in my family since new. I received it in 1991. It had not been driven since 1974. Over the last 22 years I have spent around $12,000 not including paint. I have receipts from Baker, Lincoln Land, etc. The car is basically original. I have replaced shocks, rear springs, windshield, weatherstripping, glove box, exhaust, freeze plugs, and everything you would think a car that sat for seventeen years would need. Gas tank was removed, all brake parts are new, carb, water pump, generator. Car runs great and does not smoke. I have gone as long as a year without driving it and always starts up and runs well. The wood on the doors and glove box are new. Coker radials, vinyl interior, lots of chrome work (door handles, hockey sticks, rear fender pieces, headlight rims) I rebuilt all the window switches and they work great. New rubber in wind wings. The paint job was $6,000 but there is rust appearing in the doors. I recently needed brake drums and was not able to locate any. I machined the drums and built shoes but they squeak when hot. Now the dutens in the steering column will not allow you to downshift into low. The transmission works well otherwise and you can drive the car but I have had enough. Priced to sell as is. Please feel free to call me with any questions. Ken Dunn 1 310 938 8280

Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.
2013 Lincoln MKZ [w/video]
Fri, 07 Dec 2012Rebranding When Reinvention Is Requisite
Lincoln - pardon us, the Lincoln Motor Company - assures us that Ford is committed to its success. The awkwardness of the statement (which feels vaguely like your mother telling you that she loves and supports you regardless of what everyone else thinks) was hard to escape when we recently spent a few days with the all-new second-generation 2013 Lincoln MKZ.
Launched earlier this year at the 2012 New York Auto Show, the MKZ is a midsize premium sedan that shares platforms with the Ford Fusion (also all-new for 2013). The sedan's primary competitors, according to Lincoln, include the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, Cadillac CTS and Lexus ES Series sedans - each an established, accomplished player.
2015 Lincoln Navigator
Mon, 15 Sep 2014Typically, when I approach a new vehicle launch, it's with a degree of optimism. Nowadays, we just expect that every new vehicle will pose a legitimate challenge to segment leaders. Mid-cycle refreshes, meanwhile, have taken on a greater degree of importance, as customers' preferences for the freshest vehicles remains strong and automakers rush to keep the latest tech in their offerings.
Conversely, I admit to not being terribly optimistic hopping into the 2015 Lincoln Navigator. I was the first person from Autoblog to see the new model in the metal, way back in January ahead of its Chicago Auto Show debut, and my initial reaction was far from positive. But, as I'd been the one that initially tested the new Cadillac Escalade and had just finished a week in the long-wheelbase version of General Motors' most premium SUV, I was a natural candidate to head down to Louisville, KY - home of Navigator production - to sample the brand's latest.
Lincoln's attempt at freshening the old Navigator's bling-bling face is pretty typical of today's more thorough mid-cycle refreshes, with dramatically new front and rear clips. The addition of standard 20-inch wheels or optional 22s - in place of standard 18s and optional 20s - goes a long way towards modernizing the Navigator's staid exterior. The cabin, meanwhile, is home to finer leather, which covers most of the dash as well as the steering wheel and seats. Warm Ziricote wood would prove to be a particular highlight on the top-flight Reserve model that I drove (the only trim available for us to test).
