I Received this lincoln as a Payment on a 8,000 dollar Flooring job. I was told that the motor has around 30k on the rebuilt original motor. I'm not into these cars but I saw the value in it. The paint is at least 15 years old from looking at it. Its in driver condition and its not perfect. There's one rust hole in the driver fender up front but other then that its surface rust. The paint actually looks pretty good for its age, I haven't had it detailed or cleaned or buffed at all, It will be very presentable once someone has that done. From what I have learned about the car It needs a generator a starter and new tires to make it a driver. The starter does the old whining thing but it will start it, its more annoying then anything. All The Glass is in good shape with no cracks and I believe its also original. All the windows work but the driver side wing window."the little button is broke off. All the lights work inside and out work" Wippers, all settings on the power seat, blinkers,brake,reverse,tail and high and Low beam ALL work. The Brakes are soft but they do stop it. It actually drives down the road pretty nice I was surprised at the way these big old cars ride. Its pretty much an original car with all original interior.There might be small amounts of filler here and there But nothing that I have found or see. The head liner has holes in it and under the visor is pretty bad.
Radio works the blower motor works, I was told the air conditioning works but the cable for the hot and cold and the defrost and vents is off or broke behind the switch. The worst part about the car is the inside of the trunk lid, Not sure why but its pretty rusted out but only on the inside of the lid? The floors and frame are in Great shape with hardly even surface rust which is rare in Minnesota. If you have any questions please email or call me!!! I have described the Lincoln as best as I can! It Is For sale AS IS WHERE IS. 612-385-1053 Its best to see These old cars in person so if you can you should have it inspected!~!

Lincoln MKC Concept shows real promise [w/video]
Sun, 13 Jan 2013Ford's efforts to resuscitate its moribund Lincoln luxury brand began in earnest with the introduction of its 2014 MKZ sedan, a model many labeled as the marque's make-or-break offering. Of course, one model does not a comeback make, and with the MKZ just now starting to trickle into dealers, it will be some time before America's jury of consumers comes in with their judgment. More to the point, it's likely to take better than a decade's worth of products and sustained marketing effort to even begin to figure out whether Lincoln has a shot at redemption or if it will die of Mercury poisoning. After all, rival General Motors has been pouring resources into Cadillac since the late '90s, and if the sales charts are any guidance, it's still probably too early to declare its rebirth a success.
Certainly, a brand with Ford's resources, free of distractions (read: the now-defunct Premier Auto Group and various other side projects) should be able to successfully market a single luxury brand, particularly one with such a rich - if distant - history. Especially now with the Blue Oval enjoying more consumer goodwill than at any time in recent history. So let's all give Alan Mulally and friends a little room to work, eh?
We can start by focusing on the compact crossover seen before you, the Lincoln MKC Concept. Riding atop the same global C-platform that underpins the Ford C-Max, Escape and Focus, the MKC showcar here presages a production small CUV that will stick its distinctive nose into one of the auto industry's fastest-growing segments.
Lincoln to resurrect old nameplates for China?
Wed, 04 Dec 2013Judging by the success that many luxury automakers are currently experiencing in China, it's no surprise that Lincoln plans to take advantage of the situation by peddling its wares across the Pacific. Lincoln will open its first Chinese dealership next year, but potential buyers there won't be mucking through the same alphabet soup of car names found in American showrooms. USA Today reports that Ford's luxury car division could revert back to legacy names (like Continental and Zephyr) in China while keeping the MK_ names here in North America.
In speaking to Ford exec Jim Farley during the LA Auto Show, USA Today says that Lincoln could switch its naming structure as models are refreshed. Farley didn't confirm that the naming revamp would be a China-only decision, but article leaves little hope that American buyers will get to see the return of classic names anytime soon.
Why would Ford rehash old Lincoln names for China only? Buyers there seem to have a better historical associations with the nameplates than in the US. Chinese also still hold Lincoln in high regard, associating the marque with use by prominent government officials.
2015 Lincoln MKC
Mon, 09 Jun 2014Back in 2012, Lincoln claimed its comeback bid was finally underway with the new-for-2013 MKZ. But don't you believe them - the renaissance won't actually begin in earnest until the shapely compact crossover seen here reaches showrooms in big numbers. That's because while the four-door MKZ was indeed a proper step toward rebirth, the 2015 MKC is the first wholly conceived vehicle under Lincoln as a standalone brand, a move first announced back in 2012.
That's an important distinction, because Lincoln's newfound emancipation from Ford's design and development processes has given the struggling marque both the corporate wherewithal and the will to develop a more fully formed product. The four-wheeled result seen here is a surprisingly cohesive luxury CUV, one with significantly more aesthetic and dynamic separation from its Ford Escape sibling than the MKZ and its Fusion counterpart. Said another way, after flogging Lincoln's latest for hundreds of miles over canyon roads outside of Santa Barbara, we've come to understand that this is far from a re-grilled Dearborn special with luxury tinsel - it's a bona fide standalone product that readily displays the sort of clear differentiation seen in platform cousins like the Audi Q5 and the Volkswagen Tiguan. It's the real deal.
