1967 Lincoln 2 Door Hardtop 1967 Continental Coupe on 2040-cars
Ferndale, Washington, United States
|
This auction is for a nice start on a 1967 Lincoln Continental Coupe. This is one of 11,060 Continental Coupes built in 1967. The car came from a dry climate (Spokane, WA ) and has been in and out of storage for the last 20 something years. It was last driven about 1998 and since then, the engine has a knock, the brakes should be gone through. (low pedal)
Overall this is how they say 'is all there and in good condition'. There are 2 spots that have had bodywork/paint and the rest of the car has its original paint on it starting to wear thin. The body is as 'rust free' as they come and seems very solid. The exhaust was redone close to original front to back as well as new tires back in the 1990's although 1 tire goes down every once in awhile. The door panels are removed to fix a window switch and were never put back on but are included with the car. Most of the car is there and there is spare trim for the left quarter panel in the trunk along with some other spare parts. The wheel covers are not original , the hood ornament and trunk ornament are missing. There is no battery. There are no signs of collision damage, other than 2 spots where the paint has been 'spotted in' . There is no sign of cancer although there is some surface rust here and there. The car does have a few dings and dents, rear bumper has a dent etc from normal use and age..... Clear Washington State title, Will store a short time while you haul. |

Farley says Lincoln learnings in China could influence brand in US
Tue, 14 May 2013Automotive News reports Lincoln is looking to Chinese luxury shoppers for customer service ideas. Those notions may eventually make their way back to the US in the form of new dealership training. Jim Farley, the executive vice president of global marketing for Ford, tells Automotive News, "In many ways, China will be a listening post for Lincoln in the United States. Soon China will be the largest luxury market in the world." Farley also said that in China, the Lincoln brand is currently where Lexus was when the Japanese brand first landed in the US.
Lincoln is slated to open its first Chinese dealerships in 2014. The brand is largely unknown in Asia, and Lincoln representatives have been visiting other luxury dealers in China for an idea of what buyers there expect. Lincoln has also studied non-automotive luxury shopping, paying special attention to high-end retail branding.
Of course, this whole song and dance feels awfully familiar. Lincoln has focused heavily on remaking the brand and recrafting its marketing here in the States, thus far without sufficient product to back the play. Lincoln is already late to the China game, and without the necessary products to lure buyers away from established bodies like Buick and Cadillac, Lincoln may be doomed to repeat its fate here in the US.
Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion
Thu, 11 Sep 2014We all had to see this coming. Conan O'Brien has released a parody of Matthew McConaughey's new ads for the 2015 Lincoln MKC and remixed them with lines from one of his most critically acclaimed recent roles.
The now much darker commercial probably isn't how Lincoln would prefer the MKC to be marketed, but really in a few of the actual ads, McConaughey already seems moments away from breaking into a full Rustin Cohle from True Detective impression. The cadence and tone of his voice are just so close to that character, especially in the one where he's talking to the bull standing in the middle of the road. It very nearly verges on parody anyway; Conan is just turning all of this up to 11.
It's a little surprising that the writers didn't dig a little deeper into the McConaughey oeuvre for the parody. Maybe McConaughey could have taken the MKC for a party at the Moon Tower from Dazed and Confused. In any case, it's worth a quick watch, so check it out.
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
