Fort Mitchell, Kentucky, United States
1967 Lincoln Continental 4 Door Sedan with "Suicide" Doors - Only 42,000 MIles! This is a 100 percent stock, unmolested rare find and 100 percent complete (except for one missing small trim piece on the front (see pics). MECHANICAL: - Runs/drives/shifts/stops/starts fine - Recent complete tune-up (plugs/points/wires etc) and fluid change - Recent new brake parts/repairs - Newly-rebuilt original carb - New fuel pump/fuel lines/gas tank clean out - Several new front-end parts - Does have some exhaust noise BODY: - Super straight sheet metal!- no dents or noticeable dings - Finished in original "champaign metallic" color (repainted once with fading on top surfaces and some scratches/chips here and there) - Black "embassy" roof (replaced in past) - Minor rust along trunk lip, on lower bottom of passenger rear door, under vinyl top, and along both rear lower quarters (see pics for close-ups) - floors/frame etc all fine - Driver quality chrome/brightwork (some fading on bumpers). NOTE: front bumper was loosened on one side in pics to get missing trim piece back on - do not have missing piece) - Needs trunk lock re-installed (have it in a box) INTERIOR: - All original black cloth interior with no rips/tears in seats or door panels (except minor cracks on driver door panel arm pad) - fabric has some fading - Crack in dash along speaker edge (as almost all 67 Lincolns have) - Original carpet is in good shape - couple of worn spots here and there - Headliner has a couple small holes (where it looks like something poked it) ELECTRICAL: - Car sat for a number of years with prior owner so many of the electrical systems need to be cleaned/attended to - Windows are not working (driver goes down but needs help) - Brake lights/taillights/dash lights not working - Wipers have been disconnected (work but will not stop) - Radio and power ant both work great - Power seat working Overall, this is a terrific, all stock, super straight, LOW mileage, highly-collectible "suicide door" Lincoln that just needs electrical repairs and cosmetic refreshing/restoration to be either a nice driver or great restoration piece (with more work). I just do not have the time to work on this one at this point. Please ask ALL questions BEFORE bidding as the car is NOT 100 percent perfect show piece and is not being held out as such - please feel free to come inspect the car before bidding as the car is sold AS IS with no warranties, express or implied. Given the brake light issue, the car should likely be transported. I am not interested in any trades. Thanks! |

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.
Report: Lincoln getting all of Mercury's ad dollars
Mon, 03 Jan 2011Now that the curtain has closed on Mercury, Ford Motor Company will redirect all of its marketing dollars for the oft-overlooked brand to the Blue Oval's luxury outpost, Lincoln. In speaking to Automotive News, the chairman of the Lincoln National Dealer Council, Bob Tasca, Jr., said, "You'll see a lot stronger presence in the advertising of Lincoln in 2011."
Lincoln spokesperson Christian Bokich reminded AN that the automaker is "preparing the way for seven new or significantly refreshed vehicles" that will be launched over the next four years, and the largest ad blitz in 2011 will focus on the refreshed MKX crossover, as well as the MKZ sedan and its hybrid counterpart. Following that, Lincoln has plans to launch a completely overhauled version of its Navigator SUV, an all-new C-segment vehicle and the overhauled 2013 MKZ, which Tasca says will be "strikingly different from its Ford Fusion sibling."

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.
