Customized by Caponez Kustomz out of Denver, Colorado. Do an internet search on them, they do some cool cars.
Black on black '64 Lincoln Continental with all original interior. Exterior is not the original color, but is a
beautiful glossy black.
The chrome trim does show signs of wear. There is a dent in the rear left bumper end cap.
The tail-lights have been replaced and tinted. Dashboard is also tinted. All gauges work fine, however the gas
gauge sometimes acts up.
I drive this almost daily, I keep it tuned and it starts right up every time. Drives and glides beautifully. There
are no issues with the transmission or engine, it purrs!
AC is working, not ice cold, but it does work.
This was customized to be a Presidential Edition, with the Presidential seal instead of the Lincoln logos on the
side panels behind the passenger door windows. These can also be found on the trunk and between the rear seats.
Hood emblem has been replaced with a '64 Kennedy emblem and the grille changed to a match the limousine of the
infamous Kennedy Lincoln.
There is limo tint on all windows with the exception of the windshield.
The trunk is lined with rhino liner, but no carpet was installed.
All keyholes have been shaved, including the trunk. The trunk has a push release button hidden in the ashtray.
Lowered with a 4" drop for a more aggressive stance.
Original stock rims with hubcaps plastidipped, which can be easily removed.
Power windows are a little sluggish, but they all work.
The engine has been painted.
Underside has been sprayed with protective coating.
All in all, this is a great car, a real head turner.

What will the next Presidential limo look like?
Thu, 25 Jul 2013With recent news that the Secret Service has begun soliciting proposals for a new armored limousine, we've been wondering what the next presidential limo might look like. The current machine, nicknamed "The Beast", has a design based on a car that's no longer sold: the Cadillac DTS. If General Motors gets the job again, which wouldn't be a surprise considering the government still owns a chunk of the company, the next limo's shape would likely resemble the new XTS (below, left). But Cadillac hasn't always been the go-to car company for presidential whips.
Lincoln has actually provided far more presidential limousines throughout history than Cadillac. In fact, the first car modified for Commander-in-Chief-carrying duty was a 1939 Lincoln K-Series called "Sunshine Special" used by Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the last Lincoln used by a president was a 1989 Town Car ordered for George H.W. Bush. If President Obama wanted a Lincoln today, it would likely be an amalgam of the MKS sedan and MKT crossover, as illustrated above.
And what about Chrysler? The only record we could find of a President favoring the Pentastar is Nixon, who reportedly ordered two limos from the company during his administration in the '70s, and then another one, known today as the "K-Car limo," in the '80s after he left office. Obama, however, has a personal - if modest - connection to Chryslers, having owned a 300 himself before he took office. A 300-based Beast (above, right) would certainly earn the U.S. some style points.
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.
