No Reserve Auction. If you have less than 25 feedback please do not bid unless you contact us by phone first. Bid only if you intend to pay for the car should you be the high bidder. PLEASE READ THE TOTAL DESCRIPTION This auction is for a 1966 Lincoln Continental Suicide 4 Door Convertible. This is a project car but very worthy of being done. The prior owner had the car for many years. He took it off the road in the early 1990's to do a complete restoration. The motor and transmission were removed to be redone. Somewhere along the line the transmission went missing so everything was put on hold. We do have most of the 462 motor. The block was hot tanked, cleaned and new freeze plugs installed. We have the crank, pistons, cam shaft, both heads, some of the valves and springs, intake and carb, oil pan, starter, power steering unit, etc. I did not see the valve covers. No transmission but we do have the drive shaft. No radiator. The interior in the car is in real decent shape. Dash is amazing, seats are not beat up, just typical light leather cracking. Door panels are in great shape, visors are nice. Even the carpets are decent, just need a good shampooing to get the musty smell out. The convertible top is intact but has shrunk from age and will need to be replaced. The car came optioned with Power Steering, Power Front Disc Brakes, Tilt Steering Wheel, Power Seat, Power Windows and Power Convertible Top. All the glass is good with the exception of the front windshield which is cracked. The dual exhaust system looks to be in good solid shape also. The body on the car is fairly respectable. Real straight down both sides, doors open and close great, there is some minor rust on the bottom of both front fenders behind the rocker moldings, couple of small spots on the nose, a little behind the rear doors and both lower rear quarters at the very bottoms. Looks like a fairly easy fix. The underside of the car is very solid. Floors, Rockers, frame, braces and trunk pan are all good and solid. Rear opening deck lid and deck flap are solid. Over all, a good basic structure to work with. Make it original ,resto mod ,or make it your own.The motor and all parts are included if you want them. They would all fit in the trunk for shipping. There are a lot of sedans and other big Ford donor vehicles to be had reasonable if you want to go with a different drive line. We have the last Maine registration and proper dealer transfer forms for a smooth transaction. Car can be stored for a reasonable amount of time if you need to make shipping arrangements but car needs to be paid for within 3 days of auctions end. Selling at no reserve so please be serious in your bidding. If you need more info or pics feel free to email or call us at 1-207-324-5568 Days or 1-207-432-2862 Eves and Sundays. |

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks
Sun, 31 Mar 2013Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.
Ford recalling 850,000 cars and SUVs for airbag issues
Fri, 26 Sep 2014Ford has announced a major recall of 850,000 vehicles from model years 2013 and 2014 due to a problem with the "restraints control module."
According to Ford, a short circuit could develop in the module, causing the airbag warning light to illuminate. In more severe cases, dependent on where the short develops, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners may not work in the event of an accident. The problems can be more wide-ranging than that, too, as systems that rely on information from the control module, such as the stability control can be affected.
With 850,000 vehicles affected, it's no surprise that some of Ford's volume leaders are covered. That includes the Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans, as well as the incredibly recall-prone Escape and the C-Max MPV.
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.
