Up for sale is an immaculate 1979 Lincoln Continental Mk5 fully bagged and in a perfect black on black paint and interior combination. This epic 19 foot or 5.8 meter land yacht is quite possibly the longest and the last of the massive 2 door America cars. As the absolute epitome of luxury in its day, the Mk5 is one of the most comfortable and highly factory optioned cars America ever produced. From the signature Cartier clock, to the walnut dash and steering wheel inlays, the ridiculously comfortable double padded leather seats and every power option imaginable, driving this rolling palace always leaves a smile on your face.

This gorgeous one owner all original example has been garage kept and a cozy 72 degrees almost its whole life, and has not seen a drop of rain since 1982! Needless to say this is a completely rust free car as evident by its showroom quality perfectly straight original black paint.

For the ultimate cruiser feel, and because this massive car just looks so sweet laid flat on the ground, the Lincoln has been fitted with a custom Air Ride Tech air bag kit. Starting with a Big Red solenoid kit to cope with the impressive 5,042 pound or 2.3 ton curb weight of the Mk5, a pair of 5 gallon tanks and twin compressors give you full adjustability through the RidePro digital control system. Helping the Continental get that perfect slammed stance are a set of 14x7 Zenith wire wheels with real knock-offs.

Both compressors and tanks are custom fitted in the trunk along with components from the new custom sound system. Only the best JL Audio components were used, including a pair of W6 10 inch subwoofers in a custom wrapped box to match the trunk and a pair of 300/4 amplifiers. On the dash replacing the factory stereo is a Kenwood head unit. 

With only 49,000 miles on the all original 6.6L 400CI Cleveland v8 engine, this strip and show cruiser has many more years to give. This is your chance to own an absolute crowd pleaser, guaranteed to get smiles and thumbs up from anyone you pass, this timeless classic really has to be seen to be appreciated. Whether it be the arrow straight roads of the high desert, or a nostalgia festival in car crazy Scandinavia, to a traditional lowrider show at Mooneyes Tokyo, this pristine 1979 Lincoln Continental Mk5 is an absolute joy to drive.

Please feel free to call me for any more information. (408) 930-8959

Lincoln says MKZ supply crisis over

Mon, 25 Mar 2013

After an excessive number of recalls on the 2013 Escape and Fusion, we can't really fault Ford for being a little extra cautious with the launch of the 2013 Lincoln MKZ. Last month, we reported that dealer supply of the car was extremely limited due to more attention being paid to quality checks of cars rolling off the assembly line, which led to a 73-percent drop in MKZ sales from last year on top of a 32-year low in monthly sales for Lincoln in January.
The reason for the delay was that the sedans were being shipped from the Hermosillo, Mexico assembly plant to be inspected even closer at Ford's Flat Rock, Michigan plant before they were able to head to dealers. Things seem to be straightening out for Lincoln and the MKZ's production now, as Automotive News is reporting that supply should be up to a "normal level" by the end of this month.

2015 Lincoln MKC priced from $33,995* [w/poll]

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

Looking to build on the momentum it struggled to establish with the MKZ, Lincoln recently unveiled the production version of its all-new MKC last month at the LA Auto Show. With a proven platform shared with the Ford Escape and striking design, the 2015 Lincoln MKC goes on sale next summer ready to take on the ever-expanding world of luxury compact crossovers. Breaking into this new segment, Lincoln has priced the MKC aggressively as one of the least-expensive offerings in its class, starting at $33,995 (*including destination charges).
At that price, the 2015 MKC costs a little bit more than a fully loaded 2014 Ford Escape Titanium and is just slightly less costly than the Acura RDX and Volvo XC60. More importantly, it's thousands less than Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes GLK-Class. The MKC will be offered in three trim levels for now - there is still no more information about Lincoln's new Black Label products - ranging from the base Premiere up to the range-topping Reserve.
The Premiere will come standard with features like active grille shutters, push-button start, remote start, dual-zone climate control and heated front seats, while the midgrade Select starts at $37,225 and adds upgraded 18-inch wheels, ambient lighting, daytime running lights and a steering wheel featuring Wollsdorf leather. The top-shelf Reserve trim level starts at $40,930 and brings even more luxury features including the panoramic roof, navigation, cooled front seats and wifi access.
