1970 Lincoln Mark Iii Exceptional Condition In/out And Ready To Drive Anywhere on 2040-cars
Shelbyville, Tennessee, United States

I am offering one of my four personal Lincoln Mark III's for sale. It is very difficult to chose which one to sell as I love each one of them for slightly different reasons which have nothing to do with condition, as each one is truly exceptional, but relates to my personal attachment to each. Being a car person my entire life, it becomes all too easy to collect up more than you have room to physically accommodate and so I find myself trying to cut back a sniff as I have recently accumulated a few vintage 4WD's. This particular Mark, which I refer to as "Roy", was originally owned by the Lincoln Dealer who ordered it new and kept it until his death when it then passed to his son. I searched the entire country, and I mean every single state, when I was buying these cars up and chose this one because of it's history and exceptional condition inside, outside, and mechanically. This car could easily be driven cross country and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere I had gas money to go as it needs nothing. If time had permitted I would have flown to Washington and driven him home as I find myself looking for reasons to drive anywhere in one and always wish for a few more miles before getting home. I have personally driven it over 5000 miles since owning and that includes both summer and winter driving. Every last option on this car functions factory new from the electric antenna to the hide-away headlights, which will stay closed indefinitely and that is rare. The Automatic Temperature Control knows exactly when to change from A/C to Heat and the optional Rear Window Defogger works perfectly. The Factory Cruise Control sets and holds the speed perfectly and the with the tilt wheel and 6 way power seats(driver and passenger), you can cruise down the road in extreme comfort. The steering is tight and responsive and the brakes stop perfectly so driving this baby is a dream. The only items that do not work are the two small rear quarter windows. As seen in the pictures, I have changed out the original 15 inch steel wheels and hubcaps for a slightly different look but will be including the original wheels/hubcaps with the sale. The trunk and engine compartment are both in the same exceptional condition as the entire car and the spare tire is brand new. The interior presents as nearly new and there are no rips or tears anywhere to be found. The rear seat has rarely seen a butt and every ash tray is virgin. The original Calvary Twill vinyl roof is just about perfect and like most of these with original roofs still in place, it adds a formal look that no other can compare. These Lincoln Mark III's were absolutely one of the finest cars ever engineered/built by any auto maker and owning/driving them is one of life's greatest pleasures in a car. While these beautiful cars came in a wide range of colors, it is very hard to find any color with more class than White with Black. Take a look at the many pictures and feel free to call david @ 931.639.3926 with any specific questions you may have. Fly in and Drive home. This car is represented honestly/accurately as it sits this moment but there is no warranty or guarantee expressed or implied.

2015 Lincoln MKC
Mon, 09 Jun 2014Back in 2012, Lincoln claimed its comeback bid was finally underway with the new-for-2013 MKZ. But don't you believe them - the renaissance won't actually begin in earnest until the shapely compact crossover seen here reaches showrooms in big numbers. That's because while the four-door MKZ was indeed a proper step toward rebirth, the 2015 MKC is the first wholly conceived vehicle under Lincoln as a standalone brand, a move first announced back in 2012.
That's an important distinction, because Lincoln's newfound emancipation from Ford's design and development processes has given the struggling marque both the corporate wherewithal and the will to develop a more fully formed product. The four-wheeled result seen here is a surprisingly cohesive luxury CUV, one with significantly more aesthetic and dynamic separation from its Ford Escape sibling than the MKZ and its Fusion counterpart. Said another way, after flogging Lincoln's latest for hundreds of miles over canyon roads outside of Santa Barbara, we've come to understand that this is far from a re-grilled Dearborn special with luxury tinsel - it's a bona fide standalone product that readily displays the sort of clear differentiation seen in platform cousins like the Audi Q5 and the Volkswagen Tiguan. It's the real deal.
One more Lincoln MKX concept teaser drops before Beijing
Fri, 18 Apr 2014If the teaser video for Lincoln's launch of a new concept at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show wasn't enough for you, the company has now released a shadowy new image on its Twitter page. The vehicle may be a concept for the next-generation MKX, and its launch in China is part of the huge rollout to sell the brand's models there.
The latest photo shows off the concept's lighting, including LED running lights and lit sideview mirrors. The sharp edges of the lights give some hints to its shape. However, Other than clearly being a crossover, not much else is known.
The concept's launch supports Lincoln breaking into the Chinese market. It will begin selling the MKZ and MKC there this fall, as well as a midsize luxury SUV. A fullsize luxury sedan and the Navigator will come later. The company will also build luxury showrooms for the models that will look more like high-end hotel lobbies than car dealers. Scroll down to watch the teaser video.
Lincoln MKC crossover headed for Detroit
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Fresh off the launch of the stylish new MKZ sedan, the newly named Lincoln Motor Company is reportedly preparing for a lineup expansion. According to TheDetroitBureau.com, the first new product joining the Lincoln brand is a small crossover based on the Ford Escape said to be called the MKC. We saw this machine testing a few months ago, and while we were hoping the name might be reserved for a future two-door model or even the diminutive Concept C hatchback, it looks like the "C" will stand for compact crossover instead.
The report also says that this crossover will be making its debut next month at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, so we'll have to wait until then to see what the new model looks like. Unlike the MKX, which is based off the Ford Edge, we would expect there to be a lot more differentiation between the MKC and the Escape like Ford managed to do with the newest Fusion and MKZ.
In addition to the new MKC, the article states new MKS and Navigator designs are expected to debut by 2014.
