Rare 1979 Lincoln Collector's Series Mark V With NO RESERVE Rare Collector's Series with 84k original miles, 400 V8. Options include quarter windows that lower and raise before main window, tilt steering wheel, remote trunk release and automatic dimming headlights. Mechanical: since I've had the Lincoln I've done a recent full tuneup, radiator hoses and water pump, new brakes, new tires and new shocks all around. I had the a/c retrofitted for modern freon, it blows nice and cold. The engine is smooth, you don't feel the car running when you're stopped at a light and the transmission shifts perfectly. The driver's power seat will need a new switch, the dash lights quit a few months ago and the headlight doors raise after the car has been parked for a couple of hours. I bought the Lincoln about two years ago with the intention of making her perfect but now I'm selling her due to financial constraints, I've got over $7k invested. Cosmetics: the interior is decent, no tears on the seats and the dash and door panels are in good condition. The moonroof was installed by the previous owner and is fixed in place, the headliner needs to be reinstalled, it's in the trunk.The vinyl top and padding on the trunk are in good shape, one small tear on the trunk vinyl not visible in the pix, the opera light lens on the driver's side will need to be replaced. The paint is original but still shines up well. The chrome on the bumpers shines up nicely, no dull spots, dents or peeling anywhere. Engine starts easily, cruises nicely on the highway, holds the road effortlessly with no wandering. Runs very strong and brakes evenly with the four wheel disc brakes, no pulling or fading. She idles perfectly, shifts smoothly, stops easily and the suspension is luxurious. Drives overall like a classic American luxury cruiser should, it handles well considering its size. All directional/brake/turn signal/headlights, wipers and cruise control all work. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Lincoln is for sale locally and I'm open to reasonable buy it now offers as well, I'm a motivated seller. I can assist with shipping in the USA or internationally if necessary, cost of shipping to paid by buyer. If you need it I can recommend a door to door auto shipper I've used many times in the past; they're professional, reliable and have great rates. This is a NO RESERVE auction, top bidder gets her! Nice classic Lincoln which will only appreciate in value! Any questions feel free to call or email. 914-224-3230 |

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.
Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
