 This is a chance someone to own a for extremely rare and famous REAL Classic car. This car is a factory handmade 1940 Lincoln Zepher Continental Convertible. I am sure any Ford expert would tell you how RARE these cars are.  They only made 350 of them in 1940. 

I am selling my 1940 Lincoln Zepher Continental Convertible. The car just reeks TOP CLASS and belongs in a car collection to be admired.  (This car really belongs in a car collection like Jay Lenos' or a collection that its "class" is going considerable upgrade it. It definitely would upgrade any collection !)  I restore antique cars, but am a driver- restorer.  My cars in my collection are driven and maybe shown once in a while.  This car is too valuable and rare for my taste and restoration. The car needs restoration but is remarkable condition for it's age.  What is for sale is the combination of two Lincoln convertibles (one a bit more rusty than the other). 

Most of the parts of sheet metal on the car that have rust have been reproduced. There is a new dash, two sets of top irons, two steering columns and steering wheels, complete interior (if not then there is at least 97% there), the Columbia rear end, four doors, fenders that are practically rust free and two practically rust free hoods, bumpers and a ton of interior parts and exterior parts, etc. 

In other words, at least two of just about everything. Or about four of the things you would need two of!

I want to sell the Lincoln, but I'm going to be perfectly honest about Lorane (the name my family gave to the Lincoln). The car is a restores dream.  It will be fairly easy to restore (been there and done that), but it will not be able to done on a shoestring.  A car of this quality and fame will require the top of line no matter what has to be done. But it will well worth the investment !  This year Lincoln is extremely rare and valuable !

Don't insult me with low ballers, please.  I know what the car is worth.

Now, before I get a bunch of Ford people calling me about the Lincolns history I want everyone to know that what I know about the car is what I've been told and have not done a bunch of research on the car.

Any questions call me at 815-351-6655.

2013 Lincoln MKZ [w/video]

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

Rebranding When Reinvention Is Requisite
Lincoln - pardon us, the Lincoln Motor Company - assures us that Ford is committed to its success. The awkwardness of the statement (which feels vaguely like your mother telling you that she loves and supports you regardless of what everyone else thinks) was hard to escape when we recently spent a few days with the all-new second-generation 2013 Lincoln MKZ.
Launched earlier this year at the 2012 New York Auto Show, the MKZ is a midsize premium sedan that shares platforms with the Ford Fusion (also all-new for 2013). The sedan's primary competitors, according to Lincoln, include the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, Cadillac CTS and Lexus ES Series sedans - each an established, accomplished player.

Lincoln MKC crossover headed for Detroit

Wed, 19 Dec 2012

Fresh 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.

Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion

Thu, 11 Sep 2014

We all had to see this coming. Conan O'Brien has released a parody of Matthew McConaughey's new ads for the 2015 Lincoln MKC and remixed them with lines from one of his most critically acclaimed recent roles.
The now much darker commercial probably isn't how Lincoln would prefer the MKC to be marketed, but really in a few of the actual ads, McConaughey already seems moments away from breaking into a full Rustin Cohle from True Detective impression. The cadence and tone of his voice are just so close to that character, especially in the one where he's talking to the bull standing in the middle of the road. It very nearly verges on parody anyway; Conan is just turning all of this up to 11.
It's a little surprising that the writers didn't dig a little deeper into the McConaughey oeuvre for the parody. Maybe McConaughey could have taken the MKC for a party at the Moon Tower from Dazed and Confused. In any case, it's worth a quick watch, so check it out.
