My dad found this car, as is, in barn in North Pole, Alaska in 1979. It's been driven maybe 500 miles since then. The car has new Coker white walls on it. This car is a driver. By that I mean rebuild the engine, which is tired. And do a clutch job and the interior, which is rough, if you wish and enjoy this car. Or you could do a frame off, spend 90K on a car that might be worth 35K when your done. You do the math. Car is complete less one piece of Crome which we might still have. Just can't find it yet. Car has some rust in the floor pans. The drivers side has a sheet of galvanized pop riveted under the carpet that didn't even know was there until this week. See the pics. Original power train. V12 with 3 spd. and automatic OD. Hyd. pwr. windows. Car shows 29k on the odometer which I believe to be rolled over. Car has been in a climate controlled shop and covered since 1979 and well cared for. I know if dad was still here, he'd want someone to continue caring for it the way he did. This car is affordable so bid to buy. It is also for sale locally so I reserve the right to end this auction prior to its completion. Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements  and expenses. I'll try and provide more info if you have more questions. Car will not leave my possession until funds are verified.

Lincoln bringing in MKZ Hybrid over rollaway risk

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Federal safety standards require that every new car needs to have the brake depressed in order to shift it out of Park. But the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has found fault in the transmission range sensor on certain examples of the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid, allowing the car to be shifted out of Park without first depressing the brake. The fear is that with this condition, affected vehicles may be unintentionally pulled out of Park, resulting in a possible rollaway. That safety concern has prompted parent Ford Motor Company to issue a recall.
The issue pertains to 7,153 examples of the MKZ Hybrid built between April 26, 2012 and September 24, 2013, covering the 2013 and 2014 model years. As a result, Ford will notify owners to bring their MKZs into their local Lincoln dealer to have the Powertrain Control Module software updated in order to rectify the problem. See the full recall notice below for details.

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.
