As recently as April 13 &14, I drove the Continental on a weekend trip  from San Francisco to Sacramento to Napa Valley, and back to San Francisco!  That is just about 200 miles roundtrip!

The car ran amazing, and performed reliably, with ZERO issues!  I still have the bug splatter on the windshield to prove it!  


I am the 3rd owner of the car.  The car spent its life in Colorado with the 2 previous owners.  Appears to be stored away and never driven in snow or inclement weather. Appears to be indoor stored car. However, it is not a show car by any means.  It is a driver.  It has a couple dents, a few scratches, and is far from perfect.  Sometime in the ‘90’s the car received a refresh.  It has been repainted and the convertible top was replaced.  I cannot pinpoint the dates, as I have NO Maintenance History on the car.  


No Rust.  Straight body.  


I am not a dealer.  I am selling a few cars from my modest collection this Spring in efforts to raise capital for a Porsche of equal vintage.  The car is being sold WITHOUT RESERVE!


If you are local, I encourage you to inspect the car in person!  It is located in Daly City, CA 94015.  Shoot me an email and we can arrange a time for you to see this beauty.


PAYMENT INFO


$ 2,000.00 Deposit required after within 48 hours of auction end.  Remaining balance to be paid in full within 7 days.  No exceptions.

Ford's Galhotra succeeds Farley as head of Lincoln

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Ford Motor Company is announcing a major personnel shakeup that could have a dramatic effect on the future of the Lincoln division. Kumar Galhotra (pictured above), currently vice president of engineering at Ford for all of its vehicles worldwide, is taking over as the president of the luxury brand on September 1, replacing Jim Farley. The automaker is also hiring a new head of advanced engineering.
Galhotra has a huge job ahead of him as the new boss of Lincoln worldwide, overseeing product development, marketing, sales and service. His task is to turn the luxury division into a world-class brand as quickly as possible, and he reports directly to Ford President and CEO Mark Fields.
"These changes underscore our commitment to build on the success of our One Ford plan by accelerating our pace of progress. They also make clear we are serious about Lincoln as a world-class luxury brand and that product excellence and innovation are what will deliver growth and define our entire company going forward," said Fields in the company's announcement.

Why Lincoln says it's loving Ellen and Conan MKC ad spoofs [w/videos]

Mon, 13 Oct 2014

You would think that commercial being ridiculed across the Internet would be an advertising executive's worst nightmare, but that's not necessarily the case. At least not when it comes to Lincoln and its latest campaign to promote the new MKC.
The campaign features Matthew McConaughey channeling his characters from True Detective and The Lincoln Lawyer, and was quickly spoofed by both Conan O'Brien and Ellen DeGeneres. But instead of shaking their heads in dismay at the comedy talk-show hosts' take on their ad, Lincoln and its advertising firm Hudson Rouge welcome the free publicity.
"We're flattered. Just to get out into the public mind with parodies says you've achieved a certain amount of notoriety," Hudson Rouge CCO Jon Pearce told Automotive News. "It's hard to put a dollar amount on earned media. We couldn't ask for better."

2015 Lincoln Navigator ready to roll for $62,475*

Wed, 21 May 2014

Fancy picking up a refreshed Lincoln Navigator? Well, prepare to shell out at least $62,475. That's a whopping increase of $6,310 for the now-EcoBoost-equipped SUV.
That's just for the two-wheel-drive Select model, though. Want to drive all four wheels? Better have an extra $3,575 laying around. Snagging the top-of-the-line Reserve model, meanwhile, demands a premium of $7,500.
For those extra bills, you'll net Lincoln Drive Control, complete with continuously controlled dampers, power running boards, Ziricote wood interior trim, upgraded leather, 22-inch wheels, a "unique" interior headliner and, of course, a "Reserve" badge.
