Welcome
to the A 1957 Continental Mark II that will Impress You—and Everyone Else! The hand-built 1957 Continental MK IIs are among the most highly sought after luxury classics. This car is a particularly nice example of this limited production coupe that was Ford’s flagship vehicle and resided in a famed Branson, Missouri museum until it was purchased and re-commissioned four years ago: · Nicely Restored · 368 cid/300 hp engine · Great paint/great interior · Air Conditioning · 1 of 444 built For those who like to decode VINs, there is attached a picture of the VIN plate. That number is C56P3572. An Exceptional Example! · Paint and
Chrome This Mark II underwent a high-quality respray in its original Gray Lucite. Its lustrous finish has a deep shine and looks almost showroom-fresh. The chrome and stainless are in excellent condition and nicely compliment the paint. And, the body and underside of the car appear to be free of rust and/or corrosion.
· Interior The seat upholstery is black leather. The front seat was totally redone and the rear seat is in good condition. The door panels are also in very good condition as is the dash. The headliner is in good condition as is the carpeting.
· Engine The engine is the 368 cubic inch V-8 that was rated at 300 hp for the 1957 model. The engine starts right up and provides ample power for this 5,000 lb. ultra-luxury automobile.
· Transmission The transmission is the Turbo-Drive 3-speed automatic. It shifts properly as befits such a car.
· Comfort and
Safety Systems From the leather seats to the all power components (windows, brakes, seat, steering), this air conditioned Mark II is all that you would expect. A couple of minor items will need attention (license light, instrument lights, radio and driver’s vent window).
An Exceptional Example of one
of Ford’s Iconic Continental Mark II hand built Flagship This Mark II is one of the truly collectible luxury cars made in America. Limited in production, these hand-built cars were so special to Ford Motor Company that they were given an entirely new marque: Continental, that were sold exclusively through Lincoln dealers. This is a great example of that seldom-seen marque that will be equally at home at car shows or the country club. It is also a car that is certain to appreciate due to the quality of the construction, the condition of this particular car and the very low production numbers. Stop by and see this rare car or make an appointment for your inspector and/or banker to examine it.

Possible MKX concept teased as Lincoln confirms China expansion
Thu, 17 Apr 2014We've been speculating for years about the future of Lincoln. Some thought that Ford needed to kill the division like it did Mercury, while others saw the sales possibility in a brand with so much history. Ford has finally made a decision, and it wasn't what many people were expecting. Lincoln is launching in China this fall, with the brand rollout starting at the upcoming Beijing Motor Show. A new video hints that we might even get to see the concept for the next-generation MKX.
Lincoln is marketing itself in China as a customer-focused, high-end luxury ownership experience. To prove it, the Lincoln Space in Beijing is meant both as a prototype dealer and a grand show of its plans. The modernist structure looks more like an art museum than a car showroom, and the interior decor is like a high-end hotel lobby. The company says that every dealer is going to have license plate recognition technology that knows when an owner arrives, and there will also be a Personalization Studio where potential buyers can design their car with family. Lincoln is promising to have eight showrooms ready in seven cities by this fall.
Of course, a stylish showroom is nothing without cars to sell. Lincoln is promising five models on sale in China by 2016. The MKZ and MKC launch this fall. A midsize luxury SUV, a fullsize luxury sedan and the Navigator are coming later. All of the models sold there are being imported from North America.
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
Lincoln's second, more traditional, Super Bowl commercial
Sat, 02 Feb 2013For its second Super Bowl commercial, Lincoln Motor Company has stepped away from the Max Ernst-ian surrealism of the "Steer the Script" spot. No Germans, no turtles, no aliens nor alpacas this time, just a 30-second run through the ways in which Lincoln sees the 2013 MKZ as a rebirth of the brand and everything a luxury consumer would want.
The kind of traditional spot that could run any time of year, the only question we had after watching it was: "Wait - was that... Abraham Lincoln?" Along with the press release from Lincoln, you can view the spot below.
If you want a deeper look and criticism into Lincoln's "Steer The Script," ad, have a read of AOL Autos' column: Lincoln's Super Bowl Ad is a Flop, written by Pete Bigelow.
