1989 Lincoln Mark Vii 5.0 H.o., Rat Rod, For Resto, Parts on 2040-cars
Rossville, Illinois, United States
|
This car was a show car/daily driver. I am selling this car because I bought another Hot Rod. This car is in excellent mechanical shape with 50,000 miles on the engine, trans, and rear-end. The engine is a 5.0 H.O. and has the following mechanical specs; 9.5-1 compression ratio, Stock Roller Cam, 65mm throttle body, plenum spacer, Ford Racing push rods, throttle body enhancer, hypo under-drive pulley, Roller rocker arms, after market headers, Ford racing wires, reverse trick flow mufflers, and is rated at 300-350 h.p. (est) Ford Racing 3.73 rear end, shift kit, flex fan. I did have a minor fender bender with it which I fixed. I put a new fender on it , fixed the header, hood and put a new bumper on it. This car would make a perfect rat rod, project car, work or parts car. Loaded with options, most work except, door locks, d/s window (it gets power but wont go up or down.) cruise, power trunk, one power mirror works, the heater/ac console, the air ride suspension has a mind of its own, but has newer air bags, the power brake booster works when it wants, or else works like manual brakes. ABS doesnt work, (I have another master cylinder) cracked windshield, the paint job need to be wet sanded and re-shot with clear, there is some clear chipping off of the paint. Rusting out (mildly) at the bottom of the fenders and need a new ignition switch. The A/C clutch has a weak spring, otherwise, it holds a charge. I am taking the radio and antenna off of it. The doors, hood, and trunk show no signs of rust. The interior door panels are in good shape. I re-dyed the carpeting which needs touch-up, and covered the header, visors and head-liner with a silk-like material. The dash is cracked. The front seats were recently reupholstered. The back seat is in good condition. Rugs are in good condition. The trunk is clean. I have described this car to the best of my ability. I make no warranty or guarantee of this car , implied or otherwise. Car sold as is. This car is drivable. You will have to change the ignition switch or hold on to it or jam it with something to keep it totally on the on position. Please contact me with any questions or additional pics. This car is fun to drive and handles real well and it‘s fast. Also has excellent mid-range and top end. The engine and trans are worth more than I am asking for this car. Buyer is responsible for their own pickup arrangements. |

2013 Lincoln MKZ [w/video]
Fri, 07 Dec 2012Rebranding 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.
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 Navigator facelift only has to last until 2016 replacement
Thu, 21 Aug 2014The Navigator is not only Lincoln's longest-serving nameplate - dating back to 1998 when the final Town Car was introduced - but it's also the oldest model still in the brand's portfolio. The current Navigator arrived on the market in 2007, and underwent a refresh just a few months ago for the 2015 model year. The updates were subtle, but if you're waiting for an all-new model, it's just a couple of years down the road.
According to Automotive News, Lincoln is already working on an all-new replacement for the current, long-serving Navigator, which will be revealed two years from now in the middle of 2016 as a 2017 model. At that point, we're expecting it could switch (alongside the Expedition) to the new aluminum architecture introduced on the Ford F-150, seeing as how the current model is based on the old F-150.
In the meantime, the refreshed Navigator ditches the big 5.4-liter Triton V8 in favor of a more economical 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, and wages war in two wheelbase lengths against the V8-powered competition in the form of the Cadillac Escalade (and Escalade ESV), the Land Cruiser-based Lexus LX and the Infiniti QX80, which is based on the overseas Nissan Patrol.
