1978 Lincoln Mark V Up for Auction With NO RESERVE 81K original miles, 460 V8. Rare color combination with burgundy vinyl quarter top and burgundy padded trunk. Options include power moonroof, functional "miles to empty" digital display (a pretty expensive option in 1978), AM/FM cassette player, tilt steering wheel and remote trunk release. I am the the second owner, I have the original owner's warranty card as seen in the photo. Mechanical: I have done a handful of things and they sure do add up. The major things I've done were a new radiator and full exhaust system, the Lincoln is remarkably quiet considering the size of the engine. I've also done a full tuneup, new disc brake pads all around, new front rotors, and had the a/c charged up last spring. The previous owner replaced the compressor and retrofitted the a/c to modern freon. I've fixed alot of smaller things; I got the cruise control working, fixed the headlight doors (which would stay open, now they close when the headlights are off) and fixed the horn. The a/c worked great all summer but seemed to need a charge by September. The steering has begun to feel a bit loose, my mechanic told me it's the "rag joint", about an $180 job. The Lincoln appears high in the back because the air shocks were over-inflated when I took the pix. I've had a few Lincoln Mark V's and this one is by far runs the best. It's very quiet and when you're stopped at a light you don't even feel the engine. Cosmetics: the interior is very nice, the burgundy leather is original and showing some age cracking in the driver's seat as seen in the pix. Otherwise everything inside is in great shape, the dash, door panels, carpet, headliner, visors and moonroof shade are close to perfect. Window motors, headlight doors, and power moonroof work perfectly. The original Ford AM/FM cassette player works properly as well as the power antenna. The clock does not work but I am including an entire replacement dash cluster with a working clock that I bought on Ebay ($270). It's not hard to swap out the clock, I just haven't gotten around to it. The moonroof does not leak at all, even in heavy rain or a car wash. The moonroof is huge, almost feels like a convertible when you've got it fully open. The previous owner tinted the windows; it looks nice with the white paint but is nicked in a few spots. The weatherstripping around the windows and in the trunk was replaced by the previous owner. When you're on the highway with the windows up you can't hear any road noise, it's nice and quiet inside. The paint is original but is still very presentable as seen in the pix. Some slight bubbling in the paint in a couple of spots, only visible up close. The vinyl on the roof and trunk are pretty good, the padded trunk vinyl is showing some age but I've kept it garaged and applied Armor All and it's held up well. The body is very straight, never hit or had any bodywork anywhere, the doors close easily (the last Mark V I had required a really hard slam or the doors would only partly latch) and the bumpers are shiny, no dents or peeling anywhere. Everything lines up perfectly on this car, which is great on a car with such straight body lines. She is a total blast to drive! The power from the 460 V8 is a pleasure, the last Mark I had came with the 400 V8 and the difference between the 400 and the 460 is substantial. Cruises nicely on the highway and brakes evenly with the four wheel disc brakes. She starts on the first try even in cold weather, idles perfectly and the suspension is luxurious. Drives overall like an American classic luxury cruiser should. No leaks from anywhere, garage floor always dry when I pull her out. I'm only selling the Lincoln due to financial constraints, I've got a lot of money invested in the car. I hope to find her a good home. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Lincoln is for sale locally and I'm open to reasonable buy it now offers as well. I
can assist with shipping in the USA or internationally if necessary,
cost of shipping to paid by buyer. If you need it I can recommend a door
to door auto shipper I've used many times in the past; they're
professional, reliable and have great rates. This is a NO RESERVE auction, top bidder gets her! Classic Lincoln which will only appreciate in value! Any questions feel free to call or email. 914-224-3230 |

2015 Lincoln Navigator gets lots of updates, still not all-new [w/video]
Thu, 06 Feb 2014If there's one brand that could really use some fresh, all-new product, it's Lincoln. The MKC crossover is on the way and looks promising, but the just-revealed 2015 model year update of its fullsize Navigator would appear to stop somewhere short of being "all-new." This, despite replacing a product that's been on the market since 2007. Oh sure, there's a brash new face, complete with the company's love or hate split-wing grille, and the revised rear-end treatment does look better to our eyes (if overly familiar). But in the era of the bold new all-aluminum Ford F-150, the Navigator is still based on the outgoing model's all-steel bones, so it's more of an extensive mid-cycle refresh than a completely new piece.
Unlike the F-150, there's no aluminum suit on this black-tie bruiser
That's a shame, really, because the class the Navigator is playing in features a host of really modern, stylish, luxurious crossovers and sport utilities like the Cadillac Escalade, Land Rover Range Rover, Mercedes-Benz GL-Class and more. Unlike the F-150, there's no aluminum suit on this black-tie bruiser, but that's not to say it isn't bringing some new tech to the table in 2015. Under the hood, for example, is Ford's well-received 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6, putting out "at least" 370 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque. That's a solid engine, and should be a whole lot more spunky and efficient than the archaic 5.4-liter Triton V8 currently being employed in the outgoing model.
2015 Lincoln MKC priced from $33,995* [w/poll]
Mon, 16 Dec 2013Looking to build on the momentum it struggled to establish with the MKZ, Lincoln recently unveiled the production version of its all-new MKC last month at the LA Auto Show. With a proven platform shared with the Ford Escape and striking design, the 2015 Lincoln MKC goes on sale next summer ready to take on the ever-expanding world of luxury compact crossovers. Breaking into this new segment, Lincoln has priced the MKC aggressively as one of the least-expensive offerings in its class, starting at $33,995 (*including destination charges).
At that price, the 2015 MKC costs a little bit more than a fully loaded 2014 Ford Escape Titanium and is just slightly less costly than the Acura RDX and Volvo XC60. More importantly, it's thousands less than Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes GLK-Class. The MKC will be offered in three trim levels for now - there is still no more information about Lincoln's new Black Label products - ranging from the base Premiere up to the range-topping Reserve.
The Premiere will come standard with features like active grille shutters, push-button start, remote start, dual-zone climate control and heated front seats, while the midgrade Select starts at $37,225 and adds upgraded 18-inch wheels, ambient lighting, daytime running lights and a steering wheel featuring Wollsdorf leather. The top-shelf Reserve trim level starts at $40,930 and brings even more luxury features including the panoramic roof, navigation, cooled front seats and wifi access.
2015 Lincoln Navigator ready to roll for $62,475*
Wed, 21 May 2014Fancy 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.
