Who among us does not have a Pinto or a Bobcat story? After all, in just ten years over 2,600,000 Pintos were sold, and then there were another 215,000 Bobcats sold during its six years of production. Indeed, a Ford enthusiast in the Syracuse area told me that she was born in a Pinto!...literally, during a snowstorm which made roads impassable. What a great way to start one's life...in one of America's most popular cars ever! LOVEfords spotlights the reliable, economical, and stylish 1978 Ford Pinto and Mercury Bobcat.

That's what Ed Kitzhofer tells us, anyhow. Take a look his 1955 Lincoln. See how LOVEfords got in the way of The Crusher's plans for it.

A  tax collector's receipt for a 1961 automobile registration and the  Thunderbird it describes. Remarkable? No. After all, there were over 73,000 Thunderbirds built in 1961, and there were millions of cars registered in Texas that year. However, what is remarkable is that the same person listed as the owner on the receipt still owns that beautiful car....today!
As smart as they come....
 ...as smooth as they go!

This is how Homer Heller Ford of Escondido, California looked in 1967. The large "Ford" script sign at the right is not the normally-seen Ford Motor Company logo, but nonetheless makes a positive first impression for this dealership. A Diamond Blue Thunderbird 4-door Landau is parked in front, possibly waiting for its new owner to drive it home today. And a Falcon pokes its nose into the picture at the far right.

Don Emmett is happy. He just paid a visit to a Lincoln-Mercury dealer.

You're invited to take a LOVEfords-look at some Ford, Edsel, Lincoln-Mercury, Ford Truck, and Ford Tractor dealerships from years gone by. Are any of them still operating today? Most of the dealership pictures come from the Ford Motor Company 1961 Annual Report. They give you an idea of the way dealerships used to look; the cars, trucks, and tractors were brand-new and ready to become just a few more reasons to LOVEfords

Click here to see the 1959 Lincolns and Mark IV Continentals Classic beauty, unexcelled craftsmanship, and dignified prestige. Just three of the reasons why Lincoln is not only the most outstanding motorcar of our generation, but a genuinely wise investment as well.

Of course, all Lincoln-built motorcars are equipped with Lincoln's exclusive power steering, power brakes, dual-range automatic transmission and Uniframe construction. When one considers the value of these motoring refinements and the many other built-in Lincoln features, it is even more obvious that Lincoln is, indeed, a most judicious choice for the discerning buyer.

Be it 1963 or 2004, few other cars have the look, the glamour, the mystique or the desirability of a Lincoln Continental...especially a convertible.

The Continental Magazine was published exclusively for members of this privileged-owners club, sent to their mailbox every two months.

In February, 1963 one of the lead articles focused on the history of the Continental convertible and its place in the motoring world of present.

Here is that story, word-for-word, exactly as the Continental owner of the day saw it: "Lure of the 'Touring Cars" ...by Burgess H. Scott.
