Ellison and His Yellow 1937 Lincoln K Judkins
Quality, rarity, and history—these are the factors that make car collecting both a challenge and a delight for John Ellison. Fortunately for him, his unique 1937 Lincoln K Judkins is one such masterpiece that has all three traits. Handled with due care and restored to its optimal condition by its previous owner, Ellison’s model is a quite the beauty to behold. This limousine is an extraordinary find on its own, with only 265 ever produced, but what makes this yellow Lincoln especially fascinating is the story that comes with it.
FBF: Up in the Air
"As one of the world’s largest metropolitan areas, New York City has been photographed millions of times over. Its impossibly high skyscrapers, its distinct neighborhoods, and its famous attractions make the city any photographer’s dream.

TBT: Lincoln's Founding Father
"Edsel’s vision extended far beyond the assembly line; to credit him as only an industrial leader would be selling him short. Edsel had an eye for design, craftsmanship, and beauty.

The Lincoln Navigator has a new concept car making the rounds, and it made a big impression with the editors over at Top Gear. Drawing inspiration from sailing and yachting, the Navigator concept is quite big, a standard size SUV rather than a crossover or compact, and while the vehicle you’ll see in the image below is the concept previewing the 2017 Navigator production model, it unfortunately won’t come with the gullwing doors seen below.

Audio Psychology Explains the Importance of Revel Audio
The new Lincoln MKX features premium sound systems by Revel, including the available 19-speaker Revel Ultima.
Revel Ultima uses point source architecture to make the cabin of your car melt away into the acoustics of a broad concert hall. Integrated Clari-Fi software brings life back to compressed audio files as they play, and each speaker is crafted to "disappear" into the music -- recreating sound exactly as it was recorded with minimal diffraction.
