1956 Lincoln Continental
Welcome to Down On The Street, where we admire old vehicles found parked on the streets of the Island That Rust Forgot: Alameda, California. It appears that we have a new Ultimate DOTS Neighborhood in Alameda, one that's provided us with the '67 Imperial, the '69 Volvo P1800, the '67 Olds Vista Cruiser, the '70 Lincoln Mark III, plus several cars you haven't seen yet… all in a one-block area! Some are clearly owned by the same lover of old iron, but the whole neighborhood seems to be infected by the glorious madness of vintage machinery.

2010 ford fusion
2010 Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, Lincoln MKZ: Design, Dissected
In case you may have missed it back in 2006, Ford released a trio of entries into the uber-boring mid-size sedan category. The just-right-sized triplets were built with the intention of targeting the best in the appliance segment. Alas, sales fell well short of the leaders of the pack — which is why you may not remember. Fast forward to this past week at the LA Auto Show, where Ford dropped cloth on three redesigns for the 2010 Ford Fusion, 2010 Mercury Milan and the 2010 Lincoln MKZ. While the new look on all three may be a “Bold Move™,” all three cars retain the old Mazda 6-derived CD3 platform. So our question is – are the changes more than skin deep? Let’s find out. More » -

The Fusions two upmarket friends split the hairs of luxury with the Milan going after the Euro-snob luxury buyer who can't afford a Euro-snob nameplate while the Lincoln chases the McCainiacs who want something smaller to replace their 1989 Lincoln Towncars. While both good cars on their own we have to question the wisdom of two cars chasing the luxury market. More » -

2010 Lincoln MKZ: Fusion Plus A Newish Nose
Since platform pals the 2010 Ford Fusion and 2010 Mercury Milan get matching updates, it stands to reason their higher class sibling the 2010 Lincoln MKZ would be getting a visit from Ford's refresh fairies and these are the results. The MKZ gets Lincoln MKS in its Fusion with an appropriation of the new dual-nostril, waterfalling '38 Zephyr grille. As the top-range model in the lineup the MKZ wears the most lavish interior, the smoothest suspension, and the biggest price tag. Read through the press release below and decide for yourself, does the new MKZ provide enough of a upgrade to warrant the additional purchase price? You decide. More » -

Ford To Offer Employee Pricing Plus 0% Financing In Desperate Attempt To Sell Cars
Ford's loss of $129 million last quarter and sinking consumer demand have encouraged the company to combine employee pricing with 0% financing on nine models. So Toyota buyers won't be the only ones Saved By Zero. What's the catch? Zero-percent financing is only available on the company's nine most fuel-efficient vehicles. But here is where it gets complicated. The Employee pricing doesn't apply to the 2009 Ford F-150, but you can get 0% financing on the new F-150. This plan also doesn't include the 2009 Mercury Mariner Hybrid or 2009 Ford Escape Hybrid, two of the most fuel-efficient vehicles. If you were hoping to save money on a Shelby GT500 you're also out of luck. Press release with details below the jump. More »

GMC Truck Plus Lincoln Premiere: Because You Can!
This is Down On The Street Bonus Edition, where we check out interesting street-parked cars located in places other than the Island That Rust Forgot. Say over here you've got a late-50s Lincoln Premiere that's totally wrecked in front, and over there you've got a GMC truck with a bashed-in rear. You could do the boring thing and part them out or something, but the owner of this fine automobile decided to join the two good halves! Sure, it's completely ridiculous, but the workmanship appears to be pretty good and it's most definitely not the same old thing. Delta5 found this truckcar down on the Chicago street; make the jump to read his description. More »

SEMA Getting Hit With Tsunami Of Custom Fords
The pictures are tiny, but Ford is apparently bringing quite a load of customs to the SEMA show in Vegas next week. There's a trio of Lincoln MKS's on the way, a couple of Foci and custom Escapes, a sinister looking Lincoln MKX, and our favorite, a tarted up Ford Transit Connect. Seriously, that thing can't hit the market soon enough; we'll take one with a set of those snazzy racing stripes too. Full details on all these customs in a healthy-sized press release below, and be sure to check out Jalopnik's on-the-ground SEMA coverage next week. More »

A Super Lincoln Zephyr? Shouldn't That Be An MKZ?
Here are some weird spy photos of a hot-rodded Lincoln Zephyr lurking around Dearborn. That's right, a Zephyr and not an MKZ — so what does it mean? This could be an old mule, or perhaps cost cutting efforts at Ford are forcing reuse of old cars they've got laying around. Maybe they've decided to go old-school and drop an Offenhauser high-rise intake manifold on top of that V6. Hey, we can dream right? In either case we think this should be optional body work on the Zephyr because this baby would fit in just fine with our The Ten Scariest-Looking Cars Of All Time list. More » -

2010 Buick LaCrosse Spied, Possibly In Pursuit Of Lincoln MKS
The battle of big American quasi-luxury sedans is heating up as the 2010 Buick LaCrosse nears production. Although this is our best set of spy photos yet, it's still rather silly as the Buick Invicta concept essentially previewed what's hiding under the camo here. As you can see, Buick is taking dead aim at the Lincoln MKS for the coveted role of "car for sexy grandfathers" title. Spy report after the jump. More » -

Lincoln MKT Spotted Testing In Hot Desert Sun
Mercury rising into the 120-degree range wasn't enough to stop the KGP photographers from grabbing a series of up-close photos of the Lincoln MKT doing a bit of extreme weather testing under tire-melting conditions. As reported, the MKT will be getting EcoBoosted with a 3.5-liter V6 good for 340 horsepower and 340 lb-ft of torque. As you'll notice from the photos, the MKT has the glass roof and huge rump from the concept car. More details in the spy report below.

1958 Lincoln: Forget About The Old-Fashioned, Boring '58 Cadillac!
Given 60 years of hindsight, the argument that the '58 Cadillac looked "hardly distinguishable from the rest of the General Motors line" doesn't hold up real well. Still, Lincoln was rolling out the big guns in the ever-escalating chrome-and-gingerbread arms race of late-1950s Detroit with their cars' design. Thanks to SOS10 for the tip!
