THIS VEHICLE IS ONE OF THE NICEST DRIVING CONTINENTAL'S I HAVE EVER OWNED.
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AND IT ALREADY HAD AN EXCELLENT PAINT JOB AND MINT ORIGINAL INTERIOR.
IT DID NOT RUN WHEN I PICKED IT UP & HAD BEEN SITTING IN A GARAGE IN BEVERLY HILLS FOR OVER 5 YEARS.
PREVIOUS OWNER HAD A NICE COLLECTION OF CARS AND HAD MAINTAINED THIS LINCOLN COVERED IN HIS GARAGE. BUT THEN HE GOT OLDER AND COULDN'T KEEP UP.

***COMES WITH A BOOK WITH ALL MY RECEIPTS & I HAVE MANY PICTURES OF MY WORK
THIS VEHICLE HAS SAT IN THE GARAGE MOST OF IT'S LIFE, WHICH IS WHY I HAD MORE OF A MECHANICAL RESTORATION THAN COSMETIC.
THE INTERIOR HAS BEEN PRESERVED REALLY WELL.
THE BODY HAS NO RUST & NO BODY DAMAGE
*ONLY ITEMS THAT DON'T WORK YET: ODOMETER WORKS, BUT THE TACHOMETER SOMETIMES DOESN'T SHOW THE SPEED & THE TURN SIGNAL DOESN'T RETURN TO ORIGINAL POSITION AFTER TURNING.
NOW THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A PERFECT CAR, BUT THIS ONE IS CLOSE TO PERFECTION. THESE CARS ARE 50 YEARS OLD. IF YOU OWNED OR OWN A CLASSIC CAR AND HAVE THE EXPERIENCE THAN YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT THESEVEHICLES NEEDPREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE, LOVE AND CARE.
THEY NEED TO BE DRIVEN AT LEAST 3 TIMES PER WEEK AND NOT AROUND THE BLOCK BUT FOR AT LEAST FOR 10 MILES.
IF YOU HAVE NEVER OWNED A CLASSIC CAR: THEN MY SUGGESTION IS TO BUY A VEHICLE THAT HAS BEEN RESTORED AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE OR ELSE YOU WILL NOT ENJOY PURCHASING A VEHICLE THAT NEEDS TO GO TO A MECHANIC SHOP EVERY TIME YOU START IT. I RESTORE MY CARS IN A WAY, WHERE THEY BECOME DAILY RELIABLE DRIVERS.
THIS CAR DRIVES LIKE A CLASSIC BOAT AND YOU DO NOT FEEL THE ROAD EVEN AT 80 MILES PER HOUR. VERY SMOOTH RIDE WITH A WORKING AIR CONDITIONING & HEATER.
I OWN A COLLECTION OF LINCOLN'S INCLUDING A RARE 3" RAISED ROOF LEIHMAN PETERSON LIMOUSINE, 2 CONVERTIBLES- A 66 & 67 AND A RARE 1971 MARK III 2 DOOR COUPE TRIPLE BLACK WITH AN ORIGINAL SUNROOF THAT WORKS.....
MY DAILY DRIVER IS A 1967 CONTINENTAL CONVERTIBLE THAT I PUT 90,000 MILES ON FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS AND RESTORED SLOWLY.
I AM A MUSICIAN, BUT I HAVE BEEN A MECHANIC SINCE I WAS A KID AND LOVE THESE CARS.
