1966 Lincoln Continental

Lincoln Continental (1966)
for sale

Price: US $500.00

Description:

For Sale is ONE 1966 Lincoln Continental Convertible rescue.
This convertible needs your love and attention to return it to its previous glory as the only production suicide four-door convertible of the modern era. It is 99% complete and a perfect addition to one's collection of classic automobiles.
The pictures tell the story. The previous owner was restoring the body, although not very professionally. The car starts with starting fluid (needs carb rebuild), runs loudly (exhaust needs replacement), and moves (towing recommended). IT has been in a non-heated garage for the last 30 years.
Q: Does it have rust? Yes. Most of what you see is primer over paint and/or repaint. The floors are solid, but the car is very typical of the era. It is not rust free underneath and will need some repairs.
Not gonna list everything wrong with this car. It is what it is. The pictures tell the story. You decide if it is a project for restoration or a parts car. I bought this car to fix it up, but I am losing my storage. My loss is your gain.
It runs, but barely. It moves, but barely. Not drivable. Windows and top do not work because of previous owner tearing out the switches and parts. The drivers window does go up and down.
It is in better shape than a lot of other Lincolns on the internet that are NOT convertibles and are missing parts, engines, or transmissions. Missing the round key for the glove box and the trunk switch (controls the top). There are lots of parts in the trunk for the doors, etc.
