1976 Lincoln Continental

Lincoln Continental (1976)
for sale

Price: US $3,500.00

Description:

For your consideration is a 1976 Lincoln Town Coupe. This beautiful example has just over 99k miles, and runs great. The car still wears its original paint, which still has a great shine, and it still has its original interior. I am the third owner of this car, and drive it regularly, so the miles will increase slightly from what is stated in the listing. The car is virtually rust free, except for the front right fender (see pictures). The transmission was professionally rebuilt at 88k miles, and new dual exhaust system was installed, giving the car a nice rumble from its numbers matching 460 V8. It has decent tires with about 75% tread life left, and it has just had all its belts replaced. Even the cruise control still works! As you would expect for a 40 year old car, it does have a few imperfections. The vinyl top needs to be replaced (see pictures), the RHS exhaust manifold gasket blows (replacement included), and the wiper motor needs to be replaced (new motor included). Overall, this is an incredibly solid, well cared for example of a rare car that I wouldn't hesitate to take on a trip anywhere. Happy Bidding!

Used
“For your consideration is a 1976 Lincoln Town Coupe. As you would expect for a 40 year old car, there are a few imperfections, which I will list below:- Original paint has a great shine, but has been rubbed through in certain areas close to primer, and also has a few scratches.-the body is 99% rust free, the only rust being located in the front-right fender. It has the odd dent here and there, but nothing major.- the electric motors in the passengers seat no longer function, and neither do the wipers (new wiper motor included)- the passenger side exhaust manifold blows (new gaskets included)- the vacuum actuator for the flip down headlight covers no longer functions (lights are always open).Overall, this car is in fantastic mechanical, and cosmetic shape for its age. I drive this car often, and it never lets me down.”
