Vehicle Detail

This is a 1963 Lincoln Continental with 41k on the clock. Burgundy Frost Metallic exterior with Rose Beige cloth interior. Its a rare non AC car, vacuum power locks, power windows(intermittent), power vent windows, power steering, power seat, and power antenna(intermittent). Everything works great except for the windows and antenna they work when they want presumably from bad switches. The car has been freshly tuned up, the carburetor has been rebuilt, and new brake shoes/hardware installed at all four corners. (left front drum appears to be an aluminum unit from a T Bird). Other then that and a good wash she is exactly as she was found including the biased ply tires. I'm currently driving the car from home to the shop (about 2 miles) its very reliable and solid. It will most definitely need tires and an exhaust to make any sort of trip however. The trans is strong and smooth the engine runs great, and it rides like a dream. The body overall is in restorable condition with some rust issues here and there with exception of the trunk lid which is by no means savable and does NOT reflect the condition of the rest of the body. We do have replacements available and the winning bidders request. The major spots body trouble spots are noted in the pics. On the positive side. The chrome parts while pitted are all restorable and in perfect structural shape with nothing bent dinged cracked or missing. The bumpers are very straight and dent free. The stainless on this care is immaculate with only two small dings on the passenger front fender trim. The rest of it is perfect enough that we had offers to buy it alone. The windshield is cracked but the rest of the glass is in great condition with no delamination. The interior is in nice driver shape. The rear seat is in great shape with one burn mark on the driver side (pic). The front seat is in fair condition with only minor ware on the driver side and some drying leather. The dash pad does have some cracks but is still in decent driver condition. The headliner aside from a separated but repairable seam is nice. The door panels all sport very nice vinyl only needing some minor cleaning and fresh carpet. The carpet is all there but very faded. Over all its a very solid car to restore or leave as is for that trendy "patina" look. We have a multitude of new and used 61 to 68 parts available that can be offered to the winning bidder. We are a fully equipped street rod shop known as Illustrious Iron, and have the ability to make any vision you may have for this old beauty a reality. From air ride and engine retrofits to full on restorations and customizing. If you have any questions concerns or would like to see any of the numerous other pics don't hesitate to ask.
