Vehicle Detail
1959 Lincoln Premier purchased by my uncle in 1967 he drove it for about six years and then parked it because he needed a truck for work. The car has sat since mostly stored in a garage but did spend a few years outside under a tarp. I have tried selling this car twice before with no luck. I have since started the car after a tune up. I foggered the engine, change all spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor and all engine fluids. The radiator is in good shape, no leaks, no puddles under the car and the car started after about three tries. I cut the fuel line at filter so I can’t really write that this car is running, plus the battery was from my other car not included. The car will start with a little care and a can of starter fluid. It ran strong and it was cool to get a car started with little effort after almost 40 years of being parked. The body has some rust spots and the rockers are gone, but are $40.00 online. The body over all is in really good shape after the rockers, no dents, chrome is good no rust holes. The interior is in great shape no cracks in dash or rips in seat. The bad is the springs have snapped and tires are toast. The brake lines and gas lines need to be replaced. This car would run and drive with a little TLC and be very cool. Please save me from this cool car as the more I work on it the more I want to keep it. I have to much going on with other projects to work on this one.On Mar-27-13 at 05:43:29 PDT, seller added the following information:The picture of the car outside is not the best, the car is dirty. The car is not covered in surface rust, it has some spots but not bad for the years.
