IM SELLING MY 1965 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL. I AM CURRENTLY THE THIRD OWNER AND THIS CAR HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF. IT IS MOSTLY ALL ORIGINAL FROM 1965. I ADDED A PERTRONIX IGNITION, AN EDELBROCK CARBURETOR, CUSTOM STEERING WHEEL, AM/FM/CD PLAYER IN GLOVE BOX. THE INTERIOR IS LIGHT BLUE METALLIC LEATHER AND ITS IN GREAT SHAPE. THE EXTERIOR IS THE ORIGINAL FACTORY PAINT AND ITS CALLED TWILIGHT BLUE. THE WHEELS ARE ALSO ORIGINAL AND I PAINTED THEM. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL HUBCAPS AND THEY WILL COME WITH THE CAR. THE COOLING SYSTEM HAS BEEN COMPLETELY RE-DONE, THE FUEL PUMP IS NEW, THE SPARK PLUGS AND WIRES ARE NEW, THE DISTRIBUTOR CAP AND ROTOR ARE NEW, THE CARBURETOR IS NEW, THE PERTRONIX IGNITION IS NEW,AND THE ROCKER COVER GASKETS ARE NEW ALSO. THE BATTERY AND CABLES ARE ALSO NEW. THE ENGINE FLUIDS AND FILTER ARE NEW AS IS THE TRANSMISSION. I HAVE RECEIPTS FOR EVERYTHING. I RECENTLY REPLACED THE HIGH PRESSURE POWER STEERING LINE WITH AN ORIGINAL FROM ANOTHER 65. I ALSO REPLACED THE STEERING COLUMN BUSHING SO THE GEAR SHIFTER IS NICE AND FIRM, WITHOUT ANY SLOP. THIS CAR HAS THE FACTORY ORIGINAL 430 CUBIC INCH MOTOR WITH ABOUT 63500 ORIGINAL MILES. IT ALSO HAS THE FACTORY ORIGINAL AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. BOTH THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION HAVE BEEN SERVICED AND WELL MAINTAINED. THIS CAR HAS LOTS OF TORQUE AND POWER AND RUNS VERY SMOOTH AND QUIET. THE BRAKES ARE DRUM IN THE BACK AND FACTORY ORIGINAL DISCS IN THE FRONT. LOTS OF BRAKE PAD LEFT. THE TIRES ARE NEW AND HAVE ABOUT 500 MILES ON THEM. THE SUSPENSION HAS BEEN LOWERED 3" FRONT AND REAR AND ALL FOUR SHOCKS ARE NEW. CAR RIDES AND HANDLES ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. THE EXHAUST HAS BEEN REPLACED FROM THE HEADPIPE BACK WITH STAINLESS TUBING WITH NEW MUFFLERS AND RESONATORS. THE CAR IS VERY QUIET. ALL THE ORIGINAL STAINLESS STEEL TRIM IS IN GREAT CONDITION, ITS STILL SHINEY AND ITS ALL COMPLETE INSIDE AND OUT, NOT ONE PIECE IS MISSING. THE POWER SEAT, WINDOWS, AND ANTENNA ARE ALL FUNCTIONING. THE VACUUM DOOR LOCKS AND E BRAKE RELEASE ARE ALSO FUNCTIONING. ALL THE LIGHTS INSIDE AND OUT ARE FUNCTIONING AS ARE THE TURN SIGNALS AND BRAKE LIGHTS. THE SEATS, AND DOOR PANELS ARE IN GREAT SHAPE. THE FRONT SEAT HAS THE EXPECTED WEAR BUT IS NOT RIPPED OR TORN ANYWHERE, AND THE BACKSEAT IS IN AWESOME CONDITION. THE DOOR PANELS ARE COMPLETE AND HAVE NO TEARS OR DAMAGE. THE CARPET AND FLOORMATS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION WITHOUT ANY RIPS OR DAMAGE. MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE DASH BOARD IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND IS NOT CRACKED ANYWHERE. THE BUMPERS ARE ORIGINAL AND RUST FREE. I HAD THE WHEEL WELLS CLEANED OUT AND PAINTED WITH BLACK UNDER COATING. THE RUST FREE TRUNK IS COMPLETE WITH ALL TRIM, CARPET, AND FACTORY ORIGINAL JACK AND SPARE TIRE. THE CAR IS VERY RELIABLE AND VERY NICE. I GET COMPLIMENTS EVERYWHERE I GO. THE AIR CONDITIONING IS COMPLETE AND THE COMPONENTS ARE FUNCTIONAL, AND IT WILL NEED FREON. I HAVE R12 FREON THAT I WILL INCLUDE WITH THE CAR. THIS IS A TRUELY AMAZING ORIGINAL SURVIVOR CAR. ITS A ONE YEAR ONLY BODY STYLE THAT IS BECOMING HARDER AND HARDER TO FIND. I HAVE SPENT COUNTLESS HOURS POLISHING, WAXING AND MAINTAINING THIS CAR. IT HAS BEEN LOVED AND CARED FOR RESPECTFULLY TO PRESERVE ITS HISTORIC HERITAGE. IT WAS A TRUE ORIGINAL IN 65 AND STILL IS TODAY. I HATE TO SEE IT GO BUT IT DESERVES TO BE DRIVIN AND PASSED ON TO THE NEXT CARETAKER THAT WILL HAVE THE TIME AND DEDICATION THIS AMAZING CAR DESERVES. I HAVE PRICED IT TO SELL AND VERY FAIRLY WITH A RESERVE THAT IS WELL BELOW BLUE BOOK VALUE. BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIPPING AND PICK UP OF THE CAR. THE LICENSE PLATES ARE PERSONALIZED SO IM GOING TO KEEP THOSE. I WILL MAKE MYSELF AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING AND FOR PICK-UP WITH SUFFICIENT NOTICE. GOOD LUCK AND THANK YOU FOR LOOKING.
