Vehicle Detail
I am thinning out my collection in order to complete some unfinished projects this winter, so up for sale is my beautiful 1965 Lincoln Continental Convertible. I have spent a lot of time and money to get it to where it is today. It looks great, drives like a dream, and once you put the top down you should expect a lot of attention. Mechanically it is turn-key, ready for the road; starts right up and idles smooth, accelerates with ease and stops on a dime. The engine and transmission were gone through, and the factory AC is still present and complete. No visible rust or patches anywhere on the car - it is very solid.The paint is presentable - not show quality by any means since I do drive it around, but looks great with a few imperfections here and there. All the lights and signals work fine as well. The interior is totally complete and looks good but is a little dry from all that time with the top down. The power top goes up and down flawlessly and I have included a link to a video of it opening (the process and technology of the time is amazing). The convertible top material has a few minor tears in it, but is overall solid and keeps the weather out. The glass is in great shape and the power windows were all working but a little slow so I recently disconnected the regulators to grease them properly but haven't yet reconnected them. All 4 windows are on the tracks and lowered into the doors. I also have 4 spare motors (hard to find) that are included with the car, should there be any issues. The bumpers and trim are all in great shape and shine nicely. Also included with the car is a few boxes of spare parts that I have gathered over the years along with a TON of paperwork like the original warranty card, dealer brochures, advertisements, service manuals, parts books, receipts, etc...

Please call with any questions or to make arrangements to come see the car in person. 347-753-3891
