I AM SELLING A 1957 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL MARK II . IT IS IN NEED OF RESTORATION. THE CAR DOES NOT RUN. THERE WERE ONLY 444 MADE IN 1957 AND ABOUT 2400 MADE IN 1956. IT WAS PRODUCED FOR ONLY TWO YEARS IT IS ESTIMATED THAT THERE ARE ONLY ABOUT 1300 MARK II's LEFT IN EXISTENCE.THESE CARS WERE HAND MADE AND COST OVER $10,000. A ROLLS ROYCE COST $9,800 AND A CADILLAC ELDORADO COST $4,800. THE MARK II 's WERE OWNED BY FRANK SINATRA, ELVIS, AND THE SHAWOF IRAN , AND OTHER WEALTHY PEOPLE, AS THESE WERE THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT COULD AFFORD THEM.THIS CAR HAS SPENT MOST OF ITS LIFE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND ARIZONA, AND IT IS MOSTLY RUST FREE.THE CAR NEEDS THE INTERIOR DONE, THE PAINT JOB SHOULD BE RUBBED OUT, THE A/C COMPRESSOR HAS TO BE PUT BACK IN THE CAR. THE SIDE WINDOWS (BOTH ARE CRACKED, BUT IT IS FLAT GLASS) HAVE TO BE PUT BACK IN THE CAR. THE CAR IS MOSTLY COMPLETE, WITH ONE PIECE OF CHROME TRIM ON THE HOOD MISSING. IT IS NOT THE ORIGINAL KEY IN THE IGNITION, SO IT HAS TO BE JUMPED. THERE ARE SOME OTHER ITEMS THAT HAVE TO BE HOOKED UP. SUCH AS THE DOOR AND TRUNK AND WINDOW HARDWARE. THERE IS A NEWLY REBUILT RADIATOR, A NEWLY REBUILT STARTER, A NEWLY REBUILT GENERATOR, A NEW BATTERY, NEW BRAKE END HOSES (THE MASTER CYLINDER NEEDS ATTENTION). THE ANTENNA IS THERE BUT HAS TO BE INSTALLED. THERE IS NO WARANTEE, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED ON THE CAR. THE SHIPPING IS THE RESPONSIBILTY OF THE BUYER, BUT I WILL BE HERE TO HELP. THE CAR WOULD HAVE TO BE WENCHED ON TO THE FLAT BED. THE CAR IS BEING SOLD WITH A LOW RESERVE, SO BID ACCORDINGLY. IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS YOU CAN CONTACT BOB AT 716-633-8928.
