Up for sale is my 1964 Lincoln Continental. Odometer shows 64168 miles.It Runs and drives.Mostly original and complete. Think of it as a barn find. It will make it to the car show and back, but to have it as a daily driver, it will need some work. It did get a new starter, new starter relay, a new coil, new spark plugs, and a new voltage regulator. All 4 wheel cylinders and the master cylinder have been rebuilt, and all of the brake lines and hoses have been replaced. The brake shoes and drums have plenty of life left in them since there were only about 1000 miles put on them after they were re-done many years ago. It has new motor oil & filter, new transmission fluid, and even the limited slip rear end got new gear oil. The interior has the rare bucket seats option and Cruise Control option, AC, and "Guide-Matic photo eye" automatic headlight dimmer. And I replaced the rotted out whitewalls with some good used tires to safely drive around on.The body is solid, with only minor rust around the wheels. The paint will shine up real nice if you buff it out, or leave the patina that has developed. It will need a new trunk lid, as condensation has taken it's toll on the original (readily available at the online old Lincoln specialty parts places). The rust on the hood can be repaired, but used hoods are cheap enough that it might be easier to go that route. And it will need all power window switches rebuilt or replaced. It also needs all weatherstripping and a new fuel tank sending unit. This vehicle is at the perfect cross roads to go any direction you want. It has plenty of patina if your want to rat rod it, or drive it as a rolling time capsule (I have seen cars in worse shape compete in the "Great Race" event). Or with a little investment you can easily restore it to a shiny show car, or resto-mod it into a nice custom. Three of which I have seen sell for around $40k this past summer on here. The possibilities are endless. The choice is yours.
