Would do it myself, but need to sell some toys in preparation for the stork. My loss is your gain. Please read: I do not want to exchange this car for anything other than the US dollar (e.g., You must take a bag of diamonds that matches the value of the auction I won. Seriously, it happened). I will promptly answer any questions you might have about the car, but I will not answer unreasonable questions. Frankly, I enjoy answering thoughtful questions. I welcome international buyers that will pay in cash and arrange pick-up & delivery. This is not a new or like-new refurbished car. It is a rare classic that is in good, but not excellent shape. I believe it is one of those convertible Lincolns you could fix up, drive for a year or two & sell for a ton at a Barrett-Jackson. I've tried to be as transparent as possible with the description and pictures. Save time & read both carefully. If you happen to be in North Carolina, and are serious about the car, let me know and we can arrange a showing.
