I am selling my 1961 Lincoln Continental convertible.   I love this car and hate ot part with it but I have other projects. I bought this car about 10 years ago in Seattle Washington.   I drove it home to Phoenix without a problem (except a blown tire) The paint shines up nice but does have a few chips and blemishes.   The chrome is all there and looks great.   The interior looks to be original seats and carpets.   It comes with the original door panels but the ones on the car are from a later model Lincoln.  So cosmetically the car looks but could use some freshening if you want a show car. The car runs and drives great. The engine is quiet with no knocking or smoking.   It has lots of power with its matching 430 CI V8.   The transmission shifts quietly and smoothly.  One thing that does need attention are the braes,   They stop the car fine but the pedal is really hard.   I have been told it is either a vacuum leak or the brake booster.   Both are inexpensive and I will be working on it while the auction goes if I find some time. The top is all there but needs service.   IT goes up and down flawlessly if you jump the first relay.   I don't know if that means the relay is bad but they are only $49.    Please feel free to ask any questions.   I will explain anything to the best of my ability and honestly. I hope you would come look at the car before.
