I have a 1956 Continental MK11., one of only 2550 produced that year at a cost of $10,000 list, imagine that value in todays market? This could be a very unique car as it has THE ORIGINAL CLOTH inserts which was available in 1956 although every one I| have seen has always been full leather. Replacement cloth is available through SMS in Oregon. I have owned it for 14 years, and the previous owner owned it for 24 years, and all that time it has been in dry covered storage. It seems that Wisconsin was it's original home. The story of the MKII is well known to most people, especially fans of the car. New, in 1956 it cost $10,000.00, just think of that in todays prices ! The car is in ORIGINAL unrestored condition, not perfect but very original with, I believe, 1 repaint in the original color now showing it's age, with small areas of surface and/or minor rust areas. It is NOT an Ac car, however, it is very straight. with NOTHING MISSING! although I have to check on the jack/ wheel brace and will avise on soonest. Included in the sale will be an ORIGINAL FACTORY SHOP MANUAL, with worn covers but clean interior pages, a Factory FOLD OUT brochure, black covers, 9x10 inches, mint, AND a FORD produced HARD COVER book, THE CONTINENTAL STORY, showing great hand drawn SEPIA "ARTY" depictions of the car and it's evolution. I very much regret having to sell this unique car, but with retirement imminent, funds will not be available to restore it to how I want it to be, as it left the Factory.On Mar-17-13 at 16:40:39 PDT, seller added the following information: UPDATE; $9500.00 is my RESERVE TO SELL>
