Great opportunity to own a rare 1963 Lincoln Continental Suicide Door with Factory A/C at a reasonable price! Only 3,138 of these beauties were built and no telling how many are left!

This 1963 Lincoln Convertible has had some restoration done but will need a lot of work to finish. The previous owner told me he started the restoration a few years ago and had the car painted but has been outside for 2 or 3 years which effected the paint on the trunk lid and hood and should be redone. Looks like the other panels might be ok with some buffing.

He had the engine completely rebuilt by a professional shop in Orlando. I called them and they verified that they completely rebuilt it and in fact remembered that they had a hard time locating some of the parts. I asked for a receipt but they needed a date, which the previous owner did not remember, before they would dig through their files. I have their name and number.I have not started the engine or even attempted to turn it over since it has been sitting outside for so long. I have removed the plugs and filled each cylinder with marvel mystery oil and drained and replaced the engine oil as well. It will be up to the new owner to complete the process. It might be fine but I honestly don't know.

Fortunately the interior was at the upholstery shop and not left outside. He had the interior redone as pictured which includes the front and back seats, front door panels and new carpet but never finished the rear door panels which I have with the car. We placed all the new interior pieces in the car for the pictures to show what it looks like installed which is beautiful. There is one small spot on the front seat that needs repair. The dash is very nice with no cracks.

The floors are solid (see the pictures) although there was the start of rust on the front drivers floor which we coated with POR 15 which stops any current rust or in the future. I did find some areas of rust underneath the worse being at the left rear underneath the rear bumper area (this definitely needs to be addressed). There is some bubbling around the drivers side rear of the trunk lid that should be addressed. I saw no evidence of any accidents but am no expert.

It seems like most of the trim is there but I do not have the time to go through the boxes of parts to see what if any parts are missing. Also I have no idea nor did the previous owner what condition the top mechanisms are in. I would just assume they will need work.

The Data Plate reads Body - 74A...Color G...Trim 85...Date 12C...DSQ 16 which indicates it was originally Silver Mink Metallic with a red leather interior.

The rare 1963 convertible with Air Conditioning is considered by many experts as the most desirable of any of the 61' to 67's convertibles. This is an opportunity to get into one at a reasonable price.

Ford investing $5B in Lincoln

Lower gas prices mean there are excellent deals on green cars right now

Sat, Jan 17 2015

The phenomenon was big enough to make news in 2006, then in 2008, in 2011, in 2012, in 2013, and again last year: a big move in gas prices means a big move in alternative-fuel-vehicle sales. True Car's TrueSavings report, which averages transaction prices across the country to figure out what people are paying compared to MSRP, shows that electric cars and hybrids are ripe for excellent savings right now. The Ford Focus Electric presents the greatest disparity, with the average transaction price of $25,168 representing a 16.1-percent saving off its $29,995 MSRP. The Kia Optima Hybrid and Toyota Prius also snagged spots in the top five, with the Kia offering a 10.7-percent discount and the Toyota a 10.1-percent discount. One hybrid managed to show up among the top five lease offers, too: the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is just $315 a month for 36 months after $3,875 down in some markets. Alt-energy vehicles got bumped out of the top five finance deals, however. That was dominated by light trucks and, oddly, two subcompacts. The press release below has more details. TrueCar finds hybrids, EVs top list of best savings in January Gasoline price plunge = savings for consumers on alternative fuel vehicles SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Ford's Focus Electric hatchback, which sells at an average of 16 percent off MSRP, tops January's list of best savings on new vehicles, according to TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE), the negotiation-free car buying and selling platform. The "TrueSavings" monthly report analyzes current transaction prices and identifies opportunities for consumer savings. "Fuel savings are not top of mind to many consumers right now, and that makes this a great time to buy a hybrid or electric vehicle," said John Krafcik, president of TrueCar. "With gasoline prices now averaging just $2.10 per gallon, and vehicle preferences tied so closely to short-term gasoline prices, automakers are heavily discounting their most fuel-efficient cars to clear inventories." Toyota's Prius, the world's best-selling alternative fuel vehicle for more than a decade, also makes January's list of best savings. Customers who purchase a Prius Two model this month can save 10 percent off the hybrid car's $25,025 MSRP. "Gasoline prices and vehicle type preferences are strongly related, and this relationship is cyclical in nature," said Krafcik.
