Solid California car!

430 V8 stock motor with Edelbrock Carb.   believed only 117K miles on drive train.  Engine purrs like a kitten. 

Factory A/C needs Freon at least

power seat, works 

power door lock vacuum style (not working)

power windows, all go up and down tracks and gears re greased and oiled, . rear drivers window only goes up and down from rear door location.  like I said all window motors are good. power wind wings work too

power antenna works, AM radio does not.

Basics like speedo, dash gauges work as they should.

power trunk and top need to be serviced.  I have preformed a bypass test on all top parts, Although top and trunk do not currently work as they should, I can tell you honestly that The top pump motor is good, the hydraulic rams cyc work, the electric latch system works, the upper panel lift motor works too. So in other words it is likely that it will be a relay, or limit switch adjustment or replacement will most likely get this top working properly.  John Cashman travels 48 states fixing power tops on 1961-67 Lincoln Convertibles all year. John is Highly recommended (813) 390 1950 .

Brakes stop well.  Just replaced Master cyc, both rear cyc, rear shoes,and front rubber hoses.

Glass and chrome.  All glass is good with one small chip in front windshield.  Interior chrome is in decent to good condition.  Chrome around front interior windshield is pitted (they all are), other wise interior chrome is  good for her age.  Exterior chrome is in good condition for her age.  Not show quality , but over all chrome is good, better than most original  Lincolns.

Tires and wheels,20" wheels and tires Stock tires wheels and hub caps available instead of these wheels if wanted.
.  
Body and rust.  Body is pretty straight, small dent on each front fender.  Drivers rear door replaced from different car.  As for as i can tell this car has the original paint with no known bondo on her. Real hard to find a rust free bondo free classic car.  NO rust rot, has surface rust here and there, but no rust holes or rot.  Solid frame too.

Brand new black canvas top and back window (expensive top).  New carpet kit too..

Clean California Car with Ca title and current registration too.

History and dependable?  So I just recently purchased this car.  She had been taking a nap since 1975.  When i got her she was missing a door and missing the drive train.  Since she was such a rare and solid car I got a 1965 hardtop donor car for all needed running gear.  the donor car was a clean old man car in a recent wreck.  I was told that it had 117K original miles.  the speedo read 17k miles I am sure it turned over one time.  I do believe it is 117K miles on drive train.  Engine sounds good and healthy, no internal knocks or clunks.  Ideals nice, no excessive smoke, no major leeks of any fluids.  I just got her running this year, I have been recently driving her around town, I got a good feeling about this car.  I think she will be a good runner. She has a nice smooth ride to her .

1965 Lincoln is the best year.  Lots of us Lincoln lovers believe 1965 is the best year.  It is the first year of front disk brakes, last year of cool body lines and one year only classy grill.  One of the first years to have the much needed leg room for rear passengers (1961-63 had little leg room ).  Anyways only 3300 convertibles were made in 1965 , Currently today only like 538 convertible 1965 Lincolns  total, are currently registered in all of the USA So lets say there is another 500 not registered or out of this country, that would make this literally  one of 1000 left in the entire world! So it is rare to find a decent 1965 convertible at a reasonable price. This may be your opportunity to own a sweet car and a cool peace of history that is destined to go up dramatically in near future. 


Willing to work with you shipping company, but full payment is needed before your shipping company can pick her up.  You are welcome to fly into Sacramento to check or pick her up.  I may be willing to pick you up from the airport too. Use the shipping calculator to find out how much to ship to you. Generally speaking the more you pay the faster you get her.  Should be able to get it shipped to you for $400 to $1600 depending on how far away from Sacramento Ca, you are.

Small deposit expected  immediately to hold your Lincoln . If you have less than 10 positive feedback ask me before bidding, no flake please.

I am doing my best to give you all the info I can... All questions are welcome, I know a lot about these cars.

Some what serious to serious people are welcome to call too.  Danny (916) 508 1306

Weekly Recap: An '80s encore in the auto world

Sat, Jul 11 2015

The '80s returned in a big way this week, as National Lampoon's, Ghostbusters, Miami Vice, and even Tetris were back in the news. While there were far more serious topics (see below), nostalgia mingled with modern marketing to put these Reagan-era favorites back in the spotlight. The '80s were alternately cold and corny at times, but their cultural touchstones can still generate big money. That's why Infiniti recreated an iconic scene from National Lampoon's Vacation (1983) for an advertisement that hawks the QX60 crossover. Actor Ethan Embry, who played Rusty Griswold in a later Lampoon's movie, pilots the Infiniti – which is serving as a modern Family Truckster – for a trip to Walley World. A blonde pulls alongside in a red Lamborghini. They flirt, and she drives on. Christie Brinkley, who played the original girl in the red sports car (she drove a Ferrari in the '83 flick), is riding shotgun and chides Embry with: "A blonde. In a convertible. Seriously?" Okay, it's hardly on the level of "here's looking at you," or even "you can't handle the truth," but it should resonate with '80s babies, many of whom are now having children of their own and moving into three-row SUVs like the QX60. Naturally, Hollywood is going back to the well, too, with a Vacation remake that premiers July 29. Meanwhile, Ghostbusters is returning next year, and director Paul Feig offered a peak at the new Eco-1 in this tweet. In the 1984 classic, the team drove a modified 1959 Cadillac. Now, it will drive a late '80s Cadillac. As expected, the announcement generated support and controversy from movie and car enthusiasts. His tweet had generated several thousand retweets and favorites in the days following the news. Though the '80s Caddy looks, uh, less elegant in comparison to the now-iconic fins and curves of the original Ecto-1, it's about the same time lapse into the past as the '59 Caddy was to viewers in 1984. Speaking of 1984, Miami Vice, which debuted that year on NBC, is seeing one of its hero cars hit the auction block, Mecum Auctions announced this week. The 1986 Ferrari used on the show will be offered for sale Aug. 15 during Monterey classic car week. The white supercar runs a 390-hp flat 12-cylinder engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission and was in storage after the show ended in 1989 until earlier this year. It has 16,124 miles on the odometer and is authenticated by Ferrari North America and Classiche.

2017 Lincoln Continental spied inside and out

Thu, Jul 9 2015

Lincoln certainly made us stand up and take notice when it unveiled the Continental concept at the New York Auto Show this past March. Showcars, however, are only worth so much if they never reach production. But as these latest spy shots indicate, Ford's luxury division is hard at work taking the new Conti from show floor to showroom. The team from Dearborn has clearly gone to great lengths to disguise this prototype, wrapping it in a new type of camouflage with trompe l'oeil bulbous-looking shapes to keep us from seeing just how close the production version will keep to (or how far it may stray from) the concept's design. Our spy photographers did, however, manage to snap some shots of the inside through the side glass, and though it's still evidently some ways off from reaching production, some key details give us an idea of what to expect. Look closely and you can make out the buttons for the transmission running down the side of the infotainment screen, just like on other new Lincolns. The chromework appears to have been toned down some from the blinged-out dashboard of the showcar, but it may be too early to say how much shine there will be to the production model. The overall design of the center console looks pretty darn close to the version we saw in New York, though. The Continental is expected to replace the MKS, as Lincoln moves away from alphabetical nomenclature back towards actual nameplates. Assembly is slated to be undertaken in Flat Rock, MI. There are a great many more details yet to be uncovered, but as far as early indications go, it looks like Lincoln is well on its way to making its concept a reality. Related Video:

Production 2017 Lincoln Continental arrives with 400-hp V6

Tue, Jan 12 2016

Lincoln still isn't saying much about its new flagship, the long-awaited Continental. Instead, it's got to get everyone's attention. The brand that's been threatening to get a genuine luxury game going for years probably wants people to sit inside the fullsize sedan to learn what it's got, and we think that's a great idea. One good bit we know is that the new Continental is powered by a 3.0-liter, twin-turbo V6 with "a projected" 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque. We also know the marketing folks have the luxury-speak down, with lavish promises of heated, cooled, and massaging Perfect Position 30-way seats that adjust to shape and weight, as well as climate-controlled seats for rear passengers that also recline, and "generous rear legroom." Themed interior appointments come in Chalet, Thoroughbred, and Rhapsody selections, perceived-quality boosted further by a specific number of stitches-per-inch on the leather, a laser-cut door on the instrument panel, and real wood and aluminum trim. Acoustic laminated glass, active noise control, and available Revel audio are meant to insure serenity. Technology points are scored with optional adaptive steering and all-wheel drive, three drive modes, dynamic torque vectoring, surround-view cameras, adaptive cruise control, and pre-collision braking. We will really begin to know the new Continental when we sit in it later today at the Detroit Auto Show, for now there's the press release below. All-New Lincoln Continental Delivers Quiet Luxury: Elegant, Effortlessly Powerful, Serene - Lincoln Motor Company introduces its elegant new flagship – the all-new Continental – coming this fall - Effortless power comes from new 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine that produces a projected 400 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. of torque1; advanced safety technology is also featured - Serene interior offers the comfort of Lincoln's innovative Perfect Position Seat, spaciousness, rear seat amenities, Revel® audio system and top-grade materials DETROIT, Jan. 12, 2016 – Lincoln Motor Company heralds the return of its flagship – the all-new Lincoln Continental – an elegant, effortlessly powerful, serene full-size sedan that delivers quiet luxury to the industry's most discerning customers.
