1966 Lincoln Continental Coupe on 2040-cars

1966 Lincoln Continental Coupe

A two-door version was launched in 1966, the first two-door Lincoln since 1960, and the MEL engine was expanded from 430 to 462 cubic inches (7.0 to 7.6 L). The car was given all-new exterior sheet metal and a new interior. Parking lights and front turn signals went back into the front bumper, and taillights set in the rear bumper for the first time. The length was increased by 5 inches (130 mm) to 220.9 in (5,610 mm), the width by an 1-inch (25 mm) to 79.7 in (2,020 mm), and the height by almost 1-inch (25 mm) to 55.0 in (1,400 mm) (on the sedan). Curved side glass returned.

Heres a nice 1966 Continental Coupe Driver. it's getting tough to find one of these, let alone one this nice that is reliable enough to drive. Nice enough to drive and be proud without the hassle of worrying to put the first scratch on it when you lean on it! It has a new set of Coker Wide White wall tires,  new Coker 15" chrome baby moon wheels & new duel exhaust that has been tucked up close to the chassis so it is ready for airide or to be lowered if you would like to put it in the weeds. It has a 462ci v8 with an automatic transmission. It runs and drives nice.  the odometer reads 41,000. i am assuming that is not accurate. the car is fairly clean for its age but not 41,000 clean.  the title reads 0 miles. It has a Edelbrock 650 carb thats about a year old. The brakes are very nice. There is a backing plate that rubs the brake rotor a little, No big deal. It is an A/C car but the belt is not installed. I am assuming the system need sealed and recharged. It is a very solid car & has minimal rust. The paint is older so it is not show quality. The interior is nice minus a crack on the dash, a few small tears in the upholstery and the worst, the top of the rear seat was sun baked and needs that panel replaced. The surrounding material is in good condition and will be able to be sewn to to fix the issue without doing the whole back rest. All of the badges are gone because they were all beat up and it looked better without them. All of the mounting holes are still there so they can be replaced if need be. All of the glass is fantastic! Minus a crack vertically through the middle if the windshield. the chrome trim is very complete. there are a few minor dings in the trim. nothing that can't be worked out if you would like to fully restore them. The blinkers and the brake lights work. Driving and tail lights work as they should.  The power antenna works, the radio works, the speedometer works perfectly. All of the interior lights/ switches work. I have checked/repaired all of the window switches. Both front quarter windows pivot nicely! The drivers door works perfectly yet the passengers side catches sporadically. The window track needs to be re-squared. The rear window relays switch on but the motors do not react. i have not checked to see if they are even connected. the blinker and brake switch wires were not connected when i purchased this car. I cleaned the connections and plugged them in and they work fine. the wipers work fine but need new blades to wipe rain efficiently.

Overall it's a cool classy car! It sounds killer! It rumbles nicely when accelerating yet levels out when cruising.

Nada lists its value between $5,300 to $23,300 so i think my buy it now price of 12k is fair.  Any questions please call 303 906 6999
