Classic 1963 Lincoln Continental Convertible on 2040-cars
Littleton, Colorado, United States
Classic and cool 1963 Convertible Lincoln Continental
This car has been well care for mechanically and I have owned it since 2007. It came from Arizona (see pic of plate in photos) and I owned it in CA and CO. It has some surface rust on the bumper, wheels and a few small spots of surface rust, but no major rust issues on the car.
The body is straight.
I did not have any bodywork done but it does appear to have had a modest amount of bondo around the rear wheel well.
The trim is in really good shape and appears complete.
There are no tears in the interior, original leather, but the back panel of the passenger seat came off. The piece is still there and could easily be reattached. I doid not as I would have the seats restuffed.
Front end was rebuilt just prior to my purchase and I had the front drum brakes converted to disc with a kit from Gearhead Engineering, it stops MUCH better with the front end discs.
It has 16 inch smoothies but I do not have the center caps for them. I also do not have the original wheels, and they could not fit over the disc brake kit
The top was replaced prior to my purchase and is in excellent shape with no tears. The rear window is a foggy but not damaged or cracked.
Generally everything works except the radio, and the rear windows do not automatically roll down when the doors are open. The windows all go down from the switches but the rears are intended to go down when the rear doors are opened.
The top works VERY well and was recently serviced.
I tried to capture the flaws in the paint and scratches in the pics. The paint looks decent but it is old.
The cars starts and runs like a champ, and I do drive it to coffee regularly. There is one stick spot in the gas pedal but it does not hamper driving.
I love this car but two of my boys are now teenagers with four-wheel drives filling up my driveway and garage.
Thanks and good luck.

Lincoln 'not true luxury' yet, says Ford design chief
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Lincoln is "not true luxury," according to Ford's design boss, J Mays. His statements come from a story in The Detroit News that saw candid language on the issues facing Ford's troubled premium brand. Notably, there's a need for a strong character, with Mays saying, "Every brand needs to have a DNA and a unique selling point and things in the vehicle that make you think, 'That's that particular brand.'"
With a range of rebadged Fords, it's not hard to see why that DNA is missing. Mays hinted that a full recovery for Lincoln will be a ten-year process, that's been kicked off with the MKZ sedan. While that car is still largely a Ford Fusion under its extremely pretty wrapper, it's the first Lincoln in some time to inject its own unique take both through the exterior styling and through interior features, such as the vertical, pushbutton gear selection.
Some analysts weren't so certain about Mays' 10-year estimate. Jim Hall of 2953 Analytics thinks it'll be more like 30 years before Lincoln can show a true return to form. The issue, as Hall explains it, is that, "luxury has a degree of exclusivity," that Lincoln just doesn't have. Michelle Krebs from Edmunds adds, "it's definitely a wanna-be luxury brand," comparing the troubled American brand with Infiniti and Acura, two other brands that have struggled to find their place in the luxury market.
