Here’s a rare, well preserved 1962 Lincoln Continental 4-door hardtop with a tasteful color combination. Many collectors prefer these first-year cars to the later models; the Continentals got larger throughout the sixties but the design was never more elegant than in its debut year. We actually prefer the size of the ’62 over the larger cars—in addition to being a more manageable car to drive through town, the interior on the early cars is more intimate and the visibility is much better.
This example is a good driver that could easily be restored to show condition, and with plenty of power and torque on tap from the 430cid V8 and smooth shifts from the three-speed automatic, it needs no major mechanical attention. The black leather interior is in very nice condition, and affords a new owner the option of converting to the highly desirable “black on black” color scheme.
On the exterior, there are few spots that need some work and others that need to be touched up, and we believe the Red/Maroon paint dates back to the late seventies, but overall, the body has held up very well. Other than some light pitting on the door handles, the chrome bright work is in very good condition as well.
Underneath, the car is in good condition with the exception of the a couple of spots. Please see the extensive pictures.
Overall, it’s a strong driver with tremendous potential and lots to love. There are very few 62s on the road, making this a rare find and a very worthy investment and restoration candidate. As we spend more time with this car, we’re struck by its elegance and beauty, and we believe that 1962 marked the peak of Lincoln’s design and branding achievements.

At our dealership we work very hard to accurately describe our vehicles through text descriptions and elaborate photos. When you purchase a pre-owned vehicle it is not a new vehicle. Any used vehicle can have normal wear and blemishes. Before placing a bid please read the descriptions thoroughly and view all pictures. Feel free to call our Sales Hotline at (603) 818-8511 for a "walk around" verbal description of each vehicle we have in our warehouse.
Also, please keep in mind that we specialize in cars older than 25 model years and we do our absolute best to represent these cars in a direct, honest, and fair manner with over 100 pictures for each car along with a video to let you see the car move and hear the car run. Our written ads reflect both the fact that we really love these cars and feel that we are saving a part of America. We do our best to describe some of the features that you might find important. As a buyer of a car that is older than 25 model years, unless the car is represented as perfect (which our cars are not), you need to be aware that there are many smaller things that may or may not work, or may work one day and not the next, in these cars. This is due to the fact that they are over 25 years old. When bidding on a car please keep this in mind.
At DustyOldCars.com we understand that to buy a vehicle you have not seen, from a dealer you have not met, requires a leap of faith that is why we make every effort to accurately and fairly describe our vehicles to our customers. However, with all pre-owned vehicles that are over 25 model years in age, the condition is subjective. Any errors are unintentional. They may have small dings, small scratches, and minor imperfections. The interior may also be worn due to corresponding miles on vehicle. Please be advised that you should expect a certain amount of wear, flaws from a vehicle over 25 model years in age and use that you would not expect from purchasing a new vehicle. Almost all of our cars are antique vehicles and at times, they may come without accessories such as extra keys, cd magazines, navigation discs, floor mats, tools, etc. and owner's manuals. (Please call for actual miles at the time of purchase as we do drive some of the vehicles). Please read our descriptions and view all the pictures carefully to ensure that you are knowledgeable about the vehicle before ever placing a Bid.
