1962 Lincoln Continental

I've decided to sell my baby since I just got my hands on a 61 Lincoln convertible that needs a full restoration. I've owned this Continental for a few years now and have done a ton of work to it. It's got a freshly rebuilt engine with less than 200 miles since it was dropped in last year. The car drives excellent and has a ton of power! It drives very easy for such a large car with the factory comfort of power steering and power brakes. These cars are getting harder and harder to find every year and especially in this condition. It's ready to be enjoyed as is and used as a weekend cruiser or daily driver. I have a clean CA title in hand with current registration until August 2014. The car is titled to my name and I'm ready to make a deal with the winning bidder. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own an iconic american luxury car that will only increase in value

I bought the Lincoln about 3 years ago from a Navy buddy of mine and have slowly done work to it. The car had been in his family since new and I am only the third registered owner. It still has the factory engine and trans which were rebuilt just last year. I paid $3,000 to have the original 430 rebuilt alone. Car starts on first key turn and doesn't have any mechanical issues. Transmission shifts nice and smooth as well. Interior was all done last year including seat upholstery, headliner, replaced all wood trim, dash detail, trunk carpet, and polished some of the interior trim parts. Car has all original chrome and stainless steel trim and nothing is missing. Bumpers are original and so is most of the trim, only a few parts have been polished and re-chromed. The car's interior is black leather from factory but the exterior was changed from its original gold color to black about 5 years ago. Paint looks good for being a few years old. It has a few paint imperfections from use over the years but nothing major. This car has always been in dry California weather and there are no signs of rust issues anywhere on the car. It's very solid and doors open & close great with no sagging. Car has great lines and spacing between fenders, hood, trunk, and doors. Most of the electrical works including all 4 windows, interior lights, exterior lights, turn signals, wipers, and gauges. The seat only moves forward and back so the control switch needs a rebuild, original AM radio needs new speaker hooked up, and A/C system is due for a service. It blew cold air when I first got the car years ago but since the engine was rebuilt I never got a chance to recharge the system again. Everything is there and the blower system inside the car works perfect. Car has stock suspension but looks lowered because of the smaller tires. Drives and handles well at all speeds.
