1956 Continental Mark II For Sale.  Excellent Driver Car - not a show car by any means, but a great car which presents itself very well and draws a crowd wherever it goes.

I have a 3 inch binder full of receipts for work done on the car - over $43,000.00 worth of receipts.  These cars are not cheap to fix or restore, so best to get one that has had most of the work done on it.  This car has had a LOT of little things done to it, which would nickel and dime you to death on a car needing a restoration.  Chrome work is excellent, hubcaps excellent, as is most of the car.  Underside of car is very solid and rust free, and has not been undercoated or caked over to cover any rust issues - car has been a Florida and Georgia car, and is very solid. 

Original Town and Country radio has been converted to am/fm - maintaining the original look.  Factory A/C car - blows cool sometimes, but not for long so it will need some attention.  Car drives great, and I try to take it every month to a show 150+ miles round trip from me to stretch her legs.  Car is driven weekly to keep all fluids circulating - it is leaking some oil when parked.  Lot of work has been done on this car, but like most old cars, it will always need a thing or two.

Paint is about 15 years old and is starting to show some wear/cracks in spots, but everyone tells me she still looks beautiful.  Panels in front will need to be re-aligned (this is a very common issue with these cars), but still looks good.  Driver door swung open on me taking a sharp right turn while going downhill (I didn't close the door all the way), and broke the door stopper and the door creased the front fender, so that will need to be repaired - could possibly be popped back out.  I still take it to shows like this, and being white it does not show too much until I point it out to people.  I have provided MANY MANY detailed, close up photos below for full disclosure, so please allow them to load.  


This is just a great looking Continental Mark II which you will be proud to own - nothing quite like a white Continental Mark II to show her beautiful body lines.  I might consider trades - never know - I traded my Ferrari for this car several years back, so I'm open to trades.  Really just a very elegant, understated car that gets compliments wherever it goes - from young and old alike.

Please see the many photos below.  Email or Call, if you have any questions.  Car is located outside of Fort Lauderdale, FL.  I will not take less than the Buy it Now posted, so any emails offering less will be politely ignored.  Call 630 - Two Four Four - Five Six Six Seven.



Below is the crease from when the door swung open and broke the door stopper.

Lincoln, GMC clean up in AutoPacific Vehicle Satisfaction Awards

Tue, 17 Jun 2014

In recent years, there have been a lot of dire pronouncements made about Lincoln's future, or a lack thereof. But Ford's premium marque is like the Rocky Balboa of the auto business; every time the company seems ready to go, it comes back for more. Apparently, that dogged persistence is paying off, because the industry analysts at AutoPacific have put a big check in their win column with their newly released 2014 model year vehicle satisfaction survey. And despite recent enmity for its seemingly never-ending recall saga, it appears General Motors knows how to satisfy new owners, too.
In fact, not only was Lincoln named as the premium brand with the highest new owner satisfaction, even scored three models on the list of passenger cars with the most gratified buyers - the MKS, MKZ and MKZ Hybrid.
GM's stable of brands was also among the top companies in this year's survey. GMC was named the top popular brand by AutoPacific, with its Sierra pickup and Acadia crossover singled out for awards in their segments. Chevrolet also did incredibly well, with more cars on the list than any other brand. The Corvette, Camaro, Sonic and Impala all made the cut in their respective categories.

Here's our best look yet at the production Lincoln Continental

Wed, Dec 16 2015

The team at Lincoln continues to strip off camouflage from the Continental in each new round of spy shots, and the latest set presents a luxury sedan that looks nearly ready for a debut at the Detroit Auto Show in January. This one doesn't even need a tow truck to get around. The production Continental takes the handsome concept's design and translates its cues to the road with tiny alterations. The rectangular, mesh grille doesn't shine with chrome on this one, but that would be an easy addition for the Detroit show. The LED headlights look nearly the same with running lights that sweep upward at the corners. The bottom of the lower fascia sees the biggest tweak the company drops the thick chrome strip in favor of a thinner lip. Lincoln doesn't put any camo on the pillars, so these shots provide a great view of the roofline in profile. Look carefully along the beltline and you can spot where the designers incorporated the high-mounted door handles from the concept. This minor styling touch greatly helps to clean up the lines along the side. The rear sees bigger changes from the concept. For example, these undisguised taillights share the same shape but now have more visible red in them. The production version also wears a fairly simple integrated exhaust rather than the more complicated design before. The Continental will reportedly be available with the Lincoln-exclusive 3.0-liter EcoBoost and front- or all-wheel drive. Unlike the MKS that it will replace, the model's production will likely occur at the Flat Rock, MI, factory. Related Video:
