1966 Lincoln Continental Convertible

This is the one you've been waiting for!  Suicide doors.  Classic luxury and muscle combined.  This car has everything!

 


Don't hesitate and miss the chance to own your dream car.  You don't cant find these cars in this condition.  This was top of the line in it's day with power windows, power locks, 8-way power seat , power antenna, power brakes (disk), power steering, A/C and cruise control.  Yes, cruise control on a 66... and it works!   I restore classics for a living and have sold several on ebay with 100% feedback, but this is different.  This is my baby, titled and registered in my name.  I never thought I'd let it go.  I've had a hundred people ask me to buy it and I've always declined.  Well, here's your chance.  I drive this car at least a few times a week and it never gives me any problems.  It rides like it's floating on a cloud.  The 462 cu in engine is super strong, yet surprisingly quiet.  They had four mufflers from the factory so you couldn't hear the engine to give it a more luxury feel.  When you're cruising with the top down all you hear is the wind and the compliments.  If you know anything about these cars, or are looking to buy one, make sure everything works, because it can cost thousands just to get all the windows working, and more for the top.  This one has been gone through by an old Lincoln expert.  The top goes up and down quickly and quietly for this model.  All the power windows go up and down.  The switches work even though a couple are missing the tips of the switch as is common.  Even the vent windows are power, which always catches people off guard.  I installed a nifty remote to control the convertible top from up to 100 yards away.  See second video.  This is my favorite feature, and it draws a crowd every time I use it.  Don't be like everyone else with a Mustang Chevy.  Really stand out with this rare classic.  I have been lucky enough to own just about every classic you can think of and this one gets far more attention than any other.  It was made for cruising so you can actually drive it on the highway and long distances with ease and comfort.  The A/C blows ice cold so even here in Florida I'm always comfortable.  The heater works as well.  It was recently painted an elegant pearl white that is perfect for this style of car.  The maroon interior is in exceptionally good condition.  All the gauges work as they should.  All the lights and blinkers work.  The cruise control works.  The power seat works as it should.  No cracks on the dash.  Brand new carpet.  All of the chrome is in fantastic condition with the exception of a small section of the rear bumper.  All of the stainless trim is in nearly perfect condition, which is extremely rare to find.  The vinyl top is in great condition with one small rip in the bottom left corner.  The tires have over 80% tread and the wheel covers are in great shape.  The radio works, but it's the original so only AM.  Like all cars, this one isn't perfect, but it's close enough for me.  I've added two videos and as many pictures as I could to represent the car accurately.  Since the video I added "gangster white walls" which can be included with the car if the winning bidder wants.  All of the videos and pictures were taken last week with my cell phone and were not photoshopped or enhanced in any way.  I have set the reserve low and no buy it now, so good luck bidding.  This is a very rare opportunity to own a very rare piece of history and a real gem.  I'm sure I'm leaving a lot out, so feel free to email me with any questions.  I also encourage anyone interested to come see it in person and drive it.  Just prepare to fall in love.  Speaking of, I reserve the right to end this auction any time because anyone who sees it is going to buy it on the spot.  Feel free to call, come by, or email with serious offers.  I will not end the auction until cash is in hand.  Thanks for looking, and good luck bidding!

Two limos used by President John F. Kennedy are going up for auction

Fri, Sep 25 2020

Two Lincoln limousines last used by President John F. Kennedy are being auctioned by Bonhams in New York. As reported by fordauthority.com, the cars are part of The American Presidential Experience sale. Neither Lincoln is the infamous open convertible in which Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas (that car is on display at The Henry Ford museum in Michigan), but one of these was used by the president on that fateful trip. The white 1963 Lincoln Continental convertible carried the President, Mrs. Kennedy, and Texas Governor John Connally, on the morning of November 22, 1963 in Fort Worth, Texas. They rode in this Lincoln from the Texas Hotel, where the President and Mrs. Kennedy had spent the night, to a breakfast where JFK gave a speech. From there, they drove through Fort Worth, on streets lined with crowds, to Carswell Air Force Base for the flight that would take them to Dallas. The car was a loaner from local dealer Bill Golightly, and was sold in 1964. It spent time in several different museum collections and has been partially restored, receiving a new engine and a repaint in its factory Ermine White. The red leather interior, however, is said to be original. The pre-sale estimate for this Lincoln is $300,000–$500,000. The second Lincoln is a 1960 Continental Mark V Executive Limousine. It was modified by Hess and Eisenhardt and features bulletproof doors, a divider window, a two-way telephone, and rear-seat climate controls. This car was leased to the White House and was used by President Kennedy for personal trips around Washington, as opposed to official trips for which the larger presidential limousine would be used. After President Johnson took office, this Lincoln returned to the Ford Motor Company and was purchased by a private individual who had a contact at Ford's Washington office. It, too, later spent time in various historical collections, and its body has been restored but the interior remains original. The pre-sale estimate is $200,000 to $300,000. History buffs who miss out on either of the cars might raise their paddles for some of the other items offered. There's a full-scale facsimile of the Oval Office, a partial fuselage of a Boeing 707 retrofitted as a replica of the Kennedy-era Air Force One, as well as numerous smaller items. The auction takes place on October 14.

GM design boss Welburn says Lincoln isn't a Cadillac rival [w/poll]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

General Motors Vice President of Global Design, Ed Welburn, had some dismissive words for a certain cross-town luxury brand during an interview with Car and Driver. When asked about his thoughts on Lincoln, Welburn deflected, before saying, "I don't consider Lincoln to be a competitor for Cadillac."
"They're not a global luxury brand. I don't consider them a competitor. Are they a competitor for Buick? Quite possibly. But not for Cadillac," GM's head designer explained. Welburn, who's been at the helm of GM Design North America since 2003 and is the first to hold the position of VP of Global Design, has been instrumental in the styling renaissance at GM, so predictably, Car and Driver's interview with him focused on the design aspect of cars.
During the interview, Welburn explicitly denied plans for a reborn Cadillac XLR, even as a new Chevrolet Corvette is hitting the market and strides are being made with Cadillac's V-Series performance arm saying, "We have a lot of cars that we're working on for the Cadillac brand. The XLR is not one of them right now."
