SPECIAL NOTES 1970 was the first altogether new Lincoln Continental in nearly a decade. Lincoln's most visible styling trait of nearly a decade was now gone: center-opening rear doors! 1970 was first year for:
- Concealed headlamps
- Rear fender skirts (since 1960)
- Concealed electric wipers
- Locking steering column
- Headlamp doors closed light
- Vinyl-insert bodyside molding
- Bodyside paint stripe
- Automatic seatback release This lincoln has been garaged for 15 years . not driven much but started routinely and maintained. needs some tlc. the car is lowered by heated springs and on billet specialty custom rims. rims are 4 thousand dollars by themselves.

Has air conditioning but not working because it needs a charge and new belt. front interior seats need upholstery but has a new headliner and the rest of the interior is in excellent shape. needs a new power antena but i believe i have one and will put in car. needs a drivers side push button on the door handle and the palel on the drivers door needs to be resecured. it is the original motor and runs well just needs someone to take care of it as i have no time for it. i put a new carbureator (holley) on it and a new water pump. needs a fan shroud on it or else it will overheat if driving it to long. very easy to get. has scratches and some minor dents but looks great. Im not a car pro so this car would be easy to fix up by someone who knows what they are doing.

right tail light lens is broken but can be replaced for $70. 00 No major problems with the car. I hate to get rid of it but i never use it . Also the passenger rear window is off the track and needs to be put back on. I had electrical redone on interior to make sure windows work about 10 years ago. car needs a timing tune up . In the right hands this is all easy to restore. interior dash is all original. im happy to answer any questions if i can answer them. You will need to figure out pick up of car.
