1966 Lincoln Continental

For sale is my 1966 Lincoln Continental Suicide 4 Door Sedan 462 V 8 Restoration Project that Needs to be Finished - I'd finish it. but I'm out of time and can't finish it. The funds are going towards my fishing habit.

ENGINE:

The engine I THINK was rebuilt at one time. but still needs to be serviced and tuned up. carb needs adjustments. etc. Engine DOES run ok. but sometimes will back-fire. I think maybe the timing is off? But other-wise it has lots of power and no odd noises in the engine.

TRANSMISSION:

Seems to shift well. and goes through all the gears good. reverse works good. So I think there's NO issues at all in this department.

INTERIOR:

It does need a complete restoration on it. missing a few trim pieces. arm rests. windows crank handles. inner door handles. window switches. etc (see pics). Headliner is ripped in a few places. but complete. Carpet is missing. so that needs to be replaced. and a few MINOR trim pieces are missing in the interior. The door panels are there. and MIGHT be usable to restore. Seats needs complete upholstery. Top dash pad has a crack. front dash looks great with minor wear & tear. has original radio that has a 8-track player in it. speedo works. dash lights work except the temperature control lights. seat belts look original (has 10-66 date Fo Mo Co). MISC:

I don't see ANY major rust or rot on this car. only a small area by the front windshield pillar (see pic 2"x 2"). The front windshield needs to be replaced because it is cracked. and a few MINOR chrome pieces around the front windshield is missing. antenna is gone/broken. All the chrome looks REALLY good and pretty straight. all hub caps are there and has minor scratches/dents. all the lights look in good shape. and seem to work. The outside hood has two yellow "burn" marks on it because looks like it had a backfire/fire under it. but I don't see ANY wires or fire damage. ALL glass besides the front windshield is in good shape. Hood is missing the Lincoln emblem. The power steering is good. the front end is a little sloppy and needs to be rebuilt. The A/C looks pretty complete. but the compressor is "seized". have that rebuilt for under $300. 00. Needs a whole new exhaust system done as this one is all split up.

TIRES:

Tires are fairly new. and still have tons of tread on them (roadclaw P 235/75 R 15 R 220).

BODY:

Is REALLY straight and only have a few minor dents. scratches. scuffs. The paint job is a inexpensive one (other owner had it done). so I'd repaint it with a better one if you like.

VALUES:

NADA Values - Low $4. 40. Average $10. 20. 00. High $22. 80. Hagerty Values - Fair $8. 00. 00. Good $13. 00. 00. Excellent $20. 00. 00. Concourse $29. 00. 00. SOOOOO. Either way this is a GREAT deal for this car NO matter what!

I know I forgot something. BUT

These cars values are going up. and hard to find in good shape like this one. So PLEASE NOT looking for low ball offers. Thank you!
CAR IS SOLD AS-IS RESTORATION PROJECT!
