1965 Lincoln Continental Convertible Suicide doors Entorage

Solid California car!
430 V8 stock motor with Edelbrock Carb.   believed only 117K miles on drive train
Factory A/C needs Freon at least
power seat. works 
power door lock vacuum style (not working)
power windows. all go up and down tracks and gears re greased and oiled. some windows switches are finicky . rear drivers window only goes up and down from rear door location.  like I said all window motors are good. power wind wings work too
power antenna works. AM radio does not.
Basics like speedo. dash gauges work as they should.
power trunk and top need to be serviced.  I have preformed a bypass test on all top parts. Although top and trunk do not currently work as they should. I can tell you honestly that The top pump motor is good. the hydraulic rams cyc work. the electric latch system works. the upper panel lift motor works too. So in other words it is likely that it will be a relay. or limit switch adjustment or replacement will most likely get this top working properly.  John Cashman travels 48 states fixing power tops on 1961-67 Lincoln Convertibles all year. John is Highly recommended (813) 390 1950 .
Brakes Seem to work well.  Just replaced Master cyc. both rear cyc. rear shoes. nd front rubber hoses.
Glass and chrome.  All glass is good with one small chip in front windshield.  Interior chrome is in decent to good condition.  Chrome around front interior windshield is pitted (they all are). other wise interior chrome is pretty good for her age.  Exterior chrome is in good condition for her age.  Not show quality . but over all chrome is good. better than most original  Lincolns.
Tires and wheels. 265/35/22r tires with at least 60% tread left. Tires rub a little. smaller tires needed or trim inner wheel well lip corners to run these  tires. Stock tires wheels and hub caps available instead of these wheels if wanted.  Body and rust.  Body is pretty straight. small dent on each front fender.  Drivers rear door replaced from different car.  As for as i can tell this car has the original paint with no known bondo on her. Real hard to find a rust free bondo free classic car.  NO rust rot. has surface rust here and there. but no rust holes or rot.  Solid frame too.
Brand new black canvas top and back window (expensive top).  New carpet kit too.
Clean California Car with Ca title and current registration too.
History and dependable?  So I just recently purchased this car.  She had been taking a nap since 1975.  When i got her she was missing a door and missing the drive train.  Since she was such a solid car I got a 1965 hardtop donor car for all needed running gear.  the donor car was a clean old man car in a recent wreck.  I was told that it had 117K original miles.  the speedo read 117k miles I am sure it turned over one time.  I do believe it is 117K miles on drive train.  Engine sounds good and healthy. no internal knocks or clunks.  Ideals nice. no excessive smoke. no major leeks known.  I just got her running. I have driven her around the block 10 or 12 times and once to the park. So far I have driven her less than 50 miles. she seems ok.  Not sure we can call her a daily driver yet. but I do believe we are close to calling her a daily driver.  
1965 Lincoln is the best year.  Lots of us Lincoln lovers believe 1965 is the best year.  It is the first year of front disk brakes. last year of cool body lines and one year only classy grill.  One of the first years to have the much needed leg room for rear passengers (1961-63 had little leg room).  Anyways only 3300 convertibles were made in 1965 . Only about 500 total are currently registered in all of the USA .  So it is rare to find a decent 1965 convertible at a reasonable price. This may be your opportunity to own a sweet car and a cool peace of history.
Willing to work with you shipping company. but full payment is needed before your shipping company can pick her up.  You are welcome to fly into Sacramento to check or pick her up.  I may be willing to pick you up from the airport too.
Small deposit expected  immediately to hold your Lincoln . $18. 00 or best offer
I will do my best to answer any question.  Some what serious to serious people are welcome to call too.   Danny (916) 508 1306
