What’s special about this listing
Details
This 1969 Lincoln Continental is powered by a 460ci V8 engine that sends power to the rear wheels via a C6 three-speed transmission. The car is painted in the factory color code S (Medium Gold Metallic), and the interior has been changed from the original Nugget-colored interior to a cloth animal print. This Continental comes with power seats, locks, windows, and the trademark suicide rear-hinged doors. The car's odometer shows 39,260 miles, but the total mileage is unknown. This Lincoln is currently located in Chicago, Illinois.
The third-party photos of the car show a straight body with clean lines. The car does show some rust on the lower left rear quarter panel and front bumper, and surface rust is present underneath the vehicle. There is also a paint defect on the right fender, and the photos show a cracked fan shroud. A third-party inspection of the car was performed and found that the interior is in good condition despite a tear in the headliner. The inspection also notes that the tire tread depth should also be monitored. All power features in the interior are said to be functioning properly. A video of the engine running smoothly is included in the report. Overall the car is a good candidate for some exterior reconditioning or for the next owner to enjoy as it is. Included in the sale are two sets of keys.
This Lincoln Continental is being sold through a CLASSIC.COM Pro and is located in Chicago, IL.
