This 1966 Lincoln Continental has been given the right investments in original-style features and subtle upgrades. So it looks correct, runs strong, and has great features like cold A/C. And you can get it all for a terrific price.
Back when new, these Continentals were the way to announce you were the big shot. The extra-long sedan profile and iconic suicide doors were part of one of the most artful packages for the road ever created. That's why the car is still so imposing. Plus, the black with premium black vinyl top has the regal appearance you want on this upper-class classic. And this feeling continues on the bright work. The big bumpers, wide horizontal grille, and upgraded wire wheels with wide whitewalls is why this Continental is still for big shots today.
Inside is an interior worthy of a Rolls-Royce. After all, the restored silver seats with coordinating blue piping has timeless class. This is well coordinated on the carpeting, door panels, dash, and even the steering wheel. And beyond that is the full gauge package that is a true work of art. Buying a Lincoln meant all the best features, and that includes power seats, power locks, and power windows. Plus, there was $4k invested in the air conditioning system in 2016, so it's blowing strong with modern R134a.
The sporty forward-hinge hood gives a great view of the large 462 cubic-inch MEL V8. This believed to be the original motor for this sedan, and the big blue valve covers and air cleaner on top lets people know that you are keeping this cool cruiser original. There's plenty of power thanks to the huge displacement and a four-barrel carburetor. The dual exhaust even lets out a muscular howl when you really want to get moving. But this Lincoln will never betray its easy-going luxurious nature. The three-speed automatic transmission makes for a fantastic cruiser. The suspension soaks up bumps without rattling the body, and thanks to that long wheelbase, the ride is effortlessly smooth. Power brakes with discs up front and power steering make this a true go-anywhere luxury driving machine.
Complete with owner's manual, this Continental is a model of classic elegance that still impresses today. So at a price like this, you know you need to hurry on this deal. Call now!

About Lincoln
Lincoln, often regarded as more than just an upmarket Ford, has carved its own niche in the automotive world with a rich history and a lineup of distinctive models. Let's take a stroll down the memory lane of Lincoln's story.Early Beginnings:
Founded in 1917 by Henry Leland, the man behind the Cadillac brand, Lincoln initially started as a luxury automobile company. The brand quickly gained a reputation for its quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.
The Ford Era:
In 1922, Lincoln was acquired by the Ford Motor Company, and this marked the beginning of a long association. Ford aimed to position Lincoln as its luxury division, competing with other prestigious brands in the market.
Classic Models:
Over the years, Lincoln introduced several iconic models that left a lasting impact on the automotive landscape:
Lincoln Continental: Launched in the 1940s, the Continental became an instant classic. Its elegant design and iconic suicide doors made it a symbol of luxury and sophistication.
Lincoln Town Car: Introduced in the 1980s, the Town Car became synonymous with chauffeur-driven luxury. Its spacious interior and smooth ride made it a favorite among executives and dignitaries.
Lincoln Navigator: The late '90s saw the rise of the SUV craze, and Lincoln was quick to respond with the Navigator. A full-size luxury SUV, the Navigator combined opulence with utility and became a popular choice among affluent families.
