1965 Lincoln Continental Convertible, Brand new paint and new interior. I have driven this car less than 200 miles since the restoration of this car, I just got it back from the paint shop and I just got the seats reupholstered less than one month ago too. brand new convertible top also. History of this car. I purchased this car about two years ago, and have been working on her for the last two years. It had been sitting since 1982, Yes 1982 was the last time it was driven before I woke her up and started fixing her up. It has always been a California car. NEVER had any rust rot, very solid car, never any major accident. This is the solid California car everybody wants. I have a done a once over on the mechanics of the car and I have replaced all parts that I noticed needed immediate attention. Many parts are still original. This car has a very smooth ride and demands respect and attention as she goes down the road. I have not had the opportunity to drive it much since I finished putting her back together.If you live in California and want the original black license plates let me know. OIL PRESSURE PROBLEM, After I got the car all back together I started to hear an internal light tick sound. I found that the car has low oil pressure at an idle that causes the lifters to make a sound. So I had my mechanic replace the rod and main bearings and oil pump. I am surprised I still have low oil pressure. I put thick oil in the motor and that helped a lot. At this point I do not know what the cause of the low oil pressure. It could be cam bearings, or a bad pick up tube at oil pump or???? I have dropped my price by $4500. I did have the car sold for $32k two weeks ago, but was trying to fix the problem. Today I am dropping the price to $27,500. The car actually runs and drives great, but the oil pressure problem should be addressed. The engine idles fine, does not smoke, has plenty of power and the motor sounds great beside the light ticking sound that comes and goes after the oil warms up. The following parts are new (new means no more than two years old and currently less than 200 mile on part) Main bearings, rod bearings, oil pump,Water pump, Fuel pump,most coolant and fuel hoses,Battery, points condensor cap and rotor spark plugs and spark plug wires, vacuum advance, fuel tank sending unit. The brakes I replaced the master cylinder, front rubber brake lines and the proportioning valve. new tires too. Paint and BodyThe paint job is less than 60 days old. It is a black Lincoln color. It is a base coat/clear coat paint. It has three coats of black paint and three coats of clear on her. It has not been color sanded or buffed out. I do have pics of the body before she was painted, and I could email or text the pics if you need to see the prep work if you are a serious potential buyer, All chrome is original. All glass is original. no cracks or breaks. Interior New canvas top,New carpet,and both seats have been reupholstered. The door panels are original, interior looks fantastic. Power top goes up and down as it shouldpower windows work, although the auto drop and return on the rear driver does glitch out sometimesAll gauges work as they should.Transmission shifts as it should.Brakes stop well, 1965 is the first year of factory disk brakes on front.All headlights, tail lights, brake lights, turn signals,horn work as they shouldThe clock even works (it does need the time adjusted once a week or so)Sometimes the power antenna works, but original radio looks great but does not work.Power seat works all directions as it should.Power door locks work as they should. The Factory A/C is 100% there, but does not currently blow cold. I recommend converting it to 134a freon. Only 3300 Convertibles where made in 1965. I was told that less than 550 1965 convertible Lincolns are currently registered in the entire USA. This is a pretty rare car. Most Lincoln gurus agree 1965 is the best year for Lincoln. They made convertible suicide door Lincolns from 1961 thru 1967. 1965 is the best year because it is the first year of front disk brake, it had a stretched back seat area so rear passengers had more than enough leg room. It has the the one year only elegant grill, one year only tail lights and front turn signal. 1961-63 did not have enough rear leg room, and 1966-67 are kinda funky. 1964 is the second best year for Lincolns. If you are going buy a Lincoln why not buy the best year?? $27,500, I may consider a reasonable offer, but I am not depreciate and I know a nice Lincoln is worth between $30K to $60K . If I do not sale the car soon I will fix the oil pressure problem and raise my price to around $35k. This is your opportunity to get a great Lincoln for a cheap price. $27,500 or call with reasonable offer.I would prefer cash in person. show up in person and pay cash and I will give you a lot of extra convertible parts. I have A LOT of 1964-65 Lincoln parts.I will take a check, but car can not leave my house until my bank tells me check has cleared.I can help you with shipping if you need help finding a shipping company. Look at my perfect feedback and buy with confidence.All questions are welcome, I prefer verbal old school phone calls, but email and text is ok too.Danny 916 508 1306

It had been sitting since 1982, Yes 1982 was the last time it was driven before I woke her up and started fixing her up.
