Encino, California

This is the nicest continental I own. I own 5 and have been slowly finishing each one to sell. I've been restoring Lincoln's for myself and friends for over 20 years. Started with a 1967 that i bought from a friend in Las Vegas, rust free which is the only car I will restore. This 1966 I bought a year ago and spent a lot of money and energy rebuilding every inch of it. I had a lot of good to start with. It had a beautiful paint job and interior was in mint original condition.It had mechanical issues from sitting in a garage to long which is usually the case with these types of cars.So the bulk of my restoration was to fix all the window motors and switches, took the dash apart, installed all new bright bulbs and rebuilt each dash component that didn't work like the clock and original 8-Track radio, etc.. I didn't cut any corners and really went overboard on the quality of each section of the car.All the mechanical and electrical upgrades listed below.This is for the person who wants a nice reliable weekend driver and preserve it with preventative maintenance and enjoy driving a classic Lincoln that will never break down and will continue to increase in value. This is a unique color combo that is amazing and the restoration has been done by the best. John Cashman the Lincoln specialist has worked on it twice and finished it with me, with all new window motors and switches and relays. The A/C works great. The only option that lights up and doesn't work is the cruise control and in 1966 Cruise Control was suicide :) So they're not really fixable or safe to use and pointless to get into. You are buying a running Lincoln -not dead in a garage with a mystery of problems. I am NOT a dealer. Besides the 5 Lincoln's I'm restoring: I've owned 2 Lincolns for over 25 years and those are my keepers. Every car I restore: I drive everyday, until everything I upgraded and rebuilt is tested for safety & reliability. I welcome certified inspections prior to bidding. I am available both locally, online or by cell. You are buying a car from someone who's a mechanic, loves these cars and wants to make sure they last another 50 years.I don't sell a lot of cars. One or two a year. I have a "Buy it Now" price with no offer button and I'm firm with my price.I listed it at $40,000 last week to see the reaction and decided to reduce the price to $35,000 which seems to better fair market value from the feedback I received....So this is NOT a car for dealers or brokers who are trying to flip it and make money on it.The only person who can: is someone who buys it from me and takes it over seas to a country where they can double their investment. This is for the classic car collectors, or first time buyer who wants to keep it for 20+ years and with the right preventative maintenance it will eventually exceed $100,000 I buy and sell cars and parts on ebay: checkout my feedback which 100%. If you have less than 10 positive feedbacks you need to call me before making offers online or buying.
