HIGHLIGHTS: Highly original survivor vehicle that has never
undergone a restoration Believed to be a two-owner North Carolina
car Silver exterior (color change from original green) with a
well-preserved, original interior Functional power convertible top
and power windows Iconic design with suicide doors-one of the most
recognizable classics of the 1960s! A drivable, turn-key cruiser
with loads of character BODY OVERVIEW: This 1966 Lincoln
Continental's body showcases the bold, unmistakable lines that have
made it an icon. The suicide doors alone are worth the price of
admission! The sheet metal looks solid, and while there are minor
blemishes here and there, this is expected for a car that's
survived for nearly six decades without restoration. If you're a
fan of originality, you'll appreciate this Continental! PAINT
CONDITION OVERVIEW: The car has undergone a color change to its
current silver finish from its original green, offering a more
modern and sophisticated look. The paint is presentable and shows
nicely, though you will find minor imperfections consistent with a
survivor car. It shines nicely and gives this Lincoln the presence
it deserves! INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: Step inside, and you're
greeted by an original off-white leather interior that carries a
cool, vintage vibe. There is some minor wear, but nothing that
detracts from the overall charm of the cabin, and once again the
condition is consistent with a well-preserved survivor. The seats,
dash, and trim all reflect the car's originality, giving it an
authentic, period-correct feel. For those who love the "survivor"
aesthetic, this interior might as well be pure gold! MECHANICAL
OVERVIEW: Under the hood is a 462ci V8 that starts up and runs
smoothly, providing the effortless and quiet cruising experience
that Lincolns are known for. The power top functions well, making
for a perfect drop-top experience. The power windows also work,
adding convenience and serving as a reminder of what luxury was in
1966. As it sits, this Continental can be driven and enjoyed! WHAT
YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: The iconic styling and suicide doors
The fact that it's a highly original, survivor car Driving one of
the most luxurious convertibles of the 1960s The power convertible
top that still works! WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: If you're
looking for a fully restored car with modern amenities, and
cosmetic perfection, this isn't it. DOES IT NEED ANYTHING? The horn
is not operational, and the dash switch for the convertible top is
not working. The air conditioning is also inoperative. The car is
in drivable condition, but addressing the horn, convertible top
switch, air conditioning, and radio will bring it closer to
perfection. However, none of these affect the immediate driving
experience! WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR? This Lincoln is
ideal for the collector or enthusiast seeking a survivor with
character. It's perfect for someone who values originality and
wants a car that's turn-key, with the option to fine-tune a few
details over time. If you love mid-century American luxury and want
to own a piece of rolling history, this 1966 Continental
Convertible is the one for you! Contact Rare Rides Company at
