For Sale at Auction: 1961 Lincoln Continental in Scottsdale, Arizona

Vehicle Description

This custom 1961 Lincoln Continental convertible nicknamed "Mr. Oswald" is a real triple-black suicide-door convertible. Only 2,857 convertibles were made in 1961 from a total of 25,160 cars produced. This car has been upgraded from its original form to a modern-day cruiser. The upgrades include a rebuilt 430ci 8-cylinder engine paired with an automatic transmission and an updated electric fan, along with a disc brake conversion, Slam Specialties airbags and Choppin' Block tubular air-ride suspension with shocks at all four corners. The body remains straight, and the car lays flat on the ground over custom 22-inch wheels. The fully functional convertible top was restored by John Cashman in 2017 and serviced again in 2024. The interior includes Dakota Digital gauges, custom door panels by Vaughn Designs and a Bluetooth audio system with Focal speakers. The vehicle also comes with the original owner's manual and convertible top user guide.
