1961 Lincoln Continental in Uncasville, Connecticut

Vehicle Description

This stunning, rare 1961 Lincoln Continental convertible has 75,000 well-documented original miles (mileage not indicated on the title). The car has had a recent repaint in its original Columbia Blue Metallic with matching restored metallic blue-leather seats. Rare options for this first-year model of the suicide-door body style include bucket seats with locking console, working cruise control and headlight dimmer, along with usual factory automatic and power options. The original factory 430ci V8 engine was completely rebuilt less than 1,000 miles ago, when it also received a new Holley carburetor. (The original carburetor is included.) The hydraulic roof system was completely rebuilt and all suspension professionally returned to factory specs at the same time. Although the car is mostly original, three years ago, a removable Kenwood stereo/navigation system with back-up camera was installed and integrated into the console so that it looks original. Documentation includes original owner's manual, catalog, welcome letter from Ford, nameplate on dashboard and original matching-leather key wallet. Published in calendars and magazines numerous times, including a multiple page spread in the book "Cars of the Sensational '60s." Calendars, magazines, numerous original repair manuals, California Black Plates, key chains and other documentation are all included. This piece of automotive history is a real pleasure to drive.
