EXTERIOR:
Sheet metal panel alignment, fit and finish is exceptional.
1 repaint of its original Lincoln Maroon color code in 2-stage base clear. The paint is a mile deep for its quality with little to no damage evident anywhere. I'd characterize the finish as a strong 9 out of 10 for its merits.
Chrome/ Brightwork is complete, rust-free, and exceptional in all respects.
All glass is in great shape-------no signs of wear or damage.
Convertible top has been replaced historically. The top is in decent shape for its age showing minimal wear. Power top works effortlessly at the touch of a switch.
INTERIOR:
Interior Leather is exceptional with no signs of wear. No unusual odors or stains. Carpet is intact/ undamaged/ not faded
All dash instruments work as they should except for the AM radio (could be as simple as a fuse, but have been unable to get this into a mechanic at time of this listing.
MECHANICALS:
Vehicle is kept on a battery tender.
Starts easily, runs well.
Manual Trans shifts as it should thru all gears with no surprises.
Tires are in great condition and are otherwise unremarkable.
As you survey the marketplace for higher quality examples, I urge you to consider this very well cared for Continental as it does not disappoint. Always stored in climate-controlled garage.
