1979 Lincoln Continental 4 Door


The Great:


Totally new long block 6.6L 400ci Ford engine installed less than 1000 miles ago with full documentation. Runs absolutely perfect

All accessories/tune up items replaced - alternator, ower steering pump, water pump, tarter, oses, istributor, lugs, ires, tc

Mechanically in great shape, ransmission shifts strong

Brakes redone and it stops on a dime

New battery

Clean Title


The Good:


Body and paint are in mostly good condition with some minor rust bubbles here and there

Solid undercarriage

Interior is in good condition for a 37 year old car

Tires have 50% tread and are in good shape

Headlight doors open and close as they should

Cruise control works

4 new speakers and new head unit installed


Needed improvements:


All 4 windows do work, ut some motors could use a rebuild, s they are either slow or need help going up

Carburetor needs a tune-up

Power locks are frozen, verything does lock manually. Can hear the motor trying to work.

Front passenger seat switch no contact (motor good)

A/C (R-12) was drained when the motor swap occurred. It DID blow cold prior to being drained so the compressor is good.

Power antenna stuck in ‘up’ position.

Some wear on the steering wheel

Clock doesn't work


With that said, have no issues driving this car anywhere. Currently use it for long drives without any worry.

It’s not perfect, t’s almost 40 years old and the pictures reflect some of the wear. I have no idea of the actual mileage. Odometer says 70000, t could be accurate but I have no way to know for sure.


Take a look at the pictures for an honest representation and ask any questions before bidding.


Parked at a commercial lot so feel free to come inspect it.


Must be picked up within 7 days of auction end. I will deliver within 50 miles free of charge.
