Our Take:
- Iconic Design: The 1963 Lincoln Continental is known for its timeless design—particularly those famous suicide doors. This model is an icon of 1960s luxury, embodying a sense of elegance and grandeur that’s hard to rival. Imagine the prestige it commanded rolling down the streets during its heyday.
- Historical Significance: This was the car that brought Lincoln back from the brink of extinction; it single-handedly saved the brand during a time when sales were floundering. With its distinct look and engineering, the Continental became a symbol of American automotive prowess and was even used in government motorcades.
- Rare Features: Many unique features set this model apart, including its squared-off, slab-sided design and the innovative center-opening doors. The automatic transmission was quite advanced for its time, providing a smooth driving experience that was the envy of many carmakers. This vehicle retains much of its authenticity with new brakes and a rebuilt differential, keeping it road-ready.
- Condition and Potential: Despite some rust on the trunk and issues with the widow motors, the interior restoration and recent mechanical services mean this Continental still has plenty of life in its elegant chassis. For a car enthusiast with a love of history, it presents a fantastic project with a rewarding finish line.
