re: Would you drive it?

a true land yacht, bring it home son ....

This is the Lincoln we had when I was a kid...
1960

That's a bad mf'er. I wouldn't drop it like that but everything else is on point.

I've been looking for a nice land yaht. In my dreams, I'd totally restore one. In reality, my yard, garages and storage are full of half finished projects. I need one in good shape that just needs a little cosmetic work and maybe some minor mechanical stuff. Or else it'll join my graveyard of neglected projects.

69?

No

61-63

Yes

When that said , they later cars are considerably less.

It's basically an 01 lincoln clad in a 63 body. He cut and welded both unibodies together.

Sub 3k lbs now. Almost 30 mpg out of a big american cruiser.

On hwy 347 between Henderson and Breaux Bridge there was a similar Lincoln sitting in the front yard of a house for years

Not sure if it still there

Why? Just the look you don't like?

Yes, it's purely subjective

1969 Lincoln Continental with suicide doors in great shape for sale in Orange Texas.

The suicide doors make it. Now go find me a convertible.

Found one I am going to look at in a few hours. Same guy with the green one in my OP.








Not as nice inside, and needs some paint or a wrap job, but it's more of what I was looking for.

Check for rust down in the rocker panels, rear trunk, and cowl.
