1962 Lincoln Continental Convertible

Produced on October 11, 1961 at the Wixom, Michigan Lincoln plant, this is one of just 3,212 1962 Continental Convertible Sedans produced. In the rare paint code "X" - Black Cherry - with trim code 84 - beige leather interior. The leather, real mahogany wood inserts and trim are all in excellent original condition. After 51 years, this car is still stunning. This car had a factory price of $6,720 in 1962 - equivalent to nearly $52,000 today. One owner for many years (his name is still on the dash plate). Current owner for over 15 years. Always garaged. No signs of accidents or abuse. Car had one repaint in correct original color some years ago and a tan Haartz cloth convertible top with maroon piping installed (as opposed to the original vinyl top.)

 Loaded with options including power windows, power seat, power top, automatic headlight dimmer, radio, air conditioning and more. This is a lovely car that has traveled just 47,652 miles and all indications point to that mileage being true and correct. Please see photos and judge for yourself

The original 430 cubic inch, 300 horsepower V-8 runs smooth and quiet with no smoke. Fitted with factory 2 barrel carburetor. 10:1 high compression heads. Dual-Range Automatic Transmission with 2.89:1 differential for effortless cruising in this 5,213 pound beauty. Clean and rust-free underneath. A very honest, original Continental Convertible.
