1964 Lincoln Continental Convertible
One Family Since New, Nut-and-Bolt Restoration, Low Mileage

 
Few cars rival the clean American styling of the early 1960s Lincoln Continentals. Sometimes called Kennedy Lincolns, several were adopted for the White House fleet. Lyndon Johnson, too, liked the Lincolns, often leading the presidential press corps around the LBJ Ranch at breakneck speed in a car like this one. Interestingly, this car was purchased new by a woman whose family kept a home just down the road from the Kennedys in Hyannis Port, which brings new meaning to keeping up with the Joness

This 1964 Lincoln Continental convertible remained in the family of the original owner until our recent acquisition. After nearly four decades of reliable use, the family decided to have the car restored, entrusting the good men at White Post Restorations to handle the work. By the time this ground-up restoration was completed it cost well over $200,000--suffice to say it was a true nut-and-bolt operation. Documentation, including pictures and receipts, available upon request. 

Though some time has passed since beginning the restoration, the car has traveled less than 700 miles since completion! While the odmeter was reset to zero when the gauge cluster was rebuilt, the original maintence booklet shows that the car was never taken in for its 6,000 mile service, leading us to believe that this car may have less than 6,000 original miles.  The car is correct and in good order both cosmetically and mechanically. The 430-cubic inch V-8 rated at 320 horsepower feels healthy and pulls strong, the brakes, steering, and other mechanicals are all excellent. And, of course, the power convertible top works without fault. Also included with the vehicle is the original owner's manual, maintenance booklet, and original production slip. Few examples remain in the condition of this particular car, which is finished in a classic period color combination of Powder Blue over Blue Metallic-Finish Leather. With star cache that runs the gamut from John F. Kennedy to the cast of Entourage, there is perhaps no better car with which to cruise en masse.
