For Sale: 1979 Lincoln Continental in Bennington, Vermont for sale in Bennington, VT
Vehicle Description 1979 Lincoln Continental Town CarPRICE REDUCED DRAMATICALLY Read the details carefully and bod accordingly!!! SHOOT ME AN OFFER!!!!Same owner since 1983, until recently.
Only 58,000 certified miles, original survivor inside and out, and never any restoration of any kind!!Well equipped as noted on the original purchase order when new, from Quality Lincoln-Mercury in Minneapolis.
Mechanically excellent:
A recent carb rebuild, the car starts instantly and rolls right down the road, transmission shifts flawlessly.
Smooth and quiet inside, it's almost like 1979 all over again!! All lights and gauges work as they should, the concealed headlights open with ease.
The factory Am-Fm Stereo radio works perfectly, even the power antenna goes up and down with ease.
The air conditioning is not blowing cold.
The compressor seems to be free, could just be in need of a recharge.
No obvious leaks noted.
Also, the shocks and brakes seem to be in good shape too.
All power accessories work as they should.
Cosmetically, it's in overall excellent condition.
The paint is 90% original right down to it's factory painted on pin stripe.
The right rear quarter panel had a dent repaired decades ago, there is some lacquer checking but it's not too bad.
Also, as seen in pics, two minor spots of rust, just on the bottom sides of both front fenders.
The Dove Gray paint is smooth and shiny, it's stunning!! The interior is also excellent.
No visible wear or rips on the upholstery, the door panels, carpet and dash are perfect!This was a non smokers car.
Perfect headliner.
There is an issue with the vinyl top as seen in pics, the vinyl has numerous splits, unknown reason as to why.
When making an offer bear in mind you'll probably be wanting to replace the vinyl.
Misc notes:
The tires are decent but I'm guessing they're fairly old.
The engine bay is basically clean and presentable.
After all, it's an unrestored survivor!!! The bottom side looks very solid, only normal surface corrosion as seen in pics.
The muffler should be replaced, it's just a bit throaty if you ask me!Also, there's tons of original paperwork going back to new, including the original bill of sale from the dealer.
Take a look in pics!Any questions I haven't addressed, feel free to message me with any questions.
Thanks!Tom.
