Summary:
Used 1971 Lincoln Continental Green
Location:
Modesto, CA
Description:
DETAILS OF CAR: 460 V-8, Auto Temperature Control Air Conditioning & Heating, Unique Factory Vinyl Top, AM-FM Stereo, Power Steering, Power Brakes, 6 Way Power seats on driver & passenger side, Auto Transmission, P Antenna, White Wall Radials, Inside Trunk Release, Remote Drivers Mirror, Traction Lock with 2:80 highway Gearing. Tilt Steering Wheel, Sure Track Braking, Reclining Passenger Seat, Split Bench Seating. Also includes an owners manual (see pics) Marti Report and Marti window sticker included / title Indicates “actual” Mileage Paint * Paint has a very nice reflective shine and a finish that looks much as when they were produced in that era. Slight orange peal as typical. * Paint matches well all the way around the sides and upper surfaces * Looks and seems to possibly be all or mostly all original paint that it was born with. Read comments in magnetic paint gauge section for explanation.We can't be 100% sure since owner hasn't had car since 1971 when new * See pictures for details of small defects that exist in paint finish. * There are a few nicks and worn spots (above left rear tire) in the paint. A couple or more nicks on fenders, doors, and quarters and a few scuffs not completely through the paint and might possibly be polished out. (see pics) Body * Body panels in general are very nice and straight. * Exceptions being 3 very slight dimples you can see on the hood and 1 slight dimple in the pass side door, but only at just the right angle and under high intensity lighting. (see pics) * Fits and gaps around hood, trunk, and doors are very consistent with what you would have expected to see when car was new. (See pics) Magnetic Paint Gauge * With several random readings taken on each steel body panel, we were not able to find any areas of obvious repairs. * Hood and trunk readings were consistently in the 4 to 5 mils range. This in our opinion would more likely be consistent with an aged and polished original surface vs a repainted surface. * Side panels (front to back), readings were typically in the 4 to 6 mils range with below the lower body line being more in the 2-4 mils range. * Along bottom of all body panels showed no higher readings indicating repair of rust or paint. * inspection of door jambs did not indicate any obvious signs of repaint or over spray and actually showed human & weatherstrip wear consistent with use and older paint. Bright work * All exterior bright work appears to be secured in place. All appears undamaged with the exception of the middle of the rear bumper. * Overall bright works has a nice highly reflective finish and shows well. * Bright work surrounding windows is very reflective with some scratching below drivers door glass and typical pot metal pitting on molding immediately behind the LR window. (see pics) * Moldings running along the top of fenders and doors are very shiny and mostly flawless. ( couple little scuffs) * Door handles are very reflective with just a few typical scratches along the top. * Drivers rear view mirror shell is very reflective with a small amount of pitting on top. * Grill work, front and rear bumper all have good reflective qualities but show a little bit of light wear * Rear bumper middle has light impact crease running top to bottom and has affected the molding directly above (see pics). Glass * Windshield, rear glass, and all 4 side glass all have the Car-Lite emblem * Glass is all nice and clear. We do not see any discoloring, delamination, bulls eyes, cracks, or any wiper wear. * Windshield may have a few pin head sized nicks from normal driving and drivers window does have a group of light vertical scratches at top from normal window movement (see pics). Vinyl Top * Top material has been very well preserved from cracking or breaking down and appears to be well fastened to the padding and the metal roof. It lays smoothly without bumpy spots. * Seams running down both sides are in good condition without any signs of splitting apart. * There are a couple little bumps by lower right rear window glass but top doesn't show signs of significant rust issues under material ( see pics) * Coloring is a dark green but does have some areas of slightly lighter appearance. Professional cleaning or dressing may offer some improvement (see pics).
