This is the same type of car from the show Entourage and the JFK assassination For sale is an original 1961 Lincoln Continental Convertible. This is the first year of the "suicide" doors and for this body style and a rare find. Less than 3000 were made in 1961 and its safe to say they didn't all survive. I'm told I have the only one in the state of Colorado. The top works and the cylinders have been replaced with hydraulic ones. The windows work and roll fine up and down. Top works up and down. Seats have been reupholstered with vinyl from the original leather but the electric seat works. Original 430 motor and transmission. White exterior, white interior and white top (those are the original colors of the car). Recently replaced the water pump with a reconditioned original (still have the old core). The radiator was recently completely rebuilt as well. This is an AC car. Not sure if it works though. Radio still works. Brakes are soft but the car drives fine down the highway at 70 mph and stops. Headlights, tail lights, brake lights and turn signals all work. Could be a nice parade car or drive it to the car show.
