Description: You have seen cars that look good in a picture &disappointing in real life. These photos are disappointing when compared to the auto itself! If you demand perfection in an automobile, this is a definite candidate for your consideration. It started w/ a beautiful never dented, NEVER RUSTED ANYWHERE,garaged 1950Lincoln w/ 40K actual miles,Most chrome &stainless trim was excellent but need it or not,every piece was taken off & polished or rechormed!Everything done to car only added to the perfection. The old Lincoln did not have power disc brakes,power steering, tilt, cruise,a/c & all the things we demand in an auto today. It did not have the new Jamco suspension that replaced kingpins w/ ball joints,added new coil springs, heavy duty swaybars, larger shocks an disc brakes that now make this car handle better than new! It did not have a complete stainless steel exhaust system w/ 2 1/2' pipes. It has all that &more now.Engine is a new Ford 460ci crate engine, coupled to a new C6 automatic trans &through a 9' Ford rearend w/ 3 to 1 gears. At 65 m.p.h. set on the cruise control it will get 20 miles/gallon. That is exceptional for a car w/ this much power &weight. Extreme detail exists in things like stainless door sills &the fact that foglights, spotlights &even the backup lights carry the Lincoln name. Paint can not be captured w/ my camera as far as color &perfection. It is a Ford base coat/clear coat from 90s called Desert Violet.I can not capture the straightness of the body panels or the perfect click when closing a door. The Lincoln has been driven just 7k miles since the rebuild. It is ready to drive anywhere you want to take it. &when you park it, you will not find oil laying on the floor when you drive it away again.Invest the time to come see this automobile. You will not be sorry! This auto is sold as is/where is. Transporting is responsibility of the buyer.Contact Gene 815.874.7288, 815.975.2355 or visit our website for more info and inventory.
