1958 Lincoln Contintental Convertible
New for the Lincoln Continental in 1958 was a 430 cu. in. 400 hp V8 engine accompanied with a turbo-drive transmission. The main bones of the Continental body features an all steel body with welded double panel doors. Inside features many luxury conveniences all available at the touch of a button. Including a retractable rear window that slides out of sight with just a flick of the switch to give an open car ventilation. The exterior is polished with baked enamel with 3 primer coats and 2 finish coats to give it the ultimate sheen.
This automobile was owned by a local collector and now needs a new home!
This car has been in storage for the last couple of years, prior to that it had extensive mechanical maintenance performed at a local repair shop in excess of $1000. In addition, a new power top pump was installed at the Ford Dealer.
The overall condition of the car is good and as follows:
*The engine starts and runs very good, engine compartment nice.
*The transmission goes into forward and reverse but NOT road tested.
*There are minor fluid leaks which could be the result of storage/non-use.
*The body metal is in very good condition.
*The paint is somewhat oxidized but very serviceable.
*The glass is all good.
*The convertible top is very nice.
*The interior is the weakest point and needs upholstery and carpet.
*Miscellaneous repairs are surely needed.
*Included is a 1958 Continental Service Manual as pictured.
Overall I would rate this car a 7 out of 10, but, I encourage an inspection be done for your own peace of mind. Please contact me to arrange a viewing. Please review all pictures and information and contact me with any additional questions. As I am sure everyone will understand, this car is sold AS-IS.

Ford investing $5B in Lincoln
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
Lincoln owners in San Diego, your chauffeur awaits
Fri, May 12 2017In an effort to make up lost market share, Lincoln is trying desperately to differentiate itself from other luxury automakers. The automaker is offering and expanding a number of services aimed at setting itself apart not only from Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, and Audi, but also the Fords that so often share showroom space. One such offering, the Lincoln Chauffeur, is expanding beyond its initial rollout in Miami, Florida, across the country to San Diego, California. The concept is simple. For $30/hour, a chauffeur will drive you around in your own vehicle, stopping at the store, the gas station, or even at school to pick up the kids. The chauffeur can do these things with or without you present, meaning the driver can drop you off at the airport and return the car home, allowing others to use the car rather than leaving it parked at the airport. The service is available to old and new Lincoln owners, though the former get eight free hours to try the service. San Diego was part of a planned expansion. If things continue to go well, look for further rollouts in cities across the country. Related Video: News Source: Lincoln via Automotive News Lincoln Ownership
