SOME HISTORY FROM THE BINDER (Used by a typewriter):

“In 1976, Fred Smith, owner of Fred Smith Lincoln Mercury of Independence, Missouri, purchased this car from the original owner.  This showcase vehicle was personally used by Mr. Smith for Shriner parades and other classic displays.  During the twelve years Mr. Smith owned the car ’76-’88 extensive restoration work be factory trained authorized Lincoln mechanics was performed on the engine, transmission, electrical and brakes.  At 70,000 miles Good Year wide white radial tires were included.  Since 1988 to present, current owner has continued maintaining & driving this car weekly (weather permitting) restoration on body & chrome including clock, radio, mirrors & knobs all restored to original.  Carefully and correctly maintained a grand representation to end of an era.”

From what I can tell from the binder in 1993 the car had extensive restoration again to perfection by Baker’s Auto in Putnam, CT. at a cost of approx. $30,000.  Very little miles since this restoration have been placed on this car.

The air conditioner needs a new compressor as the existing one is frozen.  All controls/fan for the a/c work properly.  Heater works.  The rubber seals for the top on top of the windshield are missing.  The radio is not original but in working condition.
