After a no-expense-spared restoration, this Lincoln Continental Convertible was shown at the Classic Car Club of American Grand Classic where it won an award on its first showing. In 1982 at the AACA National Meet it was awarded a Senior National First Prize. It has been shown on many occasions and a frequent recipient of many awards.
In 2004 the ownership changed and was immediately treated to a cosmetic and mechanical refresher. It is painted in black with a black leather interior and tan top. In 2008 it was up for auction at the Automobiles of Amelia Island where it had an estimated value of $70,000-$90,000. It was offered without reserve which worked well for the buyer who purchased the car for $59,400.By Daniel Vaughan | Apr 2008
