1966 Lincoln Continental

This vehicle is located at our Indianapolis facility - 2461 Reeves Rd #194, Plainfield, IN 46168



This 1966 Lincoln Continental Convertible is an unmistakable example of one of Lincolns most iconic designs, combining massive proportions, clean styling, and the famous rear-hinged suicide doors that have made these cars enduring American classics. Finished in black with extensive chrome and brightwork, this Continental has a commanding presence from every angle. Wide whitewall tires with factory-style wheel covers complete the period-correct appearance.



Power comes from Lincolns big-block V8 paired with an automatic transmission, delivering the smooth, effortless cruising character these luxury cars were built around. Power steering and power brakes make this full-size Lincoln comfortable to drive, while its long wheelbase and substantial construction provide the relaxed road manners expected from a flagship 1960s luxury automobile.



Inside, the black interior presents nicely and retains the distinctive styling that makes the Continentals cabin nearly as impressive as its exterior. Front and rear bench seating provides plenty of room, while the sweeping dashboard, horizontal speedometer, chrome accents, and thin-rim steering wheel preserve the cars unmistakable mid-century Lincoln character. The passenger-side front power window is currently inoperative.



One of the defining features of the Continental Convertible is its elaborate power-operated convertible top system. The top sequence on this example will operate and raise the top; however, once the top is raised, the rear deck/body panel does not complete the closing sequence. A solenoid is suspected to be the source of the issue, but further diagnosis will be required. The convertible top system is therefore not fully functional, and the vehicle is being sold as-is with respect to this condition.



The 1966 Continental represents the final year of the four-door convertible body style, making it an especially recognizable and desirable member of the Continental lineup. With its black-on-black presentation, wide whites, suicide doors, and unmistakable proportions, this example offers tremendous presence and an opportunity to enjoy a true 1960s American luxury icon while addressing the remaining convertible-top and window items as desired.
