In 1961 Lincoln introduced a car that would become one of the most iconic cars of the 1960s, the Continental. The car looked very sleek; it featured integrated headlights in the grille as well as wraparound front and rear bumpers. The car is most notably known for its rear hinged “suicide” rear doors. In 1961, its first year of production, Lincoln produced 2,857 Continental convertibles.
This 1961 Lincoln Continental convertible is presented in Desert Frost Metallic. The car is powered by a V-8 engine paired to an automatic transmission. The interior features black leather with wood accents and an original woodgrain steering wheel. A unique feature on this convertible is factory air conditioning. Power options on the car include power seat, windows and convertible top. The owner states the power top is in working order. Driver aides on the car include power steering and power brakes. This is a very rare and desirable car, marking the first year in the run for this admired and popular four-door convertible.
