1956 Lincoln Continental Mk II

1956 Continental Mark II
The car you’ve always wanted!
For sale is #C5681015 of the 3000 ‘56-’57 Continental Mark II’s.
Approximately 1500 are known to still exist.
The 1015 indicates it was the 15th off the line in August of 1955.
A few other special cars were made before #1000 which is where the numbering started.
This car has very recently had a new Deep Red paint job and new grey upholstery.
I have replaced all vacuum lines, the heater valves, and broken cables to get the heat and A/C working.
I swapped in a two speed 12V wiper motor and a Retro/Classic AM/FM radio.
Wheels have been replaced by a past owner with chrome wire wheels and Coker tires manufactured 35 week of 2013, about 8k miles.
I installed front disc brakes and a dual power master cylinder.
When I changed out the front brakes, I found that the linings were brand new and the wheel bearing just greased.
I haven’t found any sign of rust or body repair.
It really is quite nice for being 65 years old.
A great deal of documentation came with the car.
