Default 60 Lincoln - what was I thinkin?


Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time...Last August when these rare monsters were still listing at around $100K, I was motivated by that most typical motive: greed
I thought I'd get the thing finished for 1/4 of that, & make 20 or 25K well, that ship sailed a long time & many $$$ ago, BUT - the bodywork came out great (not incl a couple chrome parts that need to go back), and I Think I found the right guy to go thru & make the top "erect" (that's what they call it - no lie - probably because you get so excited if it ever all works) and then there's there's ONLY the interior to do

Very solid car, sat in Tustin for 22? yrs, originally from Spokane area. If you know anybody that's gotta have it, in a month?, pls lemme know.

Ready for Summer - in the Southern Hemisphere

Probably the greatest ugly car every built.

I mean that in the best possible way.

I actually really like that car. It is so over the top that it is cool. I'd buy in a heart beat if I had the money you need.

And you could put the 64 in the backseat so you'd always have a spare.



Maybe pretty high up on the ugly list, but still a heck of a cruiser

Yea, that is true. So maybe a "Help Glenn buy 60 Lincoln" Telethon.
