Picked up a Lincoln

[TiredIronGRB]

I plan to do a '60s style custom out of this one...probably HotRodFlatz metalic gold, lowered, with some custom old school wheel covers.

 

[Gastrick]

Those make neat customs. Is that thing as nice as it looks in photos? Restorers are going to hate you.

 

[Snake Farm]

Yeah, what Gastrick said. That looks like an unmolested survivor..........now get to chop'n[ddd[ddd

Congrats on a great find.......reminds me of "Phil Dirt and the Dozers"

Nice looking lincoln, but I loved your wagon! I wanted that car myself but timing just isn't right... I'm sure the lincoln will be hot when done.

 

[VonHyde]

sweet i love it cant wait to see it done, love those cars in the metal flake and 60's styling

 

[TiredIronGRB]

Yea, it's primo...owned by a Lincoln dealer. Tons of new work done last year, new radiator, gas tank, fuel pump, power steering pump, water pump, master cyl, new tires, trans rebuilt and new exhaust...so it should be good to go mechanically.

Awesome piece of Americana right there. Only in America were cars built like that. It's in good hands now. Looking forward to this.

Schrader valve...

On the old lincolns... What was the steel line going down to the tranny with the schrader valve in the end of it for????
did they air up the tranny for some odd reason?

So you've had it for atleast a day now, are you done it yet? j/k

Looks like it will make a sweet custom.

 

[Sam_Fear]

Very nice. And your plan sounds tops!

It may be a while before I actually lay eyes on it, it's coming from Buffalo New York.

Beautiful land yacht...I'm sure it will be cool when your done with it, and who cares about the purists out there....if they were that concerned about preserving it, they should have bought it. Like Posies says...anyone can restore one....it takes a real man to cut one up

 

[Tripper]

Dude... nice ride & it's gonna make an awesome cruiser! I drove a '57 Lincoln 2 door Capri in high school and all I can say is... the chicks dig 'um!!!
