Description

I bought this car in 2011 from an estate with 112,000 miles. It was bought new near Hayward California and spent half its life in Beebe, Arkansas. Original paperwork and books included. Vehicle had clean panels with a slight scrape on passenger fender. The four high points of fenders and rear quarters have wear spots from being kept under a cover for its entire life. In 2013 had the gas tanked cleaned and rust treatment coated as well as a new fuel pump and water pump. Everything worked but did need R12 charge for A/C.
In 2013 put in temporary storage in old tobacco barn with other vehicles. Barn was not in great condition. Trees growing thru side. Did not plan on long term storage but poor health left them till now. In 2015 an ice storm took part of roof and leaned the building. Just dragged them out in 2017 to demolish the barn and have placed them in a new structure
There is Hackleberry tree sap all over the LIncoln. See before and after pictures of barn experience- pictures interspersed from before to drag out day and current . I have removed 70% but still needs cleanup. No real body damage. Clean undercarriage. Paint and chrome have slight oxidation from being in the elements. Couple small stars in windshield. Interior is nice. Triple Green color.
I was able to replace the battery add gas to carb and start vehicle. It will have to be towed from property cause tires are 20-45 years old. One is the original spare and I really cannot guarantee you can jump in and take a 1000 mile roadtrip back home .
You are welcome to preview this vehicle - text your number to 615 585 3057 with 1973 Lincoln and I will return the call. Also had a 1970 Monte Carlo, 1980 Jeep CJ7,1989 Corvette and 2001 Ram 2500 in that barn and they will probably be listed within the week.
