Description

Me and this old Lincoln go way back. Originally purchased brand new in 1979 as a special order by Charles Lundeen for his wife Donna, it was traded back to the dealership I worked at in 1993. For what ever reason Mr Edwards kept it. It was kept in the large building on the back lot with many other cars and trucks Mr Edwards (Dick Edwards Ford Lincoln Mercury at the time in Manhattan Kansas).
About 2 years ago I was asked to help liquidate some of the cars and such and this was one I ended up with. I no longer have the building I kept it in and it has never been stored in outside conditions and I refuse to see that happen now, so I am hoping someone will find the same pleasure I have while owning it.I am motivated to sell due to not wanting to store the car in outdoor conditions
The car is immaculate in every fashion considering the age, everything works except the analog clock, there are two small paint chips I photographed using a quarter to show the size.
It’s runs perfect, it stops perfect, blows cold air, allWindows work as they should, leather is soft and in excellent condition. The front floor mats have been covered since 1993, the rear mats and carpet are perfect also.I have about 600 miles on the tires is all.The car does not leak any fluids that I see on the garage floor or else whereThis car has always been serviced and maintained by Dick Edwards Lincoln and I just had it serviced and rechecked about a month ago.Mileage is correct and original to the car.
I know of no issues with the car at all.
Please feel free to contact me. I can take the car to Los Angles California in April in a enclosed trailer for $800 I’m not in the hauling business that’s the price of hauling if I do it I get 10mpg with the trailer on and it is 2600 miles round trip, fuel, food and lodging is expensive.
I will only go to LA as I’m taking a motorcycle there for my son other wise please use a shipping service of your choice.
Clear title in MY NAMEI have the contact information for Mr.Edwards if you wish to check my story he is now 88 years of age
I know Mr Lundeen who bought it new passed away some years back, but I think his wife Donna is still alive and is in her late 80’s also, but I can find out if you wish. I expect payment in full either by Cashiers check or wire transfer only I do not wish to absorb the PayPal fees.
All the best to each of you
