Description
Presented here is a beautifully restored example of the iconic 1969 Lincoln Continental Sedan, finished in its factory-correct Raven Black over a striking black interior. With just 1,125 miles driven since completion, this Continental offers a compelling blend of period-correct presentation and fresh mechanical confidence.
Power comes from the Continental’s original 460 cubic inch V8 and paired with a C6 three-speed automatic transmission. The car is equipped with a 3.00:1 rear axle ratio, offering a slightly more responsive driving character while maintaining the smooth, effortless cruising demeanor expected of a Lincoln flagship.
The exterior presents exceptionally well in Raven Black, with deep gloss, and the brightwork, trim, and badging appear well-sorted and consistent with the car’s overall level of finish. The design remains one of the most recognizable of the era, defined by its slab-sided presence, and rear-hinged rear doors.
Inside, the cabin has been refinished in black, providing a clean and cohesive continuation of the exterior. Seating surfaces, door panels, and dash components show well, preserving the Continental’s signature luxury feel. The interior environment remains true to the model’s reputation for quiet comfort and understated elegance.
