    The stance and sheer size of this car make it so majestic. Put it next to a Rolls Royce Phantom and I'm immediately drawn to the Lincoln. It's slightly over-pimped to my taste but nonetheless stunning.

    Awesome restoration team. I am blessed to have three I acquired throughout my years of military service. 62 and 69 sedan but the 67 convertible is awesome too. Thank you for a look at what goes into them. Mine are not in that bad of shape, all original 460, 462 motor needs refreshing . Getting older now hope I don’t run out time getting them right. Be blessed to all who share the same passion as I for the stinking Lincoln’s.

    A nice HELLO from germany, Bavaria 👋🍀
    I've a big respect about all that nice sheet metal work, even because i know about that big work 👍👷
    I'm still restoring a 67 Chevy Caprice/Impala 4 Door Hardtop with my 70 years old father (i'm 34)
    What i've found in Ohio.i bought and impirted it to me, to bavaria. A car in a original unrestored condition what had rusted out all 4 wheel arches with the dog legs, also the bottom ends of the quarters, the whole lower windshield frame, weatherstrip channel at the trunk, the trunk floor & some more. Now we rebuilded all, especially the wheel arches at the front fenders was very difficult. Even also because you can't find repair panels or something else and it was all self/handmade with new flat sheet metal, hammered, cutted, welded, grinded until we got back rustfree fenders like new. The same about the whole lower windshield frame...the only repair panels we used and you could get for this Kind of fullsize Chevys was the quarter panels for 2 Doors. The forward half part of these 2 Door quarters we cutted and shaped to 4 Door dog legs, even to get back rustfree rear wheel arches... And so we got very good skills about forming sheet metal & body work.
    & Even whenbi see some Videos at your Channel like this about this Continental i really know how, & what much work this is!
    And i've really to say i'm sooo glad to see people like you at USA who're really RESTORING, and even not only changeing parts and use "parts-cars" what are mostly even also worth to save or restore in my eyes.
    That's very nice, because so you could really save more restorable classic cars. Because I think every saved classic car is a good car even also because that other people, upcomming future generations of car guys than could get affordable project cars for their Projects. Every parted out classic car is a lost Part about that amazing history.
    So i'm often very das to see that many people at USA are parting out really really restorable & saveable classic cars, even because they're only changeing parts and aren't really RESTORING classic cars.
    I can see that this Continental was in a condition what made a restoration importand and it's also nice that with this project another more Continental is Back in the roads again instead rusting away or get lost for Future. Yeah, really really great for me to see that!☺👍🍀
    I've to say that i'm more a Fan of a more Classic upgraded look, especially when we're talking about Wheels. So i think wheels Like these on that Continental are a lot tooo big. Especially the cool look with 8×15" and Cooper Cobras in 275/65 or something else at the rearend are my taste. I love the oldschool hot rod wheels on cars of that aera. But hey, it's even all a thing about the personal choose/taste ☺
    I Wish i could get the next project to restore and save from a junk yard at USA. Even to Bring Back a car in the roads what the most people would parting out or let them rotting away.
    It's my orde, to restore and save more of those beautiful US classic cars what anybody else whould not do. It's how i told you; every lost or parted out classic car is a lost Car...a lost Car what must go away☺
    I Hope to see more saved classic cars in Videos at your Channel, it's even so cool, THANK YOU VERY MUCH 👋👋have a great day now🍀🍀

    Amazing project and beautiful work for on the sleekest design in the Modern American car lineage, the front disc are limited in size for the overall weight of the car and the power of the engine, also, the seat with headrest and a wood Dash board would have also been interesting in the design!! overall, excellent result, made by professionals!
