1966 Lincoln Continental 6.1 Hemi Restomod
Coming in at more than 18 feet in length, with suicide doors, a pronounced grille and formal styling, this 1966 Lincoln Continental 6.1 Hemi Restomod is the epitome of vintage cool. Free of any noticeable damage that would otherwise detract from its curb appeal, it's properly dressed in black paint and chrome brightwork that's looking great and cruises on a set of 22" spoked wire wheels that suit it perfectly. But, as you can probably glean from its description, sheer aesthetics don't tell this classic's entire story. It has also been equipped with an array of mechanical upgrades to provide an exhilarating experience behind the wheel. Given the Continental's longstanding reputation for luxury, you'd expect a roomy, comfortable interior and, as you climb inside, you'll see just that. The front buckets bracket a fold-down armrest that really comes in handy during longer excursions and they, as well as the bench seat in back, are in good shape, with no tears or marked wear. Open one of the suicide doors in back and you'll see that there's a lot of legroom on hand for your passengers. The door panels have come through the years in strong fashion and now feature aftermarket switches for the power windows that look right at home in their surroundings. A woodgrain steering wheel is perched on the tilting column, and the upgraded gauges just beyond it retain that formal appearance you'd expect in a car like this. The expansive compartment on this vintage Lincoln seems big enough to accommodate an economy car inside, so there's plenty of room surrounding the substantial 6.1-liter Hemi V8 engine that propels this cruiser. Fed via electronic fuel injection, the big block is an eager performer, starting right up with a turn of the key and offering plenty of go-power to knock you back in your seat when you step into it. The engine pairs with a five-speed automatic transmission that's ideally geared to take advantage of its output while yielding low RPMs at highway speeds. Power disc brakes at all four corners bring this sizable ride to a stop with no fanfare, while power steering makes it surprisingly easy to navigate. A pair of electric cooling fans mounted up front with the radiator helps ensure that this Lincoln keeps its cool in challenging driving situations.
