About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Sound old repaint and interior but the top is aged and stiff. Very good chrome. Hazy gauge lenses. Dirty, oily underbody and engine. Sound body except for loose right side sill molding and blisters behind the right door. A decent place to start on a Continental restoration, but probably mechanically far from reliable as it is.

Market commentary

This Continental Cabriolet is not in as good condition as its stablemate coupe that crossed the block just before it. It brought comparable money, balancing condition against the much more desirable drop top coachwork and is a reasonable value at this price.
