About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Good older repaint, wavy rear bumper, scuffed front bumper. Creased and surface cracked but sound original upholstery. Good trim chrome. Good dash and gauges. Dirty chassis and underbody with original undercoat. A sound and largely original Continental, an AACA winner (but not recently.)

Market commentary

Done oh, so many years ago to standards that today call for it to be characterized as a cosmetic restoration this is an honest car that pretends to be no more than what it is. The style and understated elegance of the Continental is a milestone design. This one has the rare factory A/C and will be a rewarding piece to own and drive, especially at this realistic price.
