About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Excellent paint and panel fit, very good brightwork, engine compartment slightly dirty, heavily undercoated and very dirty chassis, interior complete and needing a detail. A quality cosmetic restoration in very good driver condition.

Market commentary

As 1960s domestic luxury cars begin to be reevaluated on their own terms (as opposed to being compared to muscle cars), the brilliant Continental convertible is being rewarded. A double-take of a price, and worthy of a pause. 10 years ago this would have been the money spent on a 195x X.
