This 1958 Lincoln Continental Mark III sedan was registered in California and refurbished before the seller’s 2010 acquisition, and it is finished in red with a black top over color-coordinated leather upholstery. The car is powered by a 430ci V8 linked with a three-speed automatic transmission, and the engine was refinished during the refurbishment. Additional equipment includes rear window skirts, chrome bumpers, air conditioning, a power-adjustable front bench, a Town & Country AM radio, and 14″ steel wheels with turbine-style covers and whitewall tires as well as power operation for the side, vent, and rear breezeway windows. This Continental Mark III is offered in Canada with Alberta registration in the seller’s name.
With a 131-inch wheelbase, the third-generation Continental had a curb weight of over 5,000 pounds and was designed with a retractable breezeway reverse-angled rear window as well as welded double-panel steel doors. This example was refinished in red with a black roof during the refurbishment completed under prior ownership. Further details include a hood ornament, rear wheel skirts, and an egg-crate grille and taillight panel. Close-up photos of the paint, trim, and imperfections are provided in the gallery.
The 14″ steel wheels wear turbine-style covers and are mounted with BFGoodrich whitewall tires, and a covered spare is stowed in the trunk. Drum brakes provide stopping power.
The front and rear bench seats are trimmed in black and red leather, and a matching color scheme extends to the door panel upholstery. Appointments include air conditioning, a Town & Country AM radio, a headlight dimmer, a power-adjustable front bench, and power operation for the side, vent, and rear breezeway windows.
The black and red steering wheel features a chrome horn ring and frames a 120-mph speedometer, an analog clock, and supplementary readouts. The instrument cluster lens is cracked. The five-digit odometer shows 32k miles, approximately 200 of which were added during current ownership.
The front-hinged hood opens to reveal a 430ci V8 that was factory-equipped with a four-barrel carburetor and rated at 375 horsepower when new. Fluid services are said to have been performed in preparation for the sale. The oil pan gasket requires replacement.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission.
