Continental Decay


Continental II, originally uploaded by KDavidClark.

Found this Lincoln in Skagit County WA, alongside an old highway. The gearhead in me wants to haul it home and stuff the engine bay full of 460/C6. When these things are clean, they are one of the trickest examples of Fifties luxury car ever. `59 Cadillacs get a lot of press, this is true. But they weren't the only luxo-boats available. The Continental was equally as huge - lack of signature impaler fins accepted - and was powered by a 430 cubic inch V8.

To see one of these things in action, watch the embedded video below. If you don't see it, click HERE to view it directly on YouTube!
