DAMN!! My folks drove this very same car for 15 years! Hardtop with vinyl roof, though. Black on black on black...what a car. Power headrests, wing windows, factory am-fm radio with the "wonderbar" seek button on the floor next to the high beam switch. How cool is that?

If you have the heads off at any time in the future, and intend to keep the car, Have a competent machinist replace the valve seats with hard stellite...unleaded gas proof.

Isn't it amazing, we all love our old cars and get together without calling each other assholes and liberals or other derogatory terms. There may be something here the world leaders could learn. But most of their first cars were camels.
Oh well just a thought..

Of the few cars I like, this is one of them. Smooth doors, and a trunk big enough to hide several bodies in. Very practical car, despite the MPG.

Mom used to pick me and my younger brother up after school in her '66 Continental. The black paint and suicide doors made all the other kids think it was a limo! Heh heh!

Funny thing you mention, John_Stone...when my folks GAVE me this car (and I drove it everday to my high school) I felt miserable about the $20 it cost to fill the tank twice a month. Sure wish I had that problem now!

BIG ass springs and shocks. Maybe you're thinking of the Citroen SM, (or S&M) to those of us who've actually worked on one. It's French...no other explanation needed.

Flounder, as in Animal House? I can't remember, did they actually use an old Continental in the infamous parade scene?

knocked the rear axle off it and damn near the whole rear end. all it did to "the link" was knock the bumber off line about an inch. I was trying so hard not to laugh at the girl, she was almost crying cause, "her daddy was gonna kill her"
