Then of course the retractable convertible top is unique.

The convertible stores in here and still leaves some trunk space.
The convertible top system was completely rebuilt in 2009 including a heavy duty pump, 4 new rams, lines and solenoids.

SERVICE:
We inspected the car and fixed the fuel gauge and power door locks, adjusted top switches and replaced some window seals, the brake booster, mufflers and visors.
Full disclosure:
The previous owner literally advertised this car as fully restored in perfect condition.
It's not perfect, it's a good example.
Auction results report the 1962 Continental has sold on average for $81,290 and that includes hardtops.
One very recently sold for $715,000! This is a very desirable, impressive car that is priced fair.
Someone will love feeling like a Boss driving this Continental! I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now.
A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking.
What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered.
One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail.
These cars are displayed in a museum.
If interested in a particular car, make an appointment with a salesman to see that car.
Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom.
If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year membership.
