One would be hard pressed to find a nicer original 1969 Mk 111 with 17,xxx miles. Little is known historically about this vehicle except that it was purchased in Colorado and was driven into a large metal building and stored about 35 ys until the recent owner's death. What is know from the widow is that the owner's father had a used car lot. If an interesting vehicle was traded or purchased, the owner would store as part of his collection or perhaps more accurately hoarded vehicles.Specific questions are welcome.. In preparation for listing, the gas tank was removed cleaned & coated. The gas line from tank to fuel pump was flushed. The carb was dissembled, cleaned and required a new accelerator. pump The engine was power washed with a "quickie" detail, ( a new air cleaner decal back ordered) A new battery & coil was installed ;Other preparations were to polish the exterior. There is however a small chip in the wood on steering wheel THIS LINCOLN IS OFFERED AT NO RESERVE.
