1962 Continental: coachbuilt station wagon

This 'highly unique' 1962 Continental is currently for sale on eBay. 
It will definitely get you noticed at the local car show.


This highly unique Lincoln Continental is for sale by Jenkinson Concours&Customs in Escondido, California. The aluminum-top “flying brake” shaped piece is a one-of-a-kind coachbuilt car from Coachwork FLM Panelcraft in London, England. The company is famous for its unique “shooting-brake” Aston Martin DB6 and other one-off pieces from high end manufacturers such as Rolls-Royce and Bentley.

Vehicle History: the previous owners were part of the Scripps family (benefactors of the Scripps Institute of Oceanography) and, true to its license plate “1  only”, this is the only Lincoln Continental coachbuilt by FLM Panelcraft. The car was purchased from the original owners in 1973 and has not been driven in approximately 20 years. The engine of the car is inoperable and does not turn and also requires a new hood, front doors, bumper, and grill. The body of the car and the floor pan remain relatively rust free. The car does not have a title and is sold as an as-is car for parts or restoration.
