A rare car in rare condition indeed.
Beautiful, may I say, sublime.

I believe one of these cars was built for one of the Mrs. Fords. The lines of this car made such a beautiful convertible. Color is perfect. Stunning car. Thanks for not calling it a Lincoln.

Another Fav. This interior is 15 years ahead! That Dash is very modern and lean. So reserved, and classy. $10K when new THANK YOU Barry and CHarles

Divinely elegant classic! I wish we could see it with the power convertible top going up.

[JohnCBurzynski]

It's like a jumbo t-bird. Love it.

I had no idea that any convertibles were made of the Mark II. Gorgeous.

The 56 and 57 Continentals are my favorite 50's cars. The first time I saw one was over ten years ago at the Forest Grove Concourse de Elegance. It was very much a driver in need of TLC but the clean lines of the Continental design captured me. I wish you would have pursued the convertible story. I didn't see an A/C compressor. A/C was a very expensive option on this most expensive car.

What can I say? The Hedy Lamarr of cars. Absolutely, breathtakingly stunning!

[GaryGrube]

The ultimate personal luxury car!
And they were EXTREMELY expansive! The price tag duly reflected the luxury.

This has to be the most beautiful car! In every way, styling, interior, color, it is simply stunning!

I used to see one of these driving around town in Kingsville Texas back in the early 70's. I think it belonged to someone on the King Ranch. It wasn't a convertible but it was a head turner even then.

[JohnGeorgeHill]

Instead of the flash of the Chrysler's, this Mark ll is just subtle beauty.

[violet]

Listen to that motor. The lines are so smooth and elegant.

[Carlito-Fxwg]

Gotta be in the top 3 of the most beautiful cars I have ever seen... It's in good company with Jaguar XKE Convertible and Rolls Royce Corniche Convertible...that saying alot considering all of the amazing cars out there.
