    This is a 1957 lincoln Premire that me and my father have been doing for a couple years now and it is finally done. Its been a long and nagging project, but now its worth it. Bought this car at a junk yard auction and drug it home with a parts car also. Never took body off frame, but did a ground up on the car. Its a 368 300hp automatic with every single option that could have came on the car except seat belts. The car is going to be sold at the Me*** indy auction May 16th at 5:50pm, lot number W284 at No reserve, should be a good time. This car runs and drives like a dream, hate to sell it, but its to nice to keep and to large to store. This car has power windows, seats, steering, brakes, top, with automatic latches, foot controled radio, automatic front end lube system, electronic eye, power wing windows, 2 heater cores, huge everything, and a power antenna, just loaded with tons of stuff. They made about 3676 of these cars, but you really dont see many, 2 doors or 4 doors either, convertibles are just rare. Its been a long project, but had alot of fun restoring it with the family.
