Sneek Preview - 64 Linc Convert

This area is for those who need help modernizing their Lincoln for purposes other than strict restoration. Such questions can be about adding an electric fuel pump, adding fuel injection, boosting horsepower or gas mileage, or tightening or lowering the suspension. Body customizing and chopping can also be here (although this practice is not encouraged by the LCOC).

Any suggestions out there on an asking price for the Lincoln, I was thinking 75, that's my break even point. A person could not contract a build like this for that amount. Better yet any particular sites out there to offer a car like this for sale besides ebay???

You can set a base price you want (like E-BAY) and if it is not reached you can withdraw.

I agree with KULTULZ. I have been to Barret Jackson in Arizona many times. Cars like yours go for big bucks. Many people with more money than they need get into bidding wars down there. You can also set a Reserve price so if it does not sell you dont have to worry about losing money. When I have been down there I had offers on cars before they went on sale on the block. Try and get yours to sell on a Friday night or Sat night. Cars seem to bring more money on those days.

It's worth a shot. I didn't think you could run a reserve at Barrett Jackson??? I was going to try www.hotrodhotline.com. There's buyers out there just have to find them.

You have to go where the money is to get your investment back.

yeah that's how I remember it. I've already got my 22's just need the rubber. Yours are nice but too much chrome for me. I'm partial to the blacked out look. My cars are more sinister than showy. You should see my Stang with the new rims and rubber. The car is a bright blue now, but if and when I have the time I'll be going with a semi gloss black. It's got graphite coloured Centerlines on it with 295's in the rear, very Road Warrior.

Very sick build man. I'm stoked to see how much detail you put in this thing. Love the truck and how clean it looks with the panels etc that were made. Very impressive indeed!

Thanks for all you comments. This is an excellent site for information and seeing what other Lincoln owners think of the build. As soon as the linkage is finished I will post photos of the intake install. Fingers cross it fits, it the missing link to this build. Then on to the Goodguys Nationals in Columbus. :grin:

Just checking-

You do realize that the outboard carbs are vacuum motor controlled- no manual linkage needed, right?
