Pictures show a good parts car..it's equipped with overdrive so that much is worth saving. It appears to be a complete car that's sporting Kaiser hubcaps and an aftermarket hood ornament.

The 67 Lincoln pictured has the optional convertible interior. I had a nearly identical car and it was a very comfortable car to drive long distances. It drank premium fuel at a rate of about 12 mpg highway, but would run along at 80 mph all day long. One interesting feature is that the windshield wipers run off a pump that's attached to the front of the engine giving the wipers almost infinitely variable speeds - I could set them to barely creep along, great for driving in a light rain. 1967 was the last full year for the 462 engine in the Lincoln lineup. It was replaced by the 460 in mid-68.

I was literally 10 minutes from Ackley, IA six weeks ago...
