    Just got a 69 continental

    Just got a 69 continental for Free, from meanvic84, it needs restoration but the undercarage is good and nearly rust free, the drivers side rear quarter and door are bent up pretty bad but i can fix that, the other 3 doors are mint, trunk lid is good, frt fenders need a bit of work, and the front end has some damage, but i am able to take parts of the other brown 69,
    its got a 460 but they are keeping that, but i have a 400 im going to drop in, the interior is missing the seats but the rest is all there, and i know where i can get seats anyways, since there is a 69 at the yard i go to.. well here are some pics, cant wait to get her home and get started on it...













    and here are a few pics of whats left of the other car i can take parts off

    Looks like it needs a new headlight. :p

    Neat project, though, mang!

                One of my Fav Fords of all time, without a doubt.

                You have a helluva lot of work to do there with that one mang.

                Good luck with your project, and most of all have fun with it!

                    Let them keep the 460 - those heater core coolant lines along the right-hand valve cover make it a royal bitch to adjust the e-choke anyways!
