Default '56 Continental Mark II

City: Seminole
State: FL
Price: 15,000

1956 Continental for sale. Listed on the Mark II forum (markIIforum.com). I work for the government and so even though we are back to work I need to downsize!
I have done a top end engine rebuild. (the car runs great!) New exhaust, re-cored the radiator, rebuilt the brakes to include the powerbooster, have 110%of the parts to put it back together! I hate to sell, but I need to gone! The car is ready for the "pretty parts"....and the next owner is luckier than I was! asking $15,000 but obviously negotiable. The car is in the Tampa Bay area. 404-917-4120

"New information: It's been great talking with several of you about my car, let me try and answer some of the most common questions...

1.) I have do not have conclusive George Barris documentation! (IMO Least important thing about the car, just fun speculation)
2.) The car is not a parts car! It is a running, driving, registered, tagged, and insured automobile! Can be seen frequently driving up and down the beach. Not the prettiest condition but definitely the prettiest car!
3.) The car is 110% complete. No missing pieces and some extra (things I've gathered but not installed). Some parts of the car are disassembled as I've been repairing as I moved along. Didn't make sense to put things back on that would need to come off prior to paint and body. Nothing that affects drivability or safety or street legal-ness is apart. I drive this car!
4.) Any customization was very mild, already undone or repaired, or will be in the paint and body phase. It was not my plan to reem-Barris this car!

Still for sale! Somebody buy it. Price negotiable, not free for the hauling.
