1965 Lincoln Continental Convertible Professionally Restored by SELLUXE. 
REASONABLE RESERVE SET. 61K original miles.  Nine month restoration.  Less then 10 miles has been logged on the car for test driving since the restoration completion.
Prior to the restoration: The car was in very nice condition in it's unrestored state.
The car was in great working order in regards to the engine, brakes, electronics and the convertible top working.  Very minimal rust on the entire car.  Once the old carpet was removed, we noticed some very small pin holes on the drivers side floor board, passenger side floor board and the driver side / passenger floor board so we cut out a the few small sections described and professionally welded back thicker / stronger floor panels to ensure no future issues (Pictures of this process can be provided upon request). Other than the pin holes in a few areas of the floor boards, the undercarriage, rockers, fenders, quarter panels, trunk lid, hood and doors were in very good shape to begin with.
The under carriage is super clean and also show cases that this car has no rust.  Would be glad to provide any undercarriage and wheel well pictures to show that it is in perfect condition. 
The Lincoln's motor has a real nice and healthy deep sound and it idles great.
