Well now I know, and I thank you sir for responding.

Hi guys, anyone know of or can recall the fellow that owned the classic car dealership below in North Carolina? They sold a car years ago the I currently own and I’d like to get more information on it, if at all possible. I believe it was owned by a Mr. Don Hayes. Thanks! Thunderbird Barn 2919 Elkin Highway 268 North Wilkesboro, NC 28659

According to one source: Of 191,355 Lincolns produced in 1977, but 1347 of the lovely 2 doors and 1591 of the 4 doors had this option. Yes, when new the solid glass roof was a rare bird, but now probably rarer still! 1.5% of production.

Yes, I’ve been slowly restoring this car since last November. I guess I can’t help myself! So while it gets better looking and more drivable, the cost keep going up. Here is a more recent picture: But like I said, I’m happy to just keep it. The glass top numbers were not recorded, but estimates run between 1,000 and 3,000 in coupes and sedans in the 1977 - 1979. The glass tops were not available in 1980. They were about the same cost as a moonroof, which of course while smaller, did open up. So naturally far fewer glass tops than moonroofs were sold.

Thanks John, and yes I have put a good deal of money into the car since the original listing including new tires, restored tank & fuel system, professionally rebuilt carb, headliner and a bunch of other items. I’m asking $8K, but I’ll take the first decent offer, as long as my costs are covered. And if I don’t get any offers at all, I’ll just keep it. I really love the thing, and it’s super rare and yes the glass is 100% factory original (installed by ASC). It even carries a Ford “Car-Llite” decal. The story on this Lincoln is that I saved it in the last moment, from going on a TV show in which one of the “artists with a sawzall” was about mutilate it for his own personal gratification. I couldn’t let that happen.

Guys, I have a ‘77 Lincoln Continental with an intermittent wiper system. I’d like to replace the switch, but they are hard to locate. I’d like to rebuild my original. Anyone provide this service?

This is an old post, but by chance is the bumper Jack still available?

Hi all, anyone have the lengths of the old shorter (Ford) and the longer 47-48 Lincoln starter armatures? I believe the old unit is 1/4" shorter than the 47-48 units. Thanks in advance.

Seriously?

Im not sure it’s a case of training or education………it’s lack of judgement
