Potential? or Sell?

So I have this 1975 Lincoln Conintental Coupe. It's got 76,000k original miles on it, it runs pretty decent, it's got a straight body, and the interior is a pretty nice leather.

So should I spend the time and money to pimp the car out, and make it nice looking? or should I just sell the car and forget about it.

I was thinking like a Gloss Black, as the chrome is in very nice condition, tinting the windows, and putting some 22's on the wheels. Maybe 4 10" subs in the rear, as you can fit like at least 10 dead hookers back there.


Just curious what your alls opinions are on a car like this... Should I play with it? or just sell it to another person.

so, it comes down to what you want to do with it. the down side is that it isnt particularly a collector car, gets bad mileage, rides like a boat, every $ that you put into it is a $ that you wont see again. the up side- low miles for year, not many around, good platform for mega stereo, no smog inspection.... your choice (i wouldnt do it, though)

hit it with a hammer a couple times then send a video to Pimp My Ride. Im sure they could hook you up with some waterfalls, videoscreens and afold out ping-pong table. Nothing screams PIIIIIIIIIIMP like ping-pong.

(personally i would sell it)

Sell it, just putting rims on it will cost you a lot more than you will get out of it. With low miles and clean someone might pick it up off ebay for a decent price.

I'd leave it just the way it is, and use it for dead hooker storage. It's hard to find a convenient, yet suitable, place to keep dead hookers these days. hmmmm.......I should buy it.

i say keep it and put on some switches for the bitches and fill the trunk with batteries and sterio crap, 13" gold D's with 10 switch show time hydros', crushed velvet interior all over, gold chain steering wheel, stretched white wall tires, and swap motor with a SVT Cobra motor add a supercharger with nos, bada bing bada boom you got yourself the most OG ride ever.
