Continental production reached its peak in 1977, with over 95K units being produced. In the final year of production, more than 92K Continentals were manufactured.
A rare 1970 Continental recently appeared on eBay, capturing the attention of collectors. The car is in pristine condition, with no rust and the original paint. It has a remarkably low mileage of only 28K and comes with a flawless interior. This all-original, unrestored vehicle has remained in the same family since its purchase from the dealership by the owner’s grandfather. The current owners inherited the car a year ago and now have the title in their name.
This Continental is a true survivor, with no reconditioning or replacement of parts. It remains in the same configuration as when it first rolled off the assembly line. While it may require minor repairs to the body, such as a dent on the passenger fender, overall it is in excellent condition. A good wash will bring out its shine and make it look like a brand-new car.
With only 28K miles on the odometer, this Continental has been sparingly driven. It has only been taken out of the garage for occasional rides. The interior is flawless, showing minimal signs of use.
The selling price of the car is currently unknown, as the owner has set a reserve. The highest offer so far is $5,900, but it remains to be seen if it will meet the reserve. The auction will continue for another five days before a winning bid is determined.
Located in Antioch, California, this Continental is ready to be driven anywhere. However, due to its low mileage and pristine condition, it may be best to transport it on a trailer and keep it in storage. This survivor deserves to be cherished and taken out for leisurely drives on sunny Sundays.
