1963 Lincoln Continental Suicide Doors Convertible

[ad1997]

Way to slow your girl would complain how long it takes to lock up the car if you go any place

[potissimus]

either this is in slow motion, or im REALLY high.

[Benzfever]

Outstanding...

when I hear the European Car makers bragging about their convertible, Ford came up in the 50's with the Skyline etc. fully automated convertibles

[pskittle488]

Actually there is room in the trunk for one (1) golf club (slightly bent, of course) and a small box of golf balls, seperated. Maybe a pack of chewing gum.

This is my dream car for sure! I first saw this car in the Matrix movies. It's the car Neo gets in to when they pick him up under the bridge and the one they drive throughout the first movie. I love bench seats and suicide doors.

[estesoyojajaja]

why those doors were call SUICIDE DOORS?

[DoctorVing]

haha look it up on WIKIPEDIA

[CanadaCraig]

Hi estesoyojajaja!! :o)

Suicide doors [Rear hinged doors] got their name because IF the door wasn't shut properly - it could be forced open by the wind - allowing a passenger to fall out. [Back in 'those day' - don't forget - no one wore seat belts]

[the70stang]

Cause if you try to bail out of the car you will just get smashed by the door.

[curak76]

I recently got the same model only in black from my grampa

[lucaswlson]

dope!!!!!!!

[mkallday818]

How much would you sell it for

[shambayati195]

ha now im curoius why theyre called suicide doors

[haymon122]

they open the other way......

[shambayati195]

so they call them suicide why?

[ShahnamPersia]

I guess cuz It takes toooo much time to open, that u rather kill urself! :p

[haymon122]

idk why? look it up on wikipedia

[shambayati195]

ok that was my question in the first place tho

[Duckman1616]

Because no matter what direction the car is moving, if someone is jumping out of the vehicle in both the front and back, you're going to get hit by the doors. So if you are driving towards a cliff, if you and the person sitting behind you both ditch, the back door will hit you. If you're going backward and you both ditch, the front door will hit you.

[shambayati195]

haha cool

[MrTotopop]

they were named that because if you open the doors while driving they'll kill you

[ipkurazzfan45]

lol the convertible is so lsow!!

[cossedbuns]

Is this for sale?

[nicolesuncle]

With the top about half-way down, stand in the interior of the car, and spray each and every joint in the top frame with high-quality libricant. Run the top up and down. Spray it again. Keep a moist cloth to clean-up excess spray. Up/down. NOW, the top will not strain so much after it leaves the windshield header.

[carlita2885]

whoa!!!!!! good vid!

i want some sexy subscribers! of

[NeilSpires]

Was it originally a convertable?If not howmuch did the conversion cost you?

[Xiber1]

is there room for luggage in the trunk?

[otisredn]

nada

[chikotube]

never liked the slow-mo mechanics. gotta take that up a notch!

[JxT1957]

i remember my 67 lincoln with the gangster doors,i painted it black and put wide gangster whitewalls on it.what a car!

[sagittariusactive]

Breathtaking! Is there any space for luggage in the trunk after the top has folded down?

[otisredn]

absolutely . . . not!

[samburger]

now that is class!

[jamesflananov]

thank you so much for that as i'm obsessed w/ that car and intend to own one soon. check out a movie called "CRASH" from 1996 W/ James Spader take care / james

[heiner282828]

This is my Dream Car..

[parakeets4me69]

MY GOD! What a absolutely beautiful car! The windows will go down half way automatically when you start the top to go down. Now that's what i call a Lincoln!!Today's Lincoln is nothing compared to these. Your lucky if you get a single piece of chrome on them. And look at the room! You can actually fit a whole family or group of people inside comfortable with room to spare. The whole car is very clean lined. And Ford has the nerve to ask $50,000 + for there new junk?!

[dadgenius]

As Bob Hope use to say...Thanks for the memories! The sixties rule!

[burnafatty]

i dind't even watch the video because its so badass
