1956 Continental Mark II. This Continental was Bought brand new at kitchen-Boyd in Bakersfield California. The original owner was Philip Zobelein, Owner of the Los Angeles Brewing company. They made East Side beer. Even comes with an east side beer can. He sold the business to Pabst Blue Ribbon in 1943. Phillip retired in 1954. His daughter married the son of a Lincoln & Mercury dealer in Bakersfield California, the Kitchen in 'Kitchen Boyd'. Where he must of got a great deal on this new Continental Mark II. He bought many lincolns through the year but keep this one to the end. He lived in Beverly Hills till his death in 1973, and that's when the car was sold.The engine was rebuilt about 3500 miles ago, the millage shows just over 10,000 but I am sure it was rolled back when it had its restoration, cause in no way does it seem to be a 110,000 mile car. Owner has the original carburetor but it has been replaced with an Edelbrock and boy it runs beautiful. The suspension has been redone new coils in the front and new leafs in the rear. the wipers work. The front seat has been redone by the previous owner in vinyl, they look great but needs to be redone in leather to be correct. as far as the rest of the interior it is correct leather.Recently won the Lincoln Trophy at the Lincoln and Continental Owners Club Western National meet in Grand Junction in July of this year. The steering box has been recently replaced. Owner replaced the speaker system with a hidden audio unit so you can't see it but you can play music off your iPod/iPhone and it sounds great. The tires are American classic radials from Coker tires. All windows work except for the passenger rear quarter window but owner is working on getting that fixed at the moment. seat moves forward & back. turn signals work. brakes work, The Treadle Vac was rebuilt back in oct of 2015 and new Brake shoes and wheel cylinders were put on at that time. Less than 1500 miles on them.Trim: Mark IIDoors: 2
