1967 Lincoln Continental Convertible VIP & Government Parade Car
The 1967 Lincoln Continental Convertible VIP & Government Parade Car is a distinctive and historic vehicle manufactured in November of 1966. Commissioned as a 'marketing car' by Ford Motor Company specifically for presidential motorcades and parades, this classic convertible was built at the Wixom, Michigan assembly plant. Originally based in New York, it served in various VIP motorcades, including those of President Johnson and Pope Paul VI during his visit to New York City in 1965. The car features a spacious interior, characteristic of Lincolns from this era, and boasts a powerful engine that allows it to maintain its prestige even after six decades. Currently located in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, this Continental is not just a vehicle; it's a testament to American automotive history and culture.
