Welcome aboard. I love your Lincoln, very cool car.
I bet living in Texas is a whole lot cheaper than living in Hawaii.

Plenty elegant ride, Kalani!
Make plans to drive it up to Texas Motor Speedway the next time the "Good Guys" bash is here and let us North Texas types take a look at it.
Oh, yeah, .... And welcome aboard!

Welcome to CHR. That is a very nice Lincoln, do you know if it had been restored or was it a nice preserved original? Have any pictures of the inside? It would be a comfortable car for the long trips for sure, maybe a little thirsty on the fuel but worth it.

Thanks for the additional pictures; you have a rolling piece of American history from the GOOD OLD DAYS.Congratulations on such a great find. The car looked good going down the highway, be careful and don’t start any forest fires.
I could imagine how expensive it would be to live in Hawaii. I had a friend from Hawaii when I was in the Army back in the 60’s. He said if I ever come too Hawaii look him up and he would save me some money on seeing the sights. I’ll do you like people over here when they hear that you’re from a certain area. Did you ever hear of a person by the name of, I won’t give his first name for known reasons, Tachahashi I may have misspelled it but I will never forget the name? Enjoy the car,and this side of the pond.

Welcome to CHR, Kalani! Had to be tough giving up the Islands for the Mainland and Texas, even though a lot cheaper here then there. Great looking Lincoln, that's an excellent find.Bob
A good friend will come and bail you out of jail....but a true friend will be sitting next to you saying..."Damn....that was fun!
