I've never understood the motivation behind aesthetically modifying a car to the point of it being nearly useless, but I appreciate the talent that went into making this one. And as long as the owner enjoys it, that's all that matters.
Agreed. I saw a video of a car " restoration" and what they were doing was putting in non authentic parts till it was not representative of the original classic car at all. I would thing the value of such a car would go down alot because anyone buying it would not be getting the real deal
It’s not useless! It’s a cruiser, like a low rider. Just something to have fun in on the weekends and at car shows. I’m pretty sure these guys have other cars that they as daily drivers or for functionality. You have to be a “car guy” to appreciate the skill, artistry, time and effort that it takes to fabricate and produce something like this; then again you don’t bcuz regular people who are not necessarily “car enthusiasts” appreciate these as well. When a guy modifies a car, such as body kits, performance or a cool paint job, he’s putting his own personality into it. Once again, this is a just a toy, something to have fun cruising in besides the norm and also an eye catcher as well as a conversation piece, that’s all. C’mon, lighten up folks! 🤷🏽♂️
My mom had a Lincoln continental when I was a kid back in the 80s it was silver with maroon soft fabric seats it was nice this video made me think of it 👍🏼
The original design of that car is to die for; Wide, Long, Spacious, Excessive, Massive trunk, Simple but elegant styling, Crazy uniqueness, and best of all, TIMELESS!
My grandma on my mom's side had a couple of those..she lived on top of a little mountain and had to drive up a windy dirt road to get home, potholes and all. She was badass. She liked big cars..made her feel safe.😁😆
If he drove that where I am there'd be a shower of sparks every pothole and drain cover. We'd be placing bets on how far he can get, a few miles maybe.
The body lines atop the fenders were more rounded as well. 'The Car' is the reason that I clicked this video though. It's good to know there are other fans out there
In Sweden im sure we have more old american cars per capita than you do. Their all over the place, well from spring to fall atleast. But their pretty damn far away from being as big as our trucks, wich are quite standard size all over europe. Main difference witch american trucks is we have total allowed lenghts thats why our cabins are on top of the engine to allow for more loading space. But if uou cut the hood of a peterbuilt It aint much difference from a Swedish made one in size.
I'm longing back to those good old V8 ( and some V6 ) sounds. This lincoln, the Cadillac Eldorado, Chevrolet Constantia, Ford Cortina XR6, Ford Granada, Ford Ranchero V8, etc. The only recent car with a sound that gives you goosebumps is the 2008 Chrysler Grand Cherokee SRT8, with those central exhaust pipes.
Ford really needs to do a modern version of this like they did with the GT40/Ford GT. BIG block & big power, suicide doors, higher backed seats, and low to the ground.
Amazing car, 50mm more ground clearance and I'd like to own it one day. Fantastic look and sound, yet crying out to be raised just a *bit*. Didn't read the description before writing this, does it have air ride? if not, it needs it. Still an awesome machine, should be preserved forever.
If you listen very closely, you can hear him hit the air switch twice and raise it ever so subtly to make sure he has clearance when he drives up on the uneven brick paved part.
I love seeing old American cars in Europe. Curious as to how you made the 462 cubic inch engine what was your starting point and what did you do to it?
462 was the factory engine displacement in Lincolns 1966 thru mid 1968. It's the end of the MEL (Mercury-Edsel-Lincoln) engine design introduced in 1958. The MEL was also made in 383, 410, and 430 displacements.

I’m with ya
Yeah I’ve been sayin that a long time now.. the rat rod thing is absurd as well… so is patina… & that Lincoln looks like shit

Facts!
My grandpa was on the design team!! Luxury ergonomics was his thing. Very cool.
It is NOT timeless. 1000 years from now it will be a heap of rust somewhere.
"The Car" is alive and well!
Look closer, the car was made out of a 71 mark 3, this is a mark 2
great movie btw
@G-Shack 1970 dude it was late 70's, early 80s when that movie was made and it scared the shit out of me as a kid, now its a cult classic
So this is what that cargo ship that blocked the Suez Canal looks like on land. 🤔
Nah,this is bigger👌
They both scrape land too much
haha
@@Ryan-sw6jx 🤣💀
@@Ryan-sw6jx
✔️ Yeah, and both the Suez canal cargo ship, AND ^this "cargo ship" will require large tugboats to "dislodge them" when they get stuck!
I never thought I'd say a vinyl top looked good on this side of the 70'z. Beautiful car.
You never lied! I do not like vinyl tops but this is smooth. What year is this Lincoln
That thing is GORGEOUS
Amen, a-damn-men
I'd say that if it wasn't chopped
i think the most impressive part is that this was in the Netherlands.
It sweet as fuck doe lol
Snapjeeee

The movie the car.
God what a beutiful car. I love how you actually record the sound of the motor. Most videos dont do the sound, you do. its great!
Imagines everyone's looking at him with envy , but it's just them waiting for him to get the fuck out of the way.
If he drove that where I am there'd be a shower of sparks every pothole and drain cover. We'd be placing bets on how far he can get, a few miles maybe.
That car has to be bagged. I bet he can lift that Link when he needs to.
Oh that must be in Chicago right
Do you live in Germany too?
Ya those ghetto wheels and rubber band tires lol
gruwelijk mooi
Now that's what I call "BIG PIMPIN"!!! One of the dopest big body whips I've seen. Chopping that roof made it that gangsta swag for sure! Love it!
Awesome build. Bad ass Lincoln. GF1 👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁😁😎
Coolest car ever beautiful work guys
In the early 70's Eldon Titus did one if of these I loved it then and I still it today. A real hot rod Lincoln.
It’s no hot rod lol it had like 140 horsepower

I have a 1977 Lincoln continental. You just gave me a lot of good ideas. Thank you.
This guy is literally down to earth
The body lines atop the fenders were more rounded as well.
'The Car' is the reason that I clicked this video though. It's good to know there are other fans out there
Was “The Car” a continental? Haven’t watched the movie in years
@@ithinkweregoingtoneedabigg8525 Yep. Heavily modified by the great George Barris into an understated yet menacing creation
Looks Wicked and Wild! Like the movie "THE CAR"
that's it, i knew i seen this car somewhere. now the aggressive chop makes sense.
I scrolled down the comments looking for this comment!! And yes, it does bring back memories of that movie !
Got to love a bad ass Ford and there's only one color to paint a badass Ford I think you got this ride right all the way around hats off to you 😎
Motor must be loud to make the sound of scratching metal on the ground disappear...
Good one. Luvved it.
Cool ending with the bonus photos. Nice
Normally I hate when someone bastardizes a classic, but DAMN that looks good!!!
You what they say. It is not what you do, it's how you do it.
@ 1:31 I was like is that a 12 year old smoking a cigarette?
Looks like what my neighbor drove back then. Straight up badass.
When a Lincoln looked like a Lincoln... That is a cool-looking mod.
When your car eats more fuel with 1 turn than other cars at 100km. :D Beautiful machine.
Love how ppl take the original design and put their own spin on it and make it their own.
Man, this Lincoln dwarfs everything on those European streets. Including some trucks!
to be fair, it would dwarf most of the stuff on american streets nowadays, too... How long is it? 900ft?
In Sweden im sure we have more old american cars per capita than you do. Their all over the place, well from spring to fall atleast.
But their pretty damn far away from being as big as our trucks, wich are quite standard size all over europe.

But if uou cut the hood of a peterbuilt It aint much difference from a Swedish made one in size.
Brilliant, exterior makes a beautiful car even cooler. Love that Zebra skin as well, looks like the one on my wall.
What do you mean by Zebra skin? Explain please!
Wow, stuff like this just make my heart beat faster... And just listen to that sound.
I'm longing back to those good old V8 ( and some V6 ) sounds.

Welcone to the netherlands, speedbumps EVERYWERE!!

BIG block & big power, suicide doors, higher backed seats, and low to the ground.
Elijah Robinson exactly. You said my words..... I’m a big fan of these type of low riders....
Very cool! Nice to see polished wheels instead of black for a change!
Holy fuck this is insane. Love it :)
That’s the coolest Lincoln I’ve ever seen. And I’m 52
I always loved the old school Lincolns, massive cars but they just look like an old school mobster should be getting out of them.
Beautiful..very smooth. Tiger print interior with original design, and hike up the height a little more.
1:32 I guess smoking really does stunt your growth.
And thay ruined picture of very low car :D
Epic stunt
Haha, I was looking for the comment that addressed this
prachtige aso bak en klinkt goed!

I’ve never been a fan of those Lincoln’s but that’s dope
Love the outside, hate the inside and it needs airbags in front for getting in and out of driveways.
Outside= outstanding interior= tacky as fuck.
It's a classic
Looks and sounds bad ass 👍
What a gorgeous car!
MMM I like that. Not keen in the interior, but I'm loving the chopped, murdered out exterior.
Beautiful!!! The only thing I would personally do different is the tires & wheels.
pfffftttt... ok, slick.
I appreciate the work put into the car. Just Too Low.
Not a Ford guy. Not into lowered cars. BUT, that's just too cool! Respect!
1:31 a child smoking ?
Adalberto Gomes Macedo Filho Midget
I was kidding... ;)
Yup.... they just put out his fire
Adalberto Gomes Macedo Filho No, just a regular good old MIDGET.

That is a sweet looking car.
Pure gangsta!°
That is so dope! Love the wheels!
BEAST!!! LOVE CHOPPED TOP!!! BLACKED OUT ✌
Watching utube .
Hghhhhjjjjjnnk
Love it ! Beautiful !!
Better with the original roof
Christian Sanden...You're wrong...
Branon Fontaine I like the original, its my opinion, to say right or wrong, is wrong
thats right.
+Branon Fontaine - No, you're wrong!
Fucking right man!!
Absolutely beautiful
Why mess with perfection?
This ride was perfect from the factory
You frankeinsteined it good
All that work will be ruined after a few miles drive
*Boom Chakalaka* This is not a "project", it is a flattening whose result is a steel cockroach.
A very lmpressive beast that commands respect!
Is the paint Rust-Oleum semi-gloss?
Krylon
it is no wonder it is considered a land boat, it is huge and powerful
like the song said, "slow and low, that is the tempo"
Che mostro ragazzi , ma la Lincoln del film è tutta un'altra cosa!!!
Вот это техника я понимаю!👍🔥
My dad always drove one of these, he tried a Cadillac once, didn't like it and went back to driving a black Lincoln again.
But can it go over a speed bump?
Stunning. I always wanted to chop the roof of my supercharged Vanden Plas Jag.
Everything looks better with a chopped roof.
У вас тоже привстал?)))
Аж ничаяно сам себя членом вырубил
Даже встал
К нам такую машину привезти это просто НЕ РЕАЛЬНО ((( ебучий Казахстан... так что парни сорян, у меня упал ☠😓
Good luck with the speed bumps. Painted one of theses. 👍
Waiting for one of the Munsters to exit the vehicle 💀
I love it! it looks like the car that was in... THE CAR
Magnífico , maravilhoso e intenso !
Looks as menacing as the car from the movie The Car. Absolute beauty!
This is what The Car was based on.
Fabuloso perfeito
One of the few cars that didn't need a chop. Bagged on wide white wall tires and nothing more would be my style.
Qué nave, nunca vi algo igual....
En vivo? Ha de ser magnífico!!!
Even though I have an old continental on my channel, Yours tops the cake!
only on air
. no Problem. in germany we drive with a coilover Static on the road.
Thats a beautiful car.
Sooooo that’s how to destroy a nice car.
Or let’s take an iconic car and make it look comical 😂
Damn. What a lovely car.
Scraping the crap out of the bottom of the car.
