    I'm very sure that what ever you do pick will be an outstanding choice. Now Brad I've shared this video with my 2 sons and appreciate the fact that you apologized to your pop for cutting him off. From one pop to another you've done an amazing job with your son and it shows so great on screen your relationship. God keep you and bless you both

    I don't know why unibody cars with rust underneath are so intimidating, but plenty of people deal with it in Mustangs, Camaros, Chargers, Novas, Cougars and dozens more.

    Owning a 61 hardtop and a 62 Conv. You guys should switch to a caddy. Yes you can build any body To make it cool. But you still have Lincoln gremlins. Take spare tire out and remove the cover to see the six relays. That only work the back door windows. Two heater cores one in each front fender behind removable fender tub. All vacuum controlled. With plastic fittings that fall apart. Don’t forget the power steering pump behind the front pulley and then there’s the top relays . Fun to work on. Caddy’s are easier to build and have a frame. Food for thought. Cheers.

    I'm not typically the type of guy to "fanboy" over humans. I'm just a few years older than your Dad. But you 2 are my favorite. You are so inspiring and your fathers love for you is palatable through the screen. Of all the folks I follow you 2 one of the few that I think we would get along so well. I do hope someday after I buy a new house and get settled that I could come up for some type of "open house" thing (I would never just show up). I have ideas I would love to share on pushing your business and YT to new levels. You guys deserve a much larger audience.

    If you are looking for a one of a kind build after this one. My friend has a 1936 Packard 120 convertible that run's, drives but need's floor and trunk pan's. The body and frame are solid. The flathead 8 has been rebuilt and has only been driven in and out of the shop a few times. $20k and you can own it.

    I'm so glad that you decided to leave this car as it is! I could see doing this to a beater that as you say is rusted all over underneath and is on its way to becoming scrap metal. But these convertibles in nice solid condition are too valuable to do anything other then Factory OEM Restoration IMO.

    There is a lot of metal on these beauties, any tiny imperfection shows more on dark cars so my first thought would be a lighter color. I loved Elvis’ gold 1960 caddy.

    Personally, ever since you’ve got the Lincoln, I have agreed with your father Brad. I would have redone that car original. I know what’s in your head as far as what you’d like to do with it and yes, I think that would be amazing to do with a hardtop, but you guys have an excellent shape convertible and I think the possibility of putting a fair amount of cash in your account comes with doing that car original

      They literally said why.. they don’t have the time, if they were full time on UA-cam and had some more equipment and endless amount of free time then they wouldn’t mind it as much. It’s all about time and money, just like everything else in the world. FYI a lot of those people that “ deal with it” end up having a shop or something else handle the rust, look at demo ranch, Matt has tons of projects and is capable of so many other things, but he still needs to send things to shops here and there. These guys don’t do that, it’s. Just. Them.

    what do you think about buying that $4000 car in California to use the hardtop off it to build a removable hard top for your convertible? How cool would it be to have the best of both worlds ... a convertible for cruising with a bolt on/clip on hardtop accessory for the car shows to get the look you want? Talk about never been done before.

    I would keep the convertible, and by the $4000 one just for the roof, and mod it to be a removable hard top.
    The convertible unibody will be more robust, because they couldn't rely on the hard top for structure. (Typically why convertibles are heavier than their hard top counterparts)

    Those old lincolns were very prone to rust. Even the ones in New Mexico or Arizona or even West Texas, where it is so dry, they rust. Growing up, my dad had an auto body shop, and someone brought in one of those big lincoln's to paint and repair, and my dad said no. And this was in the late seventies. Do they make replacement panels for those cars I don't know.

    I would keep the one you have until you have a replacement of equal or better quality. I would have to put eyes on whatever I was considering as a replacement. Nothing beats seeing it in person as you undoubtedly know. Considering how many you've looked at and for how long you've been looking you may already have the best Lincoln in your garage. It sounds like you have some kind of deadline as well. With all this in mind I would think I would explore as many possibilities to create your own hardtop. It could be metal or fiberglass or carbon fiber. I heard you mention it would be thousands to make the top but considering all the other obstacles like a deadline and all the work that you would have to invest in a rusty car it may be worth the money and time. I work for one of the big national auto auctions so I will ask around and see if anyone has any leads I might pass on to you. Best of luck in whatever you decide. ☮️

    Anything you guys do will be amazing. But if your gonna cut up a car shouldn't you cut up one not "rust free". Making and putting a frame under a unibody car shouldn't be too bad for you guys. I do realize why you don't want to and everything I just really enjoy when you guys get a rusty project and take it to the next level.

    Buy a decent one and build your own frame so the unibody issue isnt a big deal. Black and chrome with big chrome wire wheels.
