Lincoln Continental 1966

In automotive history it's often said, if there were two cars made, then one of them will be in New Zealand somewhere. 

Today we feature our first video attempt to make a record of a damper we are rebuilding: a beautiful Lincoln Continental from 1966.

And on YouTube we find an original commercial from 1966 of the latest Lincoln Continental and all the latest fab up-to-date features.

Our aim in the future on our YouTube channel is to share with you a few of the secrets, joys and heartaches of rebuilding and remanufacturing harmonic dampers and crank pulleys from the many and varied parts that cross our work bench. 

Currently on the rebuild shelf we have a 1917 Studebaker harmonic damper. We aim to show you how we work on a rare and precious part like this to bring it back from the dead, to make it into a functioning part which the owner can fit with confidence to his vehicle.
