I purchased it from I think the original owners nephew. It has spent it's entire life in Southern California. Not a speck of rust was found when we removed the original paint during the build. It was completely dis-assembled and built at the Lincoln dealership here in San Diego. I run the body shop . and it's my personal car. Everything that was done to this car was done by a certified tech using the best materials. no shortcuts were taken anywhere. I built this car to be a reliable and fun cruiser. and even though as it usually happens things got way out of hand. it still continues to be that. It doesn't run hot. it starts. it idles. it pulls hard to red line. it cruises down the freeway with ease. and it doesn't disappoint. In some of the pictures the car sits higher or lower. it comes with the bits to adjust the suspension up an inch in the front and up or down a few inches in the back. When building this car. the last thing I had in mind was to to sell it. It was built to last a long long time. Tony
