1956 Continental Mark II
1956 Continental Mark II
1956 Continental Mark II
1956 Continental Mark II
Half of the fun for me in restoring this 1956 Continental Mark II, is finding out more and more about the history of this specific vehicle and connecting the dots and putting all of the pieces of the puzzle together to get a pretty good picture of the owners and whereabouts of where these gems were from the factory to the streets from one owner to the next through different eras, right up to now as it sits in my driveway! For the longest time I was wondering why there was no purchase order for my Mark II, but after recently seeing a production order invoice for my car I can now see why! My specific vehicle was specially made for Leonard K. Firestone of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, Leonard was the son of the founder of Firestone, Harvey S. Firestone, the Firestone family were all very close to the Ford family, Leonard’s niece Martha who was the daughter of Harvey Jr. was married to William Clay Ford Jr. and for those of us “Continental Mark II enthusiasts” who have done our homework, we know that William Clay Ford Jr. was the “Ford” that was in charge of and led the way for the seperate Continental division of Ford that made the “Continental Mark II” in 1956 and a short run in 1957, and thus dropped the “Lincoln” from the title during this period, so basically the Ford’s and the Firestones were Family, which is why on all of the 1956-57 Continental Mark II’s they all came equipped with “Firestone Champion Deluxe” tires. Harvey Firestone who was Leonard Firestones Father often vacationed with Henry Ford and Thomas Edison and they referred to themselves as “The Vagabonds” and were recognized as the three leaders in American industry in that era. I find all of this very interesting and it makes it even more of a joy to be restoring a classic beauty with that much history involved with it. A production order two tone paint job made specifically for Leonard Kimball Firestone! I plan on restoring this vehicle back to its original condition and color scheme as much as possible, I love the two tone paint, from what I understand only 68 were ever produced with two tone paint jobs! And this is one of them!

This 1969 Plymouth Road Runner hardtop model failed to sell at auction recently with its owner refusing to part with it for just $37,440. The car has undergone two major refurbishments, one in the 1990s and another one more recently in July of this year.
The first-generation Plymouth Road Runner was cool right out of the gate. This was a performance vehicle, which is why all of its original engine options were extremely potent. You had the “entry-level” 383 ci V8 with its 335 horsepower and 425 lb-ft of torque, which as far as base engines go, was no pushover.
Then came the 426 Hemi V8 (chronologically), followed by the so-called 440 Six-Pack (or Six-Barrel) – bigger displacement, less power, same torque; compared to the Hemi. What stood out to most people was that the 440 Six-Pack was more affordable than the Hemi and it excelled in terms of mid-range and torque.
It produced its 490 lb-ft of torque at 3,200 rpm, whereas the Hemi wanted you to push all the way to 4,000 rpm for the same grunt. Now, the 440 unit was officially rated at 390 hp, but a lot of people believe that number to be underrated. It’s worth mentioning.
This particular Road Runner started off with a 383 ci V8 under the hood but would later receive the 440 ci V8 with a trio of two-barrel carburetors. Originally, it had a Limelight Metallic exterior with white longitudinal stripes but was repainted yellow during refurbishment.
Other current visual highlights include the black fiberglass lift-off hood, Road Runner graphics, chrome bumpers, dual side mirrors, chrome exhaust outlets, plus a set of black H-series-style 15” wheels with 235/60 front and 295/50 rear Diamond Back red-line tires.
Moving on to the interior, that’s where you’ll find the black vinyl front bucket seats and rear bench, a color-coordinated dashboard, the Hurst shift
