What’s better than 216.1 inches of 5 passenger personal coupe? Why 216.1 inches of luxury pickup truck, of course. While no price is fronted in the ad for this uniquely modified Lincoln, its innate practicality as a mobile landing field for light aircraft is of immeasurable value.
With only 54K on the clock, this bench-seated behemoth would bring a level of style to your Home Depot runs, and that back-forty will handle bags of manure, as well as the day laborers to do the spreading.
The claim of this being a factory conversion is as confusing as the ad’s grammar, and a quick search of the Internets doesn’t shake another from the tree. But that just makes it all the more a conversation piece for you and the people complaining about it hanging out your driveway and blocking the sidewalk.

Oh, you thought they meant the Lincoln factory. No, it was the factory that does the padded vinyl roof and cargo bed conversions.
It's a Lincoln with a trunk that sleeps 16, instead of the standard 4?
“Factory” = hoon’s basement?
Hey, meth doesn’t make itself, you know…
Now that’s one nice ride. I’m not gonna rant and rave about this like I did the Cadillamino, but I do want.
$3!?! Get me my dialing hat, a cigarette and the telephone.
Eeeeeevil!
I’m close enough that I may just call this dude and go look at it for sheets and geegles! All it needs are the steer horns. WOW.
Here are some for you. However, you’ve got to handle the removal yourself. Good luck. By the way, his name is Snake Eyes, and he’s a bull, not a steer. Bring a handful of hay if you want to get close, or better yet a 120 lb bale. He likes them, cows, and not much else.
You have a typo. It’s a Ranchro. Says so right in the ad.
It was apparently built by Scooby Doo.
Would have gotten away with calling it “factory made” too, if it weren’t for you meddling kids.
Lincon Continetal FTW!
The fact that this vehicle exists troubles me deeply. It could only be made worse by mounting a scary clown organ in the bed.
My guess is that it’s some sort of flower car, but I couldn’t find any more examples of that vintage on teh Google. But I did find this:

Not too sure about this one. I can't stop looking at the awkward roof-line.
Swing and a miss…
Imagine how radical it would look with a camper in the bed. Or, an old school Mini as a spare.
