The leather cabin was done by Ron Mangus Interiors.

Under the custom hood is a color-matched Ford 5.0-liter “Coyote” V-8 topped with an Edelbrock manifold.

This restomod pays tribute to the original Continental, which was, in a word, clean. It was also the most expensive automobile made in the U.S. at the time.
-
The gauges, by Classic Instruments, are detailed with custom logos approved by Ford.

As part of the customization, the car had its roof chopped by nearly two inches, necessitating a complete re-fabrication of all glass and window trim.

A quintessential restomod, this is a thoroughly modern car, equipped with power rack-and-pinion steering, air conditioning, and power windows.
