Re: 1961-69 Lincoln Continental....Lincoln's finest?

I'm curious as to how they drove. Were they as gawdawful sloppy and isolated as their '70s bretheren? Did the 430 and later the 462 (Ford's largest V8, ever) provide ample power? What surprised me was their size....they're not as long as they look. They stand 213 inches from stem to stern. The '90s deVilles were all in the 205-209 inch range, the '90s Town Cars were a bit longer at 217-219 inch, the '90s Caprice/Roadmasters were 215-218 inches and their younger bretheren, the '70s Continentals were 229-234 inches long.
