Driving toward a golden sunset on the horizon is an awe-inspiring experience, but what about cruising in a Golden Sunset custom 1967 Lincoln Continental coupe? With names attached to it like John D’Agostinso, Gene Winfield, DeRosa Customs and House of Oz, it’s no wonder why this low-slung luxury sofa on wheels is a major attention grabber.

The gleaming two-door hardtop is the brainchild of custom car designer John D’Agostinso of Celebrity Kustoms, who combined the body building skills of Oz’s Kustoms and DeRosa and Son with the skills of craftsman Greg Westbury, and Gene Winfield’s world-renowned talent for applying stunning blended paint combinations. All pot metal welding was completed by Dick Falk at Valley Restorations.

The endless list of subtle features has made this custom Lincoln a constant show winner. The body was chopped, shaved nosed, decked and dechromed, and equipped with remote door and trunk access. The rocker panels were flared, rear wheel wells lowered, taillights modified with chrome billets, and the gas filler was moved to the trunk. Greg Westbury designed the bar grille with a floating chrome bar across Lucas style headlamps. Gene Winfield blended shades of House of Kolor Kandy Pearl Copper, Cinnamon, and Kandy Root Beer to White Pearl, assisted by Frank DeRosa Jr. and Carl Slawinski.

It’s rare to find such a coveted custom with so many famous names having a hand in the build. This Lincoln Continental Coupe is currently located in Daytona Beach, Florida and is listed for sale on Hemmings classifieds.

The Toyota Celica was a fun, sporty car that grabbed the attention of young buyers in the mid- ‘70s. Today it is still a desirable machine, perhaps even more so, especially to those who feel that spark of nostalgia in its presence.

Dressing a basic sedan with a sporty coupe shell is a common move made by manufacturers to increase sales at a low cost. Take Ford’s success with the mid- ‘60s Mustang, for example. The tactic was so successful that other brands followed suit and made mediocre daily drivers into stylish sport coupes, like the Toyota Celica, first introduced in 1971 and based off the brand’s Corona passenger car.

The base model Toyota Celica ST coupe made economy cars look cool. It became a sensation for the fast-growing Japanese brand. It may not have the insane horsepower of today’s supercars, but it certainly makes a powerful time machine. Known for reliability, the Celica’s mechanicals are simple and durable, but the bodies tend to be rust prone. Finding a rust free, unmodified example today is like searching for a needle in a haystack.

This 1976 Toyota Celica ST Coupe is the shiniest needle in all the haystacks we scoured in the market. Powered by its original inline-four and a five-speed manual transmission from a Celica GT, the odometer shows just over 78,000 miles. The seller states that the car is an unrestored survivor with minimal modifications, and yes, they also confirmed that the car is completely rust free. Photos show the paint, body and interior appearing in exceptional condition, and it has a clean engine bay and undercarriage to boot. Check out the auction for more details, including videos of it running and driving.
