This is one crazy custom, it’s a 1977 Lincoln Town Car Flatbed. What?! Someone must have gotten a set of cutting torches and a welder for their birthday. This funky flatbed is on Craigslist in Morris, Oklahoma with an asking price of $2,250. That’s a heck of a deal, where else can you get a luxury flatbed for $2,250?! And we all know how handy a luxury flatbed would be…

I see a problem right away, the headlights appear to “need fixed”, as folks who cut apart Lincolns and turn them into flatbeds would say. This is really a cool custom, in my opinion. I don’t see any way of tying down a load on the back, other than the side rails, but there must be some way to do that otherwise what’s the point of having a hauling bed that can’t haul anything on without having it fall off?

I think that it would be a blast to own something like this for hauling motorcycles around. Or, not just hauling them “around”, in general, but to motorcycle shows and things like that. Or, even a Subaru 360 or another microcar. Ok, that may be pushing it a bit, but it would probably haul that if they beefed up the rear springs at all. I’m guessing not, though. My dad did a similar thing to our 1956 Pontiac back in the late-60s but he didn’t put a flatbed on it. I wish he would have, it would have made it an actual usable vehicle rather than just an oddball. Some of the craftsmanship here is interesting, whether the next owner finishes things off or not is up to them.

This has to be the most posh flatbed in the history of the world. The front interior, which is the only interior, could use a deep cleaning and those seats seriously need some help and some leather conditioner. The headliner needs a good dose of elbow grease, and maybe some semi-strong chemicals to clean that mildew off of it.

Yes, this is the famous 460 V8, but by the late-70s it was just pumping out a bit over 200 hp. This would have been a 5,200-pound car before the back end was cut off and maybe it’s about the same weight now depending on what the flatbed is made out of. What are your thoughts on this custom Lincoln flatbed? I like it!
