Lincoln Continental: right.
1965: wrong.
Coupe: right. But it would be too easy if it was just that, a 196... Lincoln Continental Coupe. Look closer.

Just in-between: 1966 is the right year. But look at this one: don't you see the difference? What I'm after is the exact name and the coachbuilder of this Lincoln.

Lehmann-Peterson is all I can find for the period between '66 and '69. Also possible that I'm looking in the wrong way.

Lehmann-Peterson it is. Knowing that you should find what the car was called.

Except for the lack of some trim pieces, this looks like a Lincoln Continental Coronation Coupe, circa 1966.

It IS the 1966 Lincoln Continental Coronation Coupe by Lehmann-Peterson (and I don't think there's anything removed that wasn't intended by the coachbuilder).

In 1967, another iteration of this car was shown, the Lincoln Continental Coronation Coupe II :
