Unfortunately the car in the Youtube-video is not the one from the craigslist. Any Information about the Youtube car available?

Peter,

There's a second YouTube video with the car and owner in which the data plate is shown. It's 3194 and was built as 04-1N6B: Light blue with white and medium blue leather trim.

Nice car on YouTube but this one is not the one from craigslist either. It is not pink enough. By the way I doubt that there is any video of the craigslist-car. When this bunch of junk was driveable and filmable, videos were not yet invented.

Gentlemen,

My comments were related to the restored red car shown in the second YouTube video listed. I suspect the seller was providing information to show what a MKII looks like restored (3194) to original glory.
They were not meant to identify the car FS in the CL ad as chassis 3194.

[Peter Baumgardt]

Ahaa! I see.

[Don Henschel]

That red Mark is fantastic. I can see why he calls it a keeper.

Finished in Burgundy over matching upholstery with Grey accents, this 1956 Continental Mark II is a highly attractive example throughout and continues to benefit from a quality restoration. Comprehensive standard features and amenities include power-assisted brakes, steering, front seat, side and vent windows, plus full instrumentation including a tachometer and low-fuel warning indicator. Air conditioning, a rare option, is present but inoperative. Offered from 22 years of single ownership, this Continental Mark II was shown just once at the Geneva Concours dElegance. A recent test drive confirms it drives well and straight, without rattles or squeaks, and tracks and stops straight, providing a proper driving experience.
