Rarest and most expensive of the 1956 Lincolns was the Premier Convertible, of which only 2,447 were made. It was offered in a broad palette of fascinating colors that could only have been worn by a 1950's automobile. The car, resplendent in Taos Turquoise, resided for decades in the San Francisco Bay area. After a cosmetic restoration in the late 1980's, it was featured on the cover of the January 1991 issue of Cars & Parts magazine, as well as in a future article within.
It is equipped with factory-correct dual spotlight/mirrors, fog
lamps, pinched-seam leather upholstery, a four-way power seat, a
Town & Country radio with power antenna, correct trunk lining, and
replacement "New Old Stock" Lincoln floor mats, as wells as all of
the expected power luxuries, this comfortable cruiser is ready to
add a little flair to a new owner's collection. Just as it
was in 1956, it is "unmistakably the finest in the fine car
field".
