Vehicle Description
1948 Lincoln Sedan
Sold on a Bill of Sale Only. It does not have a title.
Originally the personal vehicle of Ford Motor Company President
Edsel Ford, the Lincoln Continental was born into greatness. The
first generation model officially hit the streets in 1939 and was
available as a coupe or convertible. Following the attack on Pearl
Harbor and the United States' entry into World War II, the
Continental halted production from 1942 to 1946. 1948 saw the end
of the first generation of the luxury car, but it didn't go out
without leaving its mark. The 1948 Lincoln Continental was the last
car in the United States to boast a V12 engine.
For consignment a barn find version of the V12 now called the
Sedan. Clean lines and beautiful design that changed how we look at
cars forever, especially in this era.
Exterior
Black paint has long since faded to a gray patina, and showing rust
in various areas. Chrome is there on the grille, but the bumpers
have succumbed to rust invasion and have lost most of their
plating. The drivers front fender has lost a light, bezel and turn
signal. Grille is pitted and shows signs of rust. Panels and gaps
are not too bad, save for the passengers fender which has a large
dent. Glass is all there, and trim still exists throughout the cars
exterior. Interestingly enough the car has flared doors, which was
a trait a lot of Cadillacs of this era had that were from custom
coach builders.
Interior
Unfortunately needs a total redux, but the good news is you can do
whatever you want! Be creative!
Drivetrain
Currently this car does not have an engine (which would have been a
V12). The transmission is retained and is hanging in its original
home in the car.
Lots of TLC, and a creative restorer, and you will have a very fine
V-12 car that influenced car design for years to come, all here at
