Vehicle Description
Immediate post-war cars are always instantly distinctive, but you
already know this 1946 Lincoln Club Coupe stands out for far more
than just its history. With upgraded V8 power, upgraded suspension,
custom A/C interior, and a full presentation that will leave them
all green with envy, this is one outstanding custom cruiser.
We love cars from '46, because that was when passenger car
production really came back after WWII. So you're sure to get
admiration for this model year. But you may not even be able to
dive into this history with most people, because they'll be too
busy complementing this very custom creation. In fact, that green
paint that is consuming every inch not only commands attention, but
also it was completed by Mike Henry of TV's Counting Cars. But even
before the first drop went on this super-slick celebrity paintjob,
they made sure the body was given the full custom treatment.
Frenched headlights, expertly deleted trim, sport mirrors,
integrated third brake light, rear bumper delete, Frenched license
plate, and much more created one of the sleekest '40s cars you can
get your hands on. And while they gave this one a very modern look,
the bright shine of Lincoln's classic chrome grille mixed with
modern polished alloy wheels reminds you this classic American
still has room for proper brightwork. There are even modern halo
lights around the headlights to make sure ALL eyes are on you in
this very custom coupe.
Inside, the sea of green continues. The exterior minty hue is now
joined by slightly darker tones on the seats, door panels,
carpeting, and center console. The result is both distinctive and
quite uniform - exactly what you want on a custom build like this.
More than just look awesome, this was built for the best comfort.
That's why everyone has leather seats, and each are individual
buckets with their own armrests. The front ones even power adjust
into your ideal position. There are plenty of comfort features,
like power windows, power locks, cruise control, an alarm system,
an AM/FM/CD stereo, and a full R134a air conditioning system that
even includes vents for the rear. And as comfortable as this one
is, it's also meant to be a driver. That's why you have a
color-matched Momo steering wheel on a tilt column, and beyond that
is a full set of digital readouts dominating the dash.
Because this one was made to show off, with the flip of a switch,
the hood electronically tilts forward to reveal an award-worthy
engine bay. They did a fantastic job color-matching everything to
the exterior - from the smooth firewall, right down to the spark
plug wires. And anything that isn't green is nice and bright, like
the radiator pipe, pulleys, and that very cool air topper. More
than just look great, there's substance behind this style. It's a
351 cubic-inch Cleveland V8, which provides far more displacement
that this Lincoln had from the factory. And this V8 inhales deeply
with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales through a
set of Sanderson headers on its way to the center-exit dual
exhaust. Plus, the motor has all the right supporting components,
including an aluminum radiator w/large electric fan, dual-fan
condenser, and separate trans cooler. As you look at the
undercarriage photos, you'll see color matched components in a tidy
setup. While you're down there, don't forget to spot upgrades, like
the Mustang II-style independent front suspension and four-wheel
disc brakes. Plus, with power steering and a three-speed automatic
transmission, this is one custom build that is easy to enjoy on the
road.
The sale comes complete with a photo book documenting this unique
build. This is the custom Lincoln for someone who likes to keep
people talking long after the car has pulled away. Don't miss this
