Vehicle Description
1940 Lincoln-Zephyr Continental V12 Convertible This 1940
Lincoln-Zephyr Continental V12 Convertible is a California car just
out of an estate collection. Attractive metallic blue with red
interior and the subject of a much older restoration. It's been off
the road for several years and is not currently running. A
complete, solid, and honest car that's been patiently awaiting
simple cosmetic and mechanical recommissioning. The Lincoln Zephyr
was a series of cars introduced in 1936. The Zephyr was originally
introduced as the Lincoln-Zephyr, and was Lincoln's second model
line during the years before WW2. The Zephyr was a range of luxury
vehicles that were sold as sedans, coupes, and convertibles. The
Lincoln Zephyr was fitted with a 4.4L V12 engine and was in
production until 1942. Designed by Chief Stylist Eugene "Bob"
Gregorie Jr. to have what he termed Continental styling. This
European-influenced design ethos involved the use of waterfall-like
grilles, long hoods, and short rear decks. To this day, the
streamlined styling of the Zephyr is viewed by many as one of the
most beautiful mass-produced American automobiles of all time. One
of approximately 350 Lincoln-Zephyr Continental Cabriolets produced
for 1940 Designed by E.T. Bob Gregorie, Inspired by Edsel Ford
