With production limited to just 738 units in 1947, this Lincoln
Continental Convertible exists as one of the rarest post-war luxury
cars ever made. This Continental features Burgundy Metallic paint
that accentuates its long, flowing body lines and elegant
proportions. The cashmere canvas convertible top provides excellent
contrast against the rich burgundy, while the polished chrome trim
and bumpers highlight the Continental's luxury status. Its 15"
wheels fitted with 215/75R15 wide whitewall tires complete the
period-correct appearance, enhancing the authentic stance that made
the Continental the ultimate expression of American automotive
luxury in the 1940s.
Inside the cabin, cashmere leather envelops the split-bench
seating, creating an atmosphere of pure luxury and comfort. The
dashboard displays immaculate restoration with gauges and controls
that maintain their original positions and functions. Every aspect
of the interior shows like new - from the perfectly fitted
upholstery to the trunk space that presents without flaw. The
column shifter offers easy access to the transmission while
maintaining the clean, uncluttered cabin design that made these
Continentals famous for their elegant simplicity.
A Cadillac 331 V8 engine powers this Lincoln, mated to a 3-speed
manual transmission that puts control directly into the driver's
hands. Modern upgrades include electric cooling fans and updated
wiring for improved reliability without compromising the vehicle's
classic character. The factory rear end works in harmony with the
leaf spring front suspension and transverse leaf spring rear
suspension to deliver the smooth, comfortable ride these luxury
vehicles are known for. Dual-to-single exhaust provides just enough
rumble to remind you of the American V8 muscle beneath.
