This 1947 Lincoln Continental is a distinguished example of postwar
American luxury, presented in a sleek black exterior over a
matching black interior. Power comes from its original 292 cubic
inch V12 engine paired with a manual transmission, offering a
smooth and commanding driving experience. The previous owner, an
experienced engine builder, ensured the drivetrain was in top shape
by installing new rings, gaskets, rod bearings, along with new
brakes and hardware, and a fresh battery. The tan convertible top
is in excellent condition, complementing the car's elegant lines.
Well-preserved and mechanically sorted, this Continental stands as
a refined classic that is both road-ready and visually
striking.
The Lincoln Continental originated in 1940 as a personal luxury car
designed for Edsel Ford, quickly becoming a symbol of style and
exclusivity. The 1947 model was part of the first postwar
Continental lineup, maintaining the graceful prewar design with
subtle refinements. Renowned for its long hood, flowing fenders,
and distinctive spare-tire hump at the rear, the Continental was
one of the few American cars of the era to feature a V12 engine,
underscoring its luxury pedigree. Produced in limited numbers,
these cars were meticulously crafted and catered to an elite
clientele. Today, the 1947 Lincoln Continental is celebrated as a
true classic of American automotive design, representing the height
of elegance and craftsmanship in the immediate postwar period.
