For Sale: 1947 Lincoln Continental in Mankato, Minnesota

Vehicle Description

1947 Lincoln Continental. A two door Lincoln in burgundy paint and chrome detailing. Beneath the hood lies a smooth-running V12 engine of 292 cubic inches paired with a three-speed manual transmission with overdrive. The chrome, including the headlight surrounds, bumperettes, hood ornament, and grill, appears well maintained. The paint retains a shiny luster with only minor blemishes. The rear fender skirts and rock guards are intact. The tires are wide whitewall bias-ply with Lincoln hubcaps and beauty rings, the tires are aging. The hydraulic power windows on the front doors do go upward and downward yet are slightly touchy and prone to leaks. Turn signals and wipers are inop. The battery is older and benefits from trickle charging, and the vehicle runs on the original style 6-volt electrical system. Inside, the interior is exceptional, reminiscent of LeBaron Bonney styles with a fabric and leather finish suggesting a restoration or meticulous maintenance. Door panels and push-button releases are in good shape, and the dashboard incorporates highly polished chrome and bright work. The AM radio is functional after warm up. The gauges show normal readings for speed, fuel, oil pressure, and engine temperature within an ideal range. The three-on-the-tree manual transmission and braking performance is as expected. While the suspension and ride quality remain good, the aged tires can cause a shake. To start, turn key left, pull out on key mount, then push start button. Easy to start, smooth running, comfortable and an elegant eye catching car on the road.
