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.
