Location:
Tallahassee, FL
Description:
1948 Lincoln Continental Convertible 12 cylinder with 3 spd manual transmission and equipped with over-drive. This model car is recognized as a â??Full Classicâ? by the Classic Car Club of America, one of the last built cars to be so recognized. It is one of 452 built in 1948, the last year of this car and the last of the American V-12s. Exterior color is Pace Car Yellow and interior color is Oxblood. The car is an extremely solid and complete example that runs and drives well, but has an older restoration that will need attention if you wish to have a concourse show car. It is a decent and presentable car as is, but does have a few cosmetic and mechanical flaws. The car sits on a much older frame up restoration and seems to have never had any rot or corrosion. It is very straight and has had a lot of recent service. He purchased the Lincoln from a long-term owner in Texas six years ago. The previous owner indicated that in its prime the car was a 100 point car. The Lincoln Registry has a listing of what awards it has won back in the day. Recent items done by my stepfather include four new Lester tires, new convertible top, oil pump rebuild, carburetor tune and rebuild, all tune up parts, wheel cylinders and complete tuning. The body is in excellent condition, but the paint is the cars biggest flaw. The lacquer has various cracking throughout. There are also some nicks and chips on the car. The driver door has some sagging issues and has rubbed the lower sill. The chrome and stainless are in fantastic condition and have recently won Best Chrome trophies at local car shows. The interior is presentable and complete but is showing slight wear and the carpets could use a good cleaning or replacement. The convertible top hydraulic system will need attention and currently requires two people to raise and lower. As of last week the passenger side window is struggling to rise out of the door. Since the pictures, both side skirts have been repainted as one was chipped real bad and the other was showing a lighter color. They now look excellent and match quite well. Mileage shows 03656 which we believe is the miles completed since restoration years ago. The radio seems to work, but the clock does not. The undercarriage is in rather clean condition as seen in the pictures but is not concourse worthy. Update: the passenger side window mechanism was repaired and now functions properly, however- the radio is not in working condition.
