Re: 1940 lincoln continental convertible

That is my favorite car of all time. I wish I could afford one! You are a lucky man. IMO, DON'T tear it down for a full resto...you'll never drive and enjoy it afterward, plus it would cost a fortune! Good luck with whatever you decide...let me know if you want to sell it!

I WOULD NOT redo that interior. Seek expert advice on how to soften aged leather. It appears too good to replace, and is invaluable. If you use it as is, it will fall apart, so treat it and get it to soften. Original cars are getting scarce.

Re: 1940 lincoln continental convertible

I just saw the other interior photos you uploaded, and it almost looks like a totally different interior. I'm now confused, but that usually doesn't take much. In any event, I would still seek to soften the leather before putting any cover over it, as it will continue to deteriorate underneath. The door and side panels look way too good to redo, and I would just clean those.
