Dave Cole has been tracking every 1940 Continental that he can find ever since I have known him, and that's over 45 years! He would be delighted to hear from you and can probably give you a lot of history of your car. Dave
WILL respond to you via "snail-mail".
If you haven't already joined the Lincoln Zephyr Owner's Club, may I recommend that you do so. There's an on-line applicaton at
www.lzoc.org.
You'll find your LCOC membership to be a lot less rewarding than the LZOC membership. The LCOC has embraced ALL Lincolns and there are a LOT more late model Lincolns out there than there are early ones!
Thanks for posting your photos. That's a
great looking car, even with the few "blemishes"!
