1941 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 VERY odd looking automobile. Too bad the data plate is conveniently missing from the firewall. I doubt that Lincoln would do this "factory" job as it totally destroys the flowing lines of the original. Just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jim Zephyr Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Interesting, but not factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 39 Pickup Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 This looks like it was originally a 4 door See the short door? The wheel base has been shortened, probably by using the straight 3 speed transmission and the drive shaft from an OD car which is shorter. The panel behind the top looks like the roof panel from a 4 door and the rear window opening is now used for the spare tire. An interesting conversion.

Guest Jim Zephyr Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 You can tell from the cobbled nature of the trim this is someone's hatchet job. I would have sold it mid 20s all day long- kind of interesting but not that special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mssr. Bwatoe Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) The beauty of Edsel's Lincoln Continental seems to be lost on this mess...The whole point of the car was grace, streamlinesflowing beauty...This looks like good old boys with a junk sedan and a cutting torch that got carried away...it is laughable...but since it's old ...its good?? I 'll take whatever those folks bidding 25000 dollars are drinkin!! Edited March 4, 2014 by Mssr. Bwatoe (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleach Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 It might make a good Shriner car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest themagicisback Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) I would have sold it for $26,100 any day! That was a surprising! Edited March 5, 2014 by themagicisback (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
