38ShortopConv. 14 Posted October 23, 2018 (edited) Stefani, WOW, what a mission, you deserve a medal. I wonder how many others have been removed or how many people know the frame comes out? Whats the frame made of? Timber and metal sheeting? I thought the whole frame would have been metal and welded in. I wonder if my 38 Lincoln Zephyr convertible is like that or if its only peculiar to the continental. I will have a close look at my Zephyr . An unusual build !?

JAK 73 Posted October 24, 2018 Most of the K open cars were built like this and in the case of mine it is an aluminum casting, quite impressive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
19tom40 62 Posted October 24, 2018 I was surprised to hear that it was removable also. I think that having a seam there would be a source of leaks that could lead to rust of the cowl. Tom Overfield, how was it sealed to prevent rust problems? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom_Overfield 38 Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) I just bought black silicon, masked off the seam and using the smallest point possible just followed the seam while squeezing the tube with a calking gun. Wet my finger, spreaded out evenly. Let it get a skin coat on.silicon, then removed the tape. Not one leak at all and looks great on my blue Continental.
