K8096 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I believe there are at least 2 different shades of color on these as well. I personally like the lighter shade better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I think standard on the 180 is the light "blond" color, and the darker brown color was an option.I have the darker color on my car, but I'm not partial either way. I think they both look good. My car is loaded with options, including factory air, overdrive, upholstery, mouton carpeting, radio, deluxe heater.I have some photos on my computer, but they seem to be way to large in order to attach.

imported_v12lincoln Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 Thanks for the information. The color on this one is the blond. this 180 came with all the options except the AC and spotlight. it was the 40 worlds fair show car in san francisco, still an excellant driver as my Grandfather drove it from sacramento to arizona and back just a few years ago just to visit friends.Thanks for your help.

West Peterson Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 What body style is yours? Steve Snyder had one exactly like mine that he sold recently, and it had the "blond" plastic.I'm still curious about postwar V12 Lincolns. Did they go to hydraulic windows? or were you referring to later-model Lincolns in your previous post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_v12lincoln Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 I dont remember the body # but its the longest wheel base made that year 5 passenger touring. has the trunk rack and trunk with fitted luggage.The Lincoln I have is a 48 convertible coupe not considered a true classic but 3 times rarer than any continential. they used hydralics for the windows until 55 I belive, 56 being the first year for electric. its a sissor action with a spring to return the window to the down position. when properly maintained it works like a charm.
