Vehicle Details

Free shipping in the continental United States. I will supply the shipper. $2000 credit toward international shipping buyers pay balance. A very rare car, only 350 made, all were factory hand built because dies were not developed till 1941. Only 300 exist today. This is car #63, body # 06H56-63.

In the past these cars have sold for more than six figures and up. 1940 is the 1st year for the Continental. This car is a 1940 Lincoln continental, zephyr cabriolet convertible. Henry Ford’s son Edsel had the first one built for his personal car. People were so impressed with the car that Edsel put 350 into production. This particular car has previously been in the Horseless carriage museum in Murdo SD when it existed.

Many of these cars were given as gifts to actors, politicians and other important people. The car was previously titled in Nebraska and the last owner told me a rumor that at one time the 40’s actor Burt Lancaster owned it. It is just a rumor and I have no documentation. This particular car has its original good running V-12 engine which was professionally rebuilt some time ago, coupled to a 3-speed standard transmission. The drivetrain is solid. It starts right up, drives and brakes well. It is an older restoration that needs paint. The radio that is in it is from a 1941 and is missing the faceplate. There are several other small items missing as well and some easy to fix electrical items that need attention to make it fully functional. The wide white wall 8.20-15 tires are newer and in good condition. There is a recently replaced battery. The car and exterior body are very solid, with no major dents and no rust. The original undercoating was very thick and did a good job of preventing rust all these years. There is one small area on the lower front body pan that someone did a repair that can be easily repaired. (pictured). The interior is mostly complete, needing carpet and a few other items. The convertible top is fully intact but has shrunken in some places. It will need wiper arms. The trunk interior is not rusted, it just has the glue residue from the trunk carpet making it look brown. I have located some parts that are needed and will pass the information on to the buyer. Hagerty valuation tool lists a number 3 condition value for this model of car @ $47,000 and a number 4 @ $21,500. I feel this car is somewhere in between and priced accordingly. I have the clean Nebraska title ready to pass onto the new owner. Can ship anywhere worldwide.
