This 1941 Lincoln Continental two-door coupe exemplifies a top-tier restoration under a Tuxedo Black exterior that is capped off with whitewall tires, a rear-mounted spare, wheel skirts, and push-button door releases. Power is generated by an L-Head 292ci V12 paired with a 3-speed manual transmission, and interior niceties include gold-finished dash trim, full gauges, and a fully carped trunk. Finished in Tuxedo Black over a reupholstered red leather interior, this Continental is now offered with a clear Arkansas title.
The Continental model launched in 1940 as a luxury car on the Lincoln Zephyr platform, and in 1941 received updates including fender-mounted marker lights and push-button door releases. This example is painted Tuxedo Black which was reportedly a respray over its original red. Exterior design is augmented by rear wheel skirts and a trunk-mounted continental kit, and brightwork consists of front and rear bumpers, grille, sideview mirrors, and more. There are scripted Lincoln Continental badges on the front fenders, and this car wears a placard with body number 16H-57-658.
Factory 15” steel wheels have beauty rings and Lincoln-branded hubcaps, having been wrapped in wide whitewall tires. The suspension is comprised of leaf springs and drum brakes at all four corners.
The interior is fitted with reupholstered fold-forward red leather seats with matching lap belts, door panels, and carpeting, while the dash has been painted with a mahogany look. Gold accents are featured throughout the interior brightwork and there is a prominent Lincoln badge at the center dash. The trunk is carpeted on all sides in tan.
Instrumentation is portrayed by a 110-mph speedometer, an analog clock, and gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, voltage, and oil pressure. The five-digit mechanical odometer reads 8k miles, although true mileage on the chassis is unknown.
The L-Head 4.8-liter 292ci V12 features a single carburetor, and power is directed to the rear wheels via a column-shifted 3-speed manual transmission.
