Description

1941 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL COUPE (MARK I). Built on April 23rd and shipped to Chicago on April 25th. 1941. Body Number 684. My Uncle purchased the Car in 1950 from the Original Owner named Nelson (that's all I know about Him). Sometime in the 1950's my Uncle removed the V12 Engine & 3 Speed Transmission (like a lot of owners did at that time) and Installed a 1953 Oldsmobile Rocket 303 CID V8 Engine with a Hydramatic Transmission. He drove it for years up until the early 1970's when I acquired the Car from Him. I drove it that way until the early 1990's when I replaced the Drive Train with a 1969 Lincoln Continental 460 CID 365 HP V8 Engine and a C6 Cruise-O-Matic Transmission. I used the Rear End out of a 1960 Thunderbird that had had the Optional Lincoln 430 Engine & Transmission. I also Installed Front Disk Brakes (had to go with modern 15" Rims to make that work) with a Power Brake Booster and Power Steering. I also converted the Car over to a 12 Volt System. Otherwise I have tried to keep the Car as Original Looking as possible. Half of the Interior is still original: the Header the Sun Visors part of the Door Panels part of the Front Seats. Most of the Trunk Lining is original too! I had the Original Radio repaired some years ago and it works! The Original Clock works too but I currently have a 12 Volt Clock out of a 1966 MUSTANG installed. Car was in storage for the last 10 Years. Recently took it out of storage and drove it around before putting it back into storage at another location. Drove great but needs some minor things looked at after being in storage for awhile. Wife and I planning to do some traveling. Will let Fate decide if Car goes to a new Home or stays Home with me. Rare Car only 300+ Coupes still known to exist out of 850 Built for 1941.
