1947 Lincoln Continental Convertible at Ellingson Motorcars in Rogers, MN

This 1947 Lincoln Continental Convertible is a wonderful CCCA Full Classic with a surprising amount of power and drivability, and has benefitted from on older restoration. The Lincoln Continental's origin started back in 1939 when the President of Lincoln at the time, Edsel Ford, was driving around in a custom-built 1939 Lincoln Convertible Coupe modeled after the modern, aerodynamic designs seen in some of the high-end European marques at the time. Edsel's custom-bodied Lincoln would end up serving as the inspiration for the replacement for the boxy, antiquated Model K, a car that would be known as the 1940 Lincoln-Zephyr Continental. In total, a mere 738 Lincoln Continental Convertibles were produced in 1947 which makes this particular example quite a rare piece of automotive history. Additionally, the Classic Car Club of America (CCCA) has deemed the 1947 Continental as a "Full Classic" due to its limited production, high original price, and overall beauty and distinction. Under the hood on this Lincoln is a 305 L-Head V12 engine fed by a single 2 barrel carburetor. The 305 V-12 is backed by a 3 speed manual transmission that is shifted using a column-mounted "3-on-the-tree" shifter and exhaust exits via a single exhaust port. Riding on a set of wide whitewall bias-ply tires mounted on steel wheels that are accented with a set of full wheelcovers and beauty rings, this '47 Lincoln has a gorgeous look whether you're cruising down the road or parked at the local car show. A rear-mounted continental kit houses a spare tire on this namesake automobile. The rear wheels are tucked behind a pair of fender skirts, further elevating this already gorgeous looking CCCA Full Classic. The black cloth power convertible top is in wonderful condition and it goes up and down with the simple flick of a switch. The exterior of this '47 Continental has been refinished in a beautiful Pace Car Yellow paint that completes the exterior appearance of the car. The interior of this 1947 Lincoln Continental Convertible exudes luxury! The front and rear bench seats have been reupholstered in beautiful Oxblood Red leather. The matching carpeting, upholstered door panels, painted dash, and steering wheel are in fantastic condition as well and appear to retain a nice stock appearance. The instrument cluster is equipped with a 110 MPH speedometer, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge, amp gauge, and fuel gauge. The dash is finished off with an AM radio with and integrated speaker in the center, along with a clock and locking glovebox positioned in front of the passenger. ** This classic Lincoln has been SOLD. 0:00 - Video Start 7:00 - Cold Start 7:36 - Virtual Walkaround
