High Bid: $ 41,000

This is a beautiful, restored 1948 Lincoln Continental V-12 Cabriolet in excellent condition inside out. This beauty has been very well pampered and it shows! The Car just was released from a very high quality private collection. It is one of only 452 Cabriolets built in 1948. This car originated out of the Phil Maloof (Palms Hotel Family) collection several years, then was sold to Dale Beyer who is a very well known early Lincoln expert. He rebuilt the entire drive train. The original V-12 engine alone cost over $25K to rebuild. The car then spent the next couple years in a another large private collection where I received the car. It is all correct from front to back and even retains it's original leather seats in excellent condition. This is truly one of the finest running and driving V-12 Lincolns on the road today. These were largely hand built customs with body panels cut and fitted by craftsmen in the Lincoln factory. This car is recognized by the CCCA as a Full Classic and is the last year for the full classic Continentals!!
