1953 Lincoln Capri Convertible Additional Info:

If you are seeking a classic luxury convertible that is equally at home at a car show or on the road, this may be just the one for you. This 1953 Lincoln Capri convertible has a smooth running 317ci V8 with a rebuilt 4 barrel carburetor, automatic transmission, new fuel pump, as well as rebuilt power steering, power brakes and windshield washer. It is a striking deep blue color with a matching blue and white original leather interior, with a dark blue Hartz cloth top. All of the glass and chrome on the car are in excellent condition.


The clock, power seat, power antenna and cigar lighters all work as built. The original headlights are included, but I have replaced them on the car with new halogen headlights. All the weather stripping has recently been professionally replaced. I mounted five new Coker Radial Tires on the car when I purchased it in 2016.


Included with the car are a custom car cover, custom sea grass floor mats, original parts, service and body manuals, as well as list of restoration sources. I should note that the AM radio has been working well, but stopped doing so recently. I have been advised that it is likely a tube, and I am seeking a replacement.


I have found that this Capri draws a lot of attention wherever we take it, and as good as it looks, it performs equally as well. It rides and drives like the luxury car that it is. This is a professionally maintained restoration that is ready for to take you where you want to go. These photographs cannot do it justice. I am confident that you will enjoy it and take as much pride in it as we do.
