1939 Lincoln Brunn Victoria Convertible

1939 Lincoln Brunn Victoria Additional Info:

This important car was built for the 1939 NY or LA auto shows. Only 2 were made, both show cars. Brunn bodied cars are extremely rare and are hard to find. Collectors that have them generally won’t part with them. Overall, everything came together in the car: exciting styling, luxurious appointments, performance and handling. Henry Ford used Lincoln as a loss leader to prove he could build cars as well or better than any other car manufacturer. It is said that Ford lost money on every one that left the factory. The luxurious interiors of these cars demonstrate the “no expense spared” approach to over-the-top quality of this hand-built custom bodied car. The car was formerly owned by Don Sears and Don Connolly.

The car has had the engine completely rebuilt and all mechanical work by the late Ernie Foster with new bearings, valves, etc. We did a show quality paint job and hand pin-stripping15 years ago. We re-chromed the bumpers and guards, headlight rims and hubcaps and installed new exact reproduction cloisonne hubcap medallions. New hood ornament. Correct wiper arms. Tires were new when we purchased the car. The interior is a high-quality vinyl in very good condition. We lowered the top a couple of years ago. The photos of the top are from the Significant car ad. It appears to be the original top that will make an excellent pattern. Windshield glass has some cloudy spots. It is simple flat glass.
