The Lincoln Continental made its debut in 1940 and stemmed from Edsel Ford’s desire to build a high-class, stylish luxury model to compete with the finest marques of Europe. Designed by E.T. “Bob” Gregorie, the Continental shared many characteristics of the Lincoln-Zephyr including the legendary flathead V12 engine. Production temporarily halted in 1942 when the U.S. entered World War II and resumed in 1946 with some styling updates. The death of Edsel Ford in 1943 caused a restructuring of Ford’s corporate management who deemed the design as too pre-war which resulted in the Continental ceasing production in 1948. The Continental name would not reappear until 1955 with the Continental Mark II, although the first-generation Continentals remain highly prized among collector car circles. The first-generation Continental is one of the few post-war models to be recognized by the Classic Car Club of America as a “full classic” and, to date, remain the last American V12-powered production automobile. Only 738 Continental Convertibles were assembled for 1947, making examples highly sought-after by collectors today.
