With a history that dates back to 1939, the Continental was a vehicle built by Lincoln, a division of the Ford Motor Company. In fact, the inspiration behind the Continental came when Edsel Ford, president of the time, requested a specially built one-off vehicle for his vacation. All in all, the Continental saw ten generations, this car being of the very latest one. In 2019, Lincoln released a special, 80th Anniversary coach door edition, and the car featured here is 1 of just 80 of its kind in existence and comes with a special black label trim. This one-of-a-kind Continental is for sale in Colorado with under 100 miles on it.
This special edition Continental is assembled as a standard before it's shipped off to Cabot Coach Builders where it receives a 6-inch wheelbase extension in order to accommodate its rear-hinged passenger doors. Being of the 'black label' trim, the car receives a full gloss black exterior paint which helps its massive chrome grille and other subtle exterior chrome bits to stand out. The interior is where we start to see features that are exclusive to the Continental. The mostly black color scheme is coupled with tan leather and fine wood accents, giving it a two-toned appearance. Much like the outside of the car, you are able to observe subtle chrome trim framing most interior parts to give it a little bit of oomph, but the most significant thing about the cabin of this 2019 Lincoln Continental Black Label 80th Anniversary edition is the rear passenger seating that has been designed with two individual seats and a center console coming down the middle. You will also find silver door sills with "80th Anniversary Limited Edition" engraved on them. This one bears the number 31/80.
Under the hood of this 2019 Lincoln Continential 80th anniversary edition is a punchy 3.0L Ecoboost, twin-turbocharged V6 engine that has been specifically tuned to produce 400hp to all four wheels using its 6F55 6-speed automatic transmission and sending the car from 0-60mph in around 5.5 seconds before topping out at 155mph, for stately and swift but not uncomfortable or neck-snapping performance.

The Lincoln Continental made its name in 1939 as a full-size luxury car when it was introduced to the world. The car at that time had European ‘Continental’ styling cues which set it apart from array of American competitors at that time. Lincoln a division of Ford Motor Company, is still in the business of manufacturing luxury cars and SUVs as well. The Lincoln Continental stands out as the pinnacle, with its priority of features, styling and comfort over performance and handling. With regards to its styling, the Lincoln Continental has been awarded a Bronze Medal by the Industrial Design Institute (IDI) in 1961, a rare feat for a vehicle. Our subject vehicle, a 1965 third generation Lincoln Continental Convertible is a four-door convertible which is extremely rare in the automotive world. It comes from New York, is in very good condition and is reported to be a numbers-matching car as the icing on the cake.
Lincoln’s widely successful Continental nameplate continued until 2020 as a full-size luxury car or midsize luxury car, depending on the era. Ten generations were made, with the first generation entering the market in 1940. If you want a really iconic Continental, the fourth generation is the way to go because this series ran between 1961 and 1969. This was probably the best time to experience quintessential American Luxury Land Yacht motoring, and we’ve got a 1966 Lincoln Continental Convertible to help you relive those glorious years of excess. This 80,000-mile machine has seen some refurbishment, too, helping keep it in great order.
The late 40s saw a resurgence in the American luxury car market that had almost died completely thanks to more than a decade of economic depression and World War. The post-war boom brought a wave of Cadillacs, Packards, and Lincolns re-entering the market. For the first few years after the war, most cars (especially the more expensive ones like the Lincoln Continentals) were largely similar to the pre-war models. This was due to civilian automobile production being paused after Pearl Harbor (and America’s subsequent direct involvement in WWII). In this case, the first-generation Continental had only been in production for a couple of years before being put on hold. They were offered only in 2-door form, as either a coupe or a convertible. Several changes were made when production was resumed in 1946, the most prominent being the “Zephyr” name being removed from Lincoln-Zephyr. This production run would last only a few years as well, ending in 1948. The 1949 Continental would be a fancier Mercury and not quite the expensive and exclusive personal-luxury vehicle that its predecessor was.
