MotoeXotica is excited to offer yet another fine classic Lincoln automobile in this 1956 Lincoln Premiere Hardtop Coupe. This coupe was fully restored by the previous owner, an engineer who held a number of patents and collected certain, significant cars, focusing on Lincolns.
Under the hood is the 368 CID Lincoln Y-block V-8 engine, making around 285 horsepower and mated to a three-speed Turbo-Drive automatic transmission. This Lincoln also has a new fuel tank with a complete fuel system – lines, filters and booster pump – through to the carburetor.
The car has been driven approximately 500 miles since its restoration in (date). Outside, it is painted a period correct Starmist White with Amethyst, which is echoed once you open a door to the interior. Driver assist features include power steering and power four-wheel drum brakes. The front suspension was independent with a stabilizer bar. Car rides on original equipment steel wheels with hubcaps set inside Coker Classics wide whitewall tires.
Inside, you’ll find factory air-conditioning, four-way power seats and power windows. Air-conditioning back then was an exotic and rare option and in this car, the cooled air went to the roof through a pair of clear, plastic tubes visible through the back window on each side, connecting upward from the rear package tray. This set-up, much like that on an airplane, takes advantage of physics – cold air falls. Only 10 percent of Premieres came with this factory option. In this car, the air-conditioning is functional but it doesn’t blow cold, the system may need charging. Of the dashboard gauges, the fuel gauge is inoperative and the windshield wipers do not work but the car has Dynamat heat-proofing and sound deadening applied to the floorpan, color-coded seat belts and comes with the original radio and a power antenna.
Besides restoring this Lincoln, the car’s previous owner always believed the 1956 Premiere was one of the most elegant cars of the 1950s; he managed to find a collection of three 1956 Premiere Hardtops, all of them equipped with factory air-conditioning. He selected the best of the trio as the basis for this complete restoration.
The Lincoln Premiere, despite the French word for “first” in its name, ranked below the Continental Mark II and above the Capri in the company’s model hierarchy. The Premiere’s appearance borrowed from the radically different concept cars, theMercury XM-800and theLincoln Futura, and the Premiere was known for its stylish exterior, high-grade interior and some unique features.
Some examples of this car’s 1956 competition included the Cadillac Eldorado Seville, the BMW 503 coupe and the Chrysler New Yorker St. Regis two-door hardtop.
Current mileage on the odometer shows 33,080 miles. It is sold as is and on a clear and mileage exempt title. GET OUT AND DRIVE!

om Lincoln

Lincoln, ofta betraktat som mer än bara en lyxigare variant av Ford, har skapat sin egen nisch i bilvärlden med en rik historia och en uppsättning distinkta modeller. Låt oss ta en promenad ner längs minnesgatan i Lincolns historia.

Tidiga början:

Grundat år 1917 av Henry Leland, mannen bakom Cadillac-märket, började Lincoln ursprungligen som ett lyxbilföretag. Märket fick snabbt rykte om sig för sitt högkvalitativa hantverk och uppmärksamhet för detaljer.

Ford-eran:

År 1922 förvärvades Lincoln av Ford Motor Company, och det markerade början på ett långt samarbete. Ford ville positionera Lincoln som sin lyxdivision och konkurrera med andra prestigefyllda varumärken på marknaden.

Klassiska modeller:

Genom åren har Lincoln introducerat flera ikoniska modeller som har lämnat ett varaktigt intryck på bilvärlden:

Lincoln Continental: Lanserad på 1940-talet blev Continental omedelbart en klassiker. Dess eleganta design och ikoniska självmördardörrar gjorde den till en symbol för lyx och sofistikering.
Lincoln Town Car: Introducerad på 1980-talet blev Town Car synonymt med chaufförsdriven lyx. Dess rymliga interiör och behagliga åktur gjorde den till en favorit bland företagsledare och dignitärer.
Lincoln Navigator: Sent på 90-talet såg vi en ökande popularitet för SUV:er, och Lincoln svarade snabbt med Navigator. En fullstor lyx-SUV kombinerade Navigator praktiskt användande med lyx och blev ett populärt val bland förmögna familjer.
