Lincoln Models
Founded by Henry Leland and acquired by Ford in 1922, Lincoln has served as Ford's top luxury division for a century. The brand built its reputation on engineering excellence and elegant design, directly competing with Cadillac. Early highlights include the powerful V12-powered K-series cars of the 1930s and the original Continental, which set a new standard for personal luxury in 1939.
The collector market for Lincoln is diverse. At the top are the coachbuilt pre-war models and the exclusive, hand-built 1956-57 Continental Mark II. The 1961-1969 Continentals, famous for their center-opening rear doors, are also design icons with a strong following. These models represent the pinnacle of American mid-century style and luxury, making them highly desirable.
Today's market reflects this wide history. While pristine early Continentals and Mark IIs can command six-figure prices, a large portion of the market consists of more affordable cars from the 1970s, 80s, and 90s. Models like the Town Car and later Mark series offer a comfortable and stylish entry into classic car ownership, with an average transaction price around $24,000.
Buying Tips
- Rust is the primary concern, especially on 1960s unibody Continentals. Check floor pans, rocker panels, and around the front and rear glass.
- Test all power accessories. The complex electrical and vacuum systems for windows, seats, and convertible tops are expensive to repair.
- V12 engines in pre-war and early Continental models require specialist knowledge for maintenance and rebuilding. Ensure the engine is healthy.
- Parts for pre-war and limited-production models like the Mark II are scarce and costly. Later models like the Town Car have much better parts availability.
