This 1942 Lincoln Continental Coupe (H133822 - #116 of 200) runs and drives and has been in our family since 1985. After researching and collecting any original literature, information and parts this rare Lincoln has gone through a body off stock restoration that was completed in 2013. Some items still need some adjusting and completion - the vacuum window system needs adjusting, radio was restored several years ago but now not working, a few other items need to be finished or installed - i.e. engine and glove box decals,hood knob, under door rubber, heater hook up. Window button escutcheons still needed. All metal is solid, all chrome and stainless has been restored, new brakes tires and upholstery. A complete set of original tools and jack as well as an original glove box book come with the car.
On the Ford production card for this car it is listed as being built on December 4, 1941 and delivered on December 11, 1941 - during a very unique time in history.
Also available are many original 1942 parts and original literature. Title is clean and clear. The car is located just south of Carson City in Northern Nevada. Any question or details or additional photos needed give me a call - Gary 775 781-5225

Ford investing $5B in Lincoln
Ex-GM VP LaNeve takes over Lincoln ad agency
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Those of you that caught yesterday's op-ed about Lincoln will have heard already, but Mark LaNeve has taken the helm at Team Detroit. Once the North American vice president of sales, service and marketing for General Motors, LaNeve will now head up the agency that handles all of Ford advertising. LaNeve will also run the account for Lincoln. While at GM from 2001 to 2009, the exec oversaw ad campaigns like Cadillac's Breakthrough and sales initiatives like "Employee Pricing for Everyone."
He left in 2009 to join Allstate as chief marketing officer, oversaw the creation of the Mayhem ad spots and was moved into the role of VP of agency operations overseeing Allstate's 10,000 agents. He resigned from the insurer in February 2012 for personal reasons and joined Team Detroit in August 2012 as chief operating officer, in charge of satellite offices in New York and internationally. He replaces ex-CEO Cameron McNaughton, and will continue to hold the title of COO.
Lincoln is trying to get its 2013 back to rights after putting big dollar commercials for the 2013 MKZ on television then having production glitches preventing cars from getting to dealerships. With rumors of a relaunch in the works, it's no surprise LaNeve has been given the reins - and from here it looks like the brand is desperate for the kind of magic he's proved he can marshal. Perhaps he can start by calling a mulligan on the renaming exercise that gave us the hoary "Lincoln Motor Company" and go back to oh, say, "Lincoln." Then he can ask the product folks to get to work on the MKC concept...
