Vehicle Description

Luxury at its finest.
West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional and outstanding example of a 1940 Lincoln Zephyr V12 Continental Convertible. Reportedly only 350 of these hand built 1940 Lincoln Zephyr V12 Continental Convertible models were built with very few still known to exist according to the Lincoln Zephyr Owners Club.
Following a restoration in 2002, overseen by a dedicated Lincoln specialist, this Continental Convertible has garnered numerous awards, including several important honors from the Lincoln & Continental Owners Club, such as the best primary Lincoln Continental in 2003 and the Best Senior Lincoln Continental in 2004 a testimony to both the quality of the restoration and the attention to authenticity.
Its Black nitrocellulose lacquer paint is complemented by a matching black canvas roof accented with Red piping. The interior is finished in striking Oxblood red leather and the dashboard houses a radio, heater, and a full array of gauges. The power-operated convertible top lowers neatly behind the rear seat and is covered by a matching canvas boot.
Power is provided by the 12-cylinder Lincoln H-series engine enlarged to a displacement of 292 cid for 1940 and this example features the optional Columbia overdrive unit, which allows for comfortable high-speed cruising.
The car benefited from a mechanical refresh in 2022 and still presents in show quality today. Welcome at all CCCA judging and tour events, with reportedly just 16 of 1940 Continentals convertibles being listed in its current roster. Authentically restored to exacting standards, this impressive example is ready to be appreciated for its design significance as well as its multi-cylinder touring ability.
One of Just 350 Convertibles Built for 1940 with reportedly only 16 listed as having survived.
