1948 Lincoln Continental two door with 13,000 miles. The car has V12 an original leather interior. I have owned for five years would like to sell or trade for convertible Cadillac Lincoln or Imperial of equal value. I can trade up or down, depending on what your car is worth.  ...
Our Take:
- The 1948 Lincoln Continental is a part of the last batch of American production cars to feature a V12 engine. This engine choice wasn't just about power—though it did pack a punch—but also about maintaining that smooth, luxurious ride Lincoln was known for. As one of the final pre-war luxury models with post-war touch-ups, it's a blend of old-world craftsmanship and emerging post-war design trends.
- This model year is particularly significant as it marks the end of the first generation of Continentals. Originally launched in 1939, the Continental was designed by Edsel Ford and is widely regarded as an early example of personal luxury cars. For fans of the golden age of American automobiles, owning one is like holding a piece of automotive history.
- With only 13,000 miles driven, this Lincoln is a rare gem. Finding a classic car with such low mileage is akin to discovering a vintage vinyl record still sealed in its original cover. The low mileage suggests a life of careful stewardship or possibly long periods of hibernation, preserving its original features.
- The original leather interior adds a touch of authenticity to its classic appeal. Back in '48, leather wasn't just a material—it was a statement of luxury. Despite the years, well-preserved original leather can still evoke that unmistakable aroma and feel that enthusiasts deeply appreciate. It’s like stepping back in time every time you open the door.
