Description for Lincoln Other 1957

1957 Lincoln Capri Hardtop

This Winged wonder from the Ford Motor Co. was originally purchased and lived in warm dry Las Vegas Nevada. Spent most of its entire life there. In 2006 it underwent an engine and transmission update with a completely rebuilt 351 Windsor engine and rebuilt automatic overdrive transmission. At that time and aluminum Edelbrock intake manifold and new 4 barrel carb was added. An MSD ignition system was installed tom ensure quick starts and smooth running. A new interior was installed in the original pattern and 2 tone blue color. The car originally had air conditioning. The AC unit was mounted in the trunk and blew air in the duct work concealed in the head liner. That unit is no longer there but the duct work remains. The Vintage Air Co. makes a replacement unit for this car. The car has had one quality repaint in 2006 in its original Azure Blue and Colonial White colors. This example of 50's style classic will give you comfortable cruising at 70-75 mph at almost 18mpg. This rare Lincoln is as clean underneath as on top. When you check out this car be sure to bring your magnet. Not a bit of filler anywhere. "When is the last time you saw one"
