The 1956 Lincoln Premiere was bold, distinct, powerful, loaded, and premium when new. It's the kind of car that was admired when it first hit the streets, and that kind of esteem only grows as it continues to become a rarer and rarer classic. And this is an impressively detailed example everywhere from the larger V8 to the cold-blowing A/C interior. So to find an example that so accurately represents its era is an irresistible opportunity.
The Premiere line premiered for 1956, and while the front-end styling was only around for one year, you can't help but find it iconic and familiar. That's because the design is based on the concept car that would become Adam West's Batmobile. So it was a look that was certainly ahead of its time. But this sedan is a celebrity for its level of authenticity - even the low odometer is believed to represent the full mileage. The black paint has a nice gloss and the white roof gives this the premium impression of formalwear. The overall impression of this car is about presenting classic features with a driver-ready and driver-quality package. It's terrific for those who love to cruise their classics, and those who need to be a showstopper will see ... Please ask for the full description.

Description
The 1956 Lincoln Premiere was bold, distinct, powerful, loaded, and premium when new. It's the kind of car that was admired when it first hit the streets, and that kind of esteem only grows as it continues to become a rarer and rarer classic. And this is an impressively detailed example everywhere from the larger V8 to the cold-blowing A/C interior. So to find an example that so accurately represents its era is an irresistible opportunity.
The Premiere line premiered for 1956, and while the front-end styling was only around for one year, you can't help but find it iconic and familiar. That's because the design is based on the concept car that would become Adam West's Batmobile. So it was a look that was certainly ahead of its time. But this sedan is a celebrity for its level of authenticity - even the low odometer is believed to represent the full mileage. The black paint has a nice gloss and the white roof gives this the premium impression of formalwear. The overall impression of this car is about presenting classic features with a driver-ready and driver-quality package. It's terrific for those who love to cruise their classics, and those who need to be a showstopper will see the value price as an impressive starting point for an already beautiful Lincoln. The brightwork makes for an imposing front end with trim that seems to shield the headlights and ultra-wide wraparound bumpers. The trim along the side shows off the round roof, wraparound windshield, and the overall straightness of the sheet metal. The rear mixes more of the imposing style in the bumpers with integrated exhaust and a panel insert that looks like it belongs on a jukebox. Whitewall tires, fender skirts, and artful badging are all part of this carefully presented vintage presentation.
The tuxedo-like presentation of the car continues inside. The black and white are impressively intertwined on the seating, door panels, dash, and steering wheel. It makes for a very vintage and very premium appearance. The Premiere was the range-topper, and so you got standard features that were the envy of others, like a power front seat and power windows. And the level of detail in this one is impressive. The stylish courtesy lights greet you when the door opens, the automatic headlight dimmer (an ultra-rare 1956 feature) is still on the dash for display, and the Town and Country AM radio is still cranking out tunes. The factory air conditioning system was even routed through the roof, and this one has been kept correct while also blowing cold with modern R134a refrigerant. So with this level of comfort, you can really understand why this classic makes for a terrific cruiser today.
Open the hood on this car and you will notice that everything appears stock and well maintained. A nice feature here is that Lincoln moved to a 12-volt electrical system this year, and so the car starts easily and there is plenty of power to run all those accessories. Also, 1956 was when Lincoln's hardy Y-block motor was enlarged to its largest displacement: 368 cubic inches. Topped with a four-barrel carburetor, this swiftly moves this sedan with the right kind of premium power. The three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes all make for an easy driving experience.
The sale comes complete with title documentation, maintenance records, and service manuals. This is a rare classic luxury presented with the respected style that keeps it a premium cruiser. Call today!!!
