Vehicle Description
1956 Lincoln Premiere Sedan – California Car – Full Professional Restoration – 368ci V8 This beautiful 1956 Lincoln Premiere 4-Door Sedan is a striking example of Lincoln’s fabulous mid-century luxury and styling. A California car, it has undergone a full professional restoration with no expense spared and has since been meticulously maintained and always stored in temperature-controlled storage. Finished in the gorgeous factory-style combination of Island Coral with a Presidential Black roof, this Premiere has tremendous presence. The high-gloss finish is complemented by excellent body panels, lines and gaps, along with beautifully presented chrome and brightwork. Gold-tone Premiere badging, fender skirts, wide whitewall tires, factory-style wheel covers, dramatic tailfins and Lincoln’s distinctive integrated rear exhaust outlets complete the unmistakable 1950s appearance. Under the hood is Lincoln’s powerful 368ci V8, paired with a 3-speed Turbo-Drive automatic transmission. As one of America’s premier luxury automobiles of its era, this Lincoln is impressively equipped with power steering, power brakes, power windows, power seat and power door locks. The beautifully restored interior features coral upholstery with contrasting black fabric inserts. The seats, headliner, door panels, dashboard and carpeting all present in excellent condition. Lincoln’s dramatic sweeping 130-mph speedometer, distinctive controls and expansive passenger compartment showcase the level of luxury expected from Lincoln’s top-line Premiere. The odometer shows approximately 49,xxx miles. Lights, gauges, turn signals, windshield wipers, radio and accessories are reported to be in proper working condition. The quality continues underneath. The undercarriage is reported to be as impressive as the rest of the automobile, with no rust, rot, soft spots or known areas of concern. The original-style identification plate remains in place and shows Serial No. 56LA11156L and Style BY73B, identifying it as a 1956 Lincoln Premiere four-door sedan. The “LA” serial-number designation is consistent with Los Angeles production, adding nicely to this car’s California history. Combining its California provenance, 49,xxx actual miles, professional restoration, Island Coral and Presidential Black color combination, 368ci V8 and extensive power equipment, this is an outstanding turnkey example of one of Lincoln’s most dramatic designs of the 1950s. |
