For 1951, the Lincoln was easily recognizable by the sweep of its new-for-1951 full fender styling. The proud Lincoln brand displayed a rich and spacious interior with luxury appointments. It was indeed a car designed and built to master the highways of America. It had a deep, cushioned ride that was driven by the abundant power and spirit of its Lincoln engine that was magnificent in performance and nearly silent in operation.

Affirming once again that few cars were finer; this dark gray Lincoln has a lighter toned top and a complementary gray cloth interior. Factory accessories and equipment include rare exterior sunvisor, famous flathead 336.7-cid, 154-hp V-8 engine, automatic transmission, full factory fender skirts, AM radio, “suicide” hinged rear doors, clock, gas door guard, front and rear bumper guards, fold-down center armrest, distinctive body moldings, proper width radial whitewall tires and factory wheel covers. This beauty is as great mechanically as it is cosmetically and is stated to run so quietly you can barely hear it, and a transmission that shifts smoothly and operates like new. The little used Lincoln is reported to have “piles of documentation,” including a photograph of the original owner. An owner-generated notebook with car related information is said to accompany the Lincoln. This is an uncommon model with 12,279 similar four-door Sport Sedans built; it is still in amazing condition and is a thrilling creation that was master-crafted in every detail.
