Lincoln opened the 1935 model year with all-new chassis and bodies. In order to achieve a lower center of gravity, the passenger space was moved forward by eleven inches, placing all seats ahead of the rear axle. This necessitated a similar movement in the engine and steering column. With lower seating, the bodies could be more streamlined.

For the first time in 1937, the Lincoln V-12 was fitted with hydraulic valve lifters. New styling blended the headlights into the front fender forms, which gave the Lincolns a more rounded and smooth look.

The 1937 Lincoln offered here was restored in 2009 by Canton Classic Car Museum and is powered by a V-12 engine that is said to be running strong, with a three-speed manual transmission. The paint is finished in Prussian blue with pinstriping, and it features a deluxe radiator ornament, artillery wheels and whitewall tires with chrome hubcaps. The interior of this limousine is fitted with Gray Cord leather interior and the driver’s seat was restored in 2012. It has a cigar lighter, dual windshield wipers and turn signals.
