Ford’s answer to Cadillac - Lincoln offered levels of luxury most could only dream of. The Lincoln range included the tasteful, limited production ‘56 Continental Mark II hardtop, the outrageous glamour and style of the late 1950s Premiere, Landau and hardtop sedans and convertibles and from 1961, Lincoln offered its’ most memorable series with the Continental four door pillarless sedans and convertibles. With trademark rear-hinged or ‘suicide doors’ for backseat passengers, the Continental offered something truly unique at a time when cars were beginning to look more and more alike. The magnificent Continental convertible was the last factory produced four door convertible ever made. Engines started at 430 cubic inches from 1958 and climbed all the way to 460 cubes by the late ‘60s and lasted well into the 1970s.
