Pure Lincoln/Ford iron, 1 of only
2,500 produced, solid surviving original 1939 Zephyr
3-passenger V-12 coupes are almost non-existent and "very
rarely" become available. The current owner of this car
chased it for 20 years before he could actually convince
the prior caretaker to let it go. Since then he has kept
it hidden and quietly resting indoors before recently
shipping it to his Arizona home. With many fine cars in
his collection, he has decided, he simply does not have
the time to spend with this old girl, it's now your turn to be the next
caretaker...
The perfect candidate for a high level
restoration, it is a good running "solid type driver" that
can be enjoyed while you take it to the next level of
historic glory. With that said, over the years,
these have become as rare as Hens Teeth, "so to speak", with a recent upper end 2012 restored example commanding
$220,000 USD during a recent Scottsdale 2015-Gooding &
Company auction at no-reserve and other known auction
examples bringing over $250K..
Yes, we know this example is not
restored to that level and/or perfect but we have estimated its
value accordingly, it is purely honest and a true survivor
with no excuses and very comfortable in its own presence. In
order for you to make an educated decision, we have
covered just about every area in our documentation &
included a 19+ minute HD video for your own
consideration/review...
