The 1946 model year marked the return of the Continental following the wartime production halt, continuing the design legacy of Edsel Ford's original personal luxury car. The 1946 Lincoln Continental is recognized as a 'Full Classic' by the Classic Car Club of America. This example comes from long-term Arizona ownership and is a documented show winner, taking Best of Show and Best Classic at the 2022 RRHS Cheer Booster Club Car Show, Best in Show at Silver Springs in April 2022, and the Mayor's Pick award presented by the Town of Sahuarita. The Continental is accompanied by an owner's manual, a binder of service records and receipts, and a library of period Ford, Mercury, and Lincoln service manuals and bulletins!
The exterior of the Lincoln is finished in maroon that is in overall great condition with good depth and color, no fading, and only some light scratches, touched-up spots, and minimal rock chips. The chrome and brightwork are in great condition with some wear and scratching showing, and the windshield and glass are in great condition. The Continental has its signature rear-mounted spare tire, steel wheels with BF Goodrich wide whitewall tires, functioning headlights and taillights, and a working horn. The Lincoln is a lovely example that maintains its classic Continental presentation!
The interior of the Lincoln is in overall excellent condition, featuring a maroon leather and brown cloth combination with excellent maroon carpeting, maroon piping, and an excellent headliner. The Continental is equipped with power windows that are functioning on both the driver and passenger sides. Instrumentation includes a functioning speedometer, fuel gauge, oil pressure gauge, amperage gauge, and engine temperature gauge, with a clock that is not working.

Mechanically, the Lincoln is powered by its V12 engine equipped with a carburetor and three-speed manual transmission.

Recent service records document a fuel pump replacement, new shock links, fresh fuel lines, and regular oil and lubrication service. The heater hoses are currently not connected to the heater core.
