1952 Lincoln Continental Nineteen Fifty X

Announced in 1952, this was Ford's "Car of Tomorrow," a pilot model being studied toward future development as a practical five-passenger sedan. Called the Lincoln Continental Nineteen Fifty X, it served as a laboratory for the creation of new features for possible inclusion on production cars.

For fair-weather driving, the non-glare, low-heat transmitting top over the front seat retracted mechanically into the leather-covered canopy. Source: Internet

1940 Lincoln Continental Mark I

In 1938, Henry Ford’s son, Edsel, came home from a trip to Europe eager to drive an American-made car with continental flair. Within an hour, Bob Gregorie, Ford stylist and former yacht designer, had a sketch. By the time Edsel was ready for his winter drive to Florida, so was his car, which was such a hit among the Palm Beach set that Edsel called back to Dearborn, Mich., and said he could sell 1,000 of them. The company actually sold twice that many. Source: Internet Source: Internet

1936 Lincoln Zephyr

The Lincoln Zephyr, released in 1935, was a great success with its streamlined design. Its modern headlights embedded in the front fender and the elimination of the running board gave it a stylish, futuristic look. It was instantly popular. Its unitary-constructed, pressed-steel body created superb front and rear balance and influenced Volkswagen’s Beetle. The 1937 model, with a few changes, remained the same as the ones built in 1935.

2013 Lincoln MKZ

The Lincoln brand has been in the doldrums for years now, but Ford's luxury arm is looking to stage a comeback (again) starting with the all-new Lincoln MKZ. The brand's mid-size offering will be arriving in dealerships later this year, and we're getting our first glimpse of what's to come with this, the MKZ Concept that makes its debut at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show. The MKZ Concept features an all-new clean sheet design that head designer Max Wolff calls "simplicity with just a few strokes." The MKZ continues to feature the latest version of Lincoln's split wing front fascia, with a pair of tidy, multi-unit LED lights that flow out out of the grille. The body side design features a sharp crease at the beltline that helps the concept look wider and more athletic, and looking at the MKZ concept in profile reveals a sweeping roofline that looks unique and refined. We're big fans of the svelte side mirrors, which are about as thick as a strip steak and completely independent from the A-pillar. The concept also features a stunning, full glass roof that integrates into the body structure. Lincoln MKZ ConceptThe mirrors and the lightly tinted glass roof won't necessarily make their way to production (along with those oversized wheels), but the proportions of this MKZ is likely a spot-on match for the production model. Lincoln tells us that the concept features a 112-inch wheelbase – five inches shorter than the 2012 model. The concept is also wider than the 2012 model by more than an inch. The extra length should allow for a lot more interior volume, but many concept models show off a cabin that is more Buck Rodgers than production-ready. That's not the case with the MKZ concept, as Lincoln chose to show off duds that are likely very close to the model we'll soon find in dealerships. Among the interesting touches are a dash that features rich materials and beautiful wood accents, a new steering wheel design that features perforated leather and a new take on MyLincoln Touch. The center IP ditches the analog gauges in favor of a ten-inch thin film transistor LED instrument panel with sharp-looking graphics. The center stack shows of an eight-inch LCD screen with the now familiar MyLincoln Touch graphics, plus a touch-sensitive and knob-free set of HVAC controls. The most interesting part about the center console is the absence of a shift lever. Transmission controls are instead aligned vertically along the left edge of the stack, clearing up oodles of space for front row occupants. The center console also houses the push-button start and glove box release buttons. Ford hasn't given much information about the mechanicals under the hood of the concept vehicle, but the MKZ will feature the same Lincoln Drive Control and Continuously Controlled Damping adjustable suspension as the 2013 MKT and MKS.
