1949 Lincoln Cosmopolitian Convertible BARN FIND Running Again After 30 Yrs!!- Part II

Part II of III- Everyone loves a BARN FIND. This is a short video about us starting it for the first time. After a month of soaking in Marvel Mystery Oil and cleaning the fuel system, etc. we cranked her up. She ran terrific with NO NOISES!! We then tested the transmission which worked great too. Guess what, even the blinkers worked great. What could be better? More details at www.classicpromenade.com

It's the Lincoln flathead V8.  Great power with a GM Hydomatic 4 speed automatic tranny!!

Beautiful find :) I will advise against hand-choking a teapot without wearing fire resistant gloves though ;P Don't restore it, make it roadable & drive the heck out of it, and enjoy!

Looks great! Now dont paint it and stuff like that. Rub and polish it if there are no serious flaws in the paintwork.

It is a beautiful car. It's to bad they don't make cars like this one anymore cars back than were made to last now days the aren't built that great so they don't last long.
