This 1940 Lincoln Zephyr is a great place to start when creating a custom street machine. After all, it has a distinctive premium look up front, and then the full body gives you a one-of-a-kind coupe style. And when you add in solid small block V8 power and a loaded A/C interior, you get true distinction in a truly awesome custom.
It's hard to describe this car as anything but a restomod because Lincoln never gave you anything like this in 1940. This is a custom coupe body said to be inspired by the kind of unique street machine that may have come from George Barris or Ed Roth. The red and black are a great color combo with a quality shine to show off the custom curves. It has quite a good finish quality for a custom car where the full-length trim highlights how well the panels fit and separates the two-tone. This has some of the right hot rod touches like the sleek deleted badging, silver-painted bumpers, and the frenched license plate. And we love the style of the steel wheels painted to match the red and given bright trim rings. But while this is a true custom, it also keeps some terrific details of the classic Lincolns of the era. The headlight bezels and butterfly are correct for 1940, and the grille has plenty of first-gen Continental style. The push-button door handles and wraparound tail light trim were some of the hallmarks of the immediate post-war era. And the design of the custom trunk reminds us of the Continental Club Coupe. So it's a true custom car, but you also get to see how it respects its history. In fact, while the inspiration was the custom cars coming out of the 1950s, we'd almost say this is the spiritual forefather to later cars like the Lincoln Continental MkIII and MkIV. After all, it has the same extra-long proportions that owned the road, and the interior is just as luxurious, too.
The interior has a great classic attitude with the seats and door panels done in a classic tuck and roll pattern. And as you look closer, you can see the attention to detail with the red contrast stitching. It's a feeling of quality you see throughout the interior. While the car is inspired by classic ideas, you also know it's a modern build by its long list of amenities. It includes power windows, an armrest center console, cup holders, and cold-blowing air conditioning. And of course, a car like this was made to be a great cruiser. That's why you have plenty of great driver's upgrades. It starts with the front bucket seats that have modern bolstering for all-day comfort. There are retro-cool pieces, like the Lokar-style shifter, well-integrated AutoMeter aux readouts, a banjo-style steering wheel on a tilt column, and a horizon tach. But that art deco factory speedo is still dominating the driver's side of the dash to remind you that this is a true classic.
Under the hood is the right upgrade for a car that wants to be both a custom classic and a true cruiser. The 350 cubic-inch V8 looks nice with the bold block and all the polished components nestled within the dark and tidy engine bay. It's built for added pep with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an upgraded intake, and headers feeding the dual exhaust. It has the right supporting pieces for a true cruiser, like an HEI distributor and an aluminum radiator with electric fan. This Lincoln still rides on its classic chassis for an authentic vintage car experience. But because "cruiser" has been such a buzzword for this one, you also know they made the right additions for a solid driver. You have a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, front discs, and modern touring tires.
This is a full custom classic that was built to take you comfortably in style. You often only get one chance at a one-of-a-kind so don't miss this deal. Call today!!!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES
: A documentation fee of 9 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION
: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT
: We require a non-refundable 0 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers.
SHIPPING
: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE
: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!

Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.
