Vehicle Description
Postwar American luxury at its most refined -- meet this 1950 Lincoln Cosmopolitan Capri.
The Cosmopolitan was Lincoln`s flagship in the early postwar years, and the Capri was its crown jewel. Introduced for 1950 as a special deluxe hardtop-style coupe, the Capri set itself apart with a fabric-covered roof, elegant fender skirts, and super-deluxe upholstery -- touches that turned an already prestigious Lincoln into something truly exclusive. It carried a price premium over the standard Cosmopolitan coupe, and it was never a big seller: the Capri and its Lido sibling were built for just two years (1950-51), and their numbers were never even broken out separately, with surviving estimates topping out at only a thousand or two. That rarity is exactly what makes this car such a special find today.
Under the hood lives the 337 cu in Lincoln flathead V8 -- the ``jumbo`` flathead shared with Lincoln`s heavy-duty line -- backed by the smooth-shifting GM Hydra-Matic 4-speed automatic. Lincoln was actually one of the first to offer this proven Hydra-Matic, giving the big Cosmopolitan effortless, modern-feeling cruising manners that still shine on the open road.
Finished in a striking Dark Blue over a handsome Blue two-tone interior, this Capri presents beautifully and drives like the premium touring car it was born to be.
