New for 1942, Lincoln cars featured a more reliable 305 cubic-inch version of the flathead Zephyr V12. They also received a flashy face lift with higher squared off fenders, a reduced ride height and more complex grillwork.
The current owners of this car acquired the car from a close friend, Richard Grills of Rhode Island. Mr. Grills supplied camouflage to the United States government and maintained his own restoration facility at his plant. Grills had acquired the car from a Mr. Stafford, a professor at the Rhode Island School of Design.
It underwent a multi-year frame-off restoration that was completed in the fall of 2011.
