Description
Lot #1416 - Starting with a very unique body style, this 1958 Lincoln Continental convertible known as "Maybellene" has undergone a massive transformation yet is tastefully presented. The car has been set on an Art Morrison GT Sport chassis and features 16-inch Wilwood brakes as well as 6-way adjustable suspension via AccuAir. Between the front frame rails is a Ryan Falconer-built 600ci V12 conservatively rated at 1,000hp. The fully custom V12 engine is topped with twin Magnuson superchargers as well as custom-fabricated stainless-steel headers and exhaust system with a push-button single exhaust cutout to bypass the Borla mufflers. The body of this Bohemian beauty has been modified by tucking the massive bumpers in and replacing the stock rear quarters. Thousands of hours were spent to perfect the body, which is coated in Modern Classikk by Kindig "Teal Later" paint. The entire taillight panel is custom LED as is the rear grille, which is made of polished stainless. The front grille is straight, bright and perfect and, as with the theme of "Hot Rod Lincoln," the hood has been accentuated with an acrylic bubble exposing the twin supercharged engine. Built by JS Custom Interiors, the highly customized Lincoln interior features one-off Dakota Digital gauges that appear to float in midair while sitting behind the restored stock steering wheel, and plush "Beer Foam" leather T-bird seats.
