[@knowbodiesfull5768]

Hello Lou! I was just sitting here messing with my phone, and i typed 1956 Lincoln Premiere in the KZbin search engine just to see what I would find. And I found this - another one of your fabulous videos on another fabulous mid-1950s car. The LINCOLN PREMIERE FOR 1956! Now here we are in 2024, and a car like this is not what we see every day now. Lincoln was going up against Cadillac (as usual) and, over at Chrysler, Imperial was in its second year as a separate brand. Packard, meanwhile, was in its final year before the arrival of those "Packardbakers" that eventually drove it to its grave a short two years later. Many choices for luxury car buyers in 1956. Those were the days! Thanks again, Lou, for another video. You always bring out one great and interesting video after another!

[@loucostabile]

Hello Know Bodies Full, Thanks for sharing the KZbin search is bringing you to a video I've done. You're right, you don't see this car today. Thanks for viewing and sharing your knowledge. You're welcome. Thought you'd like to see this one, Lou kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJqodnSahMqtjJY

Gorgeous car. I always loved the Ford concept cars of the early '50's like the XM-800 and Mystere, and this car was the closest actual production car to their styling cues. Very elegant tasteful lines. One of my all time favorites for sure.

Arguably, the ‘56 Lincolns were among the most beautifully designed ones to roll off the assembly line. And the pastels color palette with matching leather interiors topped all other manufacturers’ offerings. Beautiful car!

Hi Noel, High praise of the design of this car :-) Lou

[@TralfazConstruction]

My parents bought one used in "59. Mom and Dad decided to get it painted at Earl Scheib in a black over yellow color. I don't recall the original color but odds are it started out something pale. The car turns up in some of our earliest home movies. I remember riding in it with its white interior.

¡Qué llamativo se veía este Lincon Premiere Coupé 1956 con esa combinación de rosa y techo blanco! Este auto tiene tantos detalles que sería demasiado largo nombrarlos. Pero lo que más me llamó la atención, fueron esos conductos situados en la parte posterior para conducir el aire a través de tubos transparentes hacia cuatro ventilas situadas en el techo. Además, de las ventanas traseras que se abren y cierran eléctricamente... Y, como de costumbre, esos llamativos manuales y catálogos, con fotos e ilustraciones imperdibles de la época. ¡Felicidades al señor Price, por adquirir el auto de sus sueños! ¡Y a ti, Lou, por mostrarnos está gema automotriz!

As I recall, Lincoln For 56 was given an award for styling by some engineering organization. 🏆 Lincoln was the last to offer a full size RWD Luxury Sedan.

It's interesting Dennis says a friend had this same color car in the early sixties. One of our neighbors had this same color scheme on a '56 Lincoln circa 1964. So it brought back some childhood memories. That engine sounds ferocious! And it looked like it has a padded dash, unusual in '56.

Hi Slick, High praise for the styling of this car :-) Lou

[@curbozerboomer1773]

This really brings me back!...While stationed in the Navy in San Diego, 1970--I somehow found a jewel of a 1957 Lincoln Premiere. Turquoise color, 4-door, with that 368 engine (for 57, the hp was boosted to an even 300) The car at that time had only 33,000 miles on it...and I bought it for $800 bucks!...Being a young idiot about cars, I decided to sell it less than a year later. Over these last 50+ years now, I have not seen more than a half-dozen of these excellent cruisers, here in the Seattle area. I have read, that the 1957 model was not popular with Lincoln fans...and in 1958, Lincoln changed the styling dramatically, and stuck with that new look, for over a decade. The 1957 model year sported large fins--not appreciated by the wealthier car buyers, I guess!...that model year was the lowest-selling year of the 1950s, for Lincoln.

Lou, my neighbor had a '57 just like this one except for huge tail fins. One very strange option was an automatic starter system. It would start for you and be nice and warm in the winter or it would kill the battery trying to fire up. Strange, very strange option. His was Aqua with a white top.

Our neighbors across the alley had a cream-white 1957 Premiere with cream and turquoise upholstery, factory AC (I loved the tubes) and a Continental Kit. The car was so long that their garage door couldn't close. They owned the only fountain pen sales and repair shop in Downtown Los Angeles and made a good living. They replaced it in 1965 with a Ford Country Squire Galaxie station wagon.
