The 337 cu. in. flattie was conceived as a truck engine also. In those times, when passenger car engines were powering hard-working trucks, the simple construction and a stunningly long service life were the base condition for success, forget about the electronic gadgetry. Just change the oil as scheduled, keep the tune-up as prescribed by the factory, and the engine will outlive your great-grandchildren.
I lived in Cecil county MD. for several years. There were a number of"cab-over" trucks from the forties with the big Flattie around town.
@@beavis_loves_you Oil is cheap, pistons and crankshafts are very expensive. Not changing oil is misplaced economy.
@Abaldcatgoesmeow 10 years overdue? Probably too thick to run out the drain hole by now lol
They were going to build a new V12 for this car in 1949 but there wasn't time so they used this large truck engine, and it was a good engine
I'm 61 and this is the most beautiful car I've seen.
Very pretty car. When I was a little kid in the 60s, an old guy a couple streets over had one like this. Not sure if it was a '51 or not but it looked a lot like this one. I distinctly remember those recessed headlights.
I’m Canadian. 67 years old. First. Time. Seeing this. Lincoln. Just. When. You. Think. You. Seen it. All. Never say. Never. Thanks
That's the smoothest engine idle I've seen in my 77 years!
…truly lovely ‘51 Cosmopolitan for ‘51, dressed here in Avon Blue…
…often derided by certain members of the automotive press as “upside-down bathtubs”…I personally am a huge fan of this ultra-clean and streamlined look…
…and Lincoln did carry forward the oft used rear-hinged rear doors aka “suicide” styling which had been very popular during the 1930’s…and, they were very much designed to ease the entrance and egress for rear seat passengers…
…Lincoln often utilized aviation inspired design cues; and the propeller-inspired dash control knobs are certainly expressive…
…whomsoever rolls away with this cherished ‘51 will have a true museum quality piece of premium luxury mid-century motoring…
We had a 51 Lincoln out at our ranch and when my dads tractor broke down hauling large rocks around behind it, he got a large piece of sheet metal, put a pick axe through the two corners, hooked a chain to the metal through those corner holes, hooked it to a bumper hitch on the 51 and rolled the heavy rocks onto it to complete moving those large rocks out of the field!!
I believe this is the year and model that won the US/Mex Pan America off road race that year. A very cool car.
Wrong, it was the 52 model with the new 317 ci.overhead valve V-8.
@@jeromebreeding3302 I believe it was 52, 53, and 54
My grandmother had a '49. Three on the tree, black. First car I remember riding in.
You just don’t see these model Lincoln’s at car shows. A nice luxury car of its time. The high class Ford.
I love the space and the openness of the interior - the seats look like you could get a good 8 hour snooze w/o a problem !!!
That is a really beautiful car. The style is fantastic.
LOOKS SIMILIAR TO THE HUDSON STYLING OF THE DAY ! BEAUTIFUL !
‘49 & ‘50, same body but more 1940s-ish details. ‘51 was more transitional, as ‘52 was the big body change. Nice coverage, but no trunk interior shots. Was curious about the spare & jack arrangement.
I like the Dashboard 😊
It replaced the original completely different 1949 one in 1950.
I have never been keen on sky blue cars.......until I saw this gorgeous Lincoln. Love it. Wish we could buy these automotive masterpieces in Australia.

Those backup lights are just blinding.😮 I had a 62 chevy II and back up lights were still a option then. Must say that’s the first rear wiper I’ve seen.
Packards had rear wipers at about the same time. Also an option.
@@billolsen4360 Optional on many cars. I've seen them on Pontiac, Nashe, Oldsmobile, and other cars.
My parents had a 1954 Lincoln and one of the options was a rear wiper. I think I saw one once. It was an option up until 1955 if I’m not mistaken.
The 55 also had it, as it was nearly identical to the 54.
This is art.
It's a wonderful and beautiful car.
At the Key West Winter White House favored by Harry Truman they have a custom built '49 Lincoln Cosmopolitan Presidential limousine. The car is rolled out for viewing on days when the weather is clear.
IF I WON THE LOTTERY I WOULD GLADLY PAY $23,900 FOR THIS LINCOLN SUICIDE DOOR CLASSIC RIDE
Very nice
I like these machines
Thank you for the video
Lube the speedo cable , should fix it.
Beautiful !✨
Beautiful car.
Nice!
WHISPER QUIET, JUST AS IT SHOULD BE ! NICE CAR !
What a beautiful looking car
beautiful car!!!
What an incredibly beautiful car. For some reason people are not appreciating these cars from the 50's and earlier, but this is a way nicer car than some HEMI from the 60's or 70's. This car is worth more then 24,000 but the market just doesn't get it yet, This would be a solid investment, there's not many of these anymore, and not in this good of shape, and most people would agree that American cars in the 50's were the most beautiful cars ever made. Now I wouldn't drive this everyday, that's what my Mercedes E320CDI is for with it's 50mpg, but if I had a garage to park this in or a little more money to afford a storage room, oh man, I would just sit on it. I would ship this car to Italy and I would drive it around Milan with all my friend in it wearing a beautiful suit on the weekends.
Buy it store it in your garage...and you'll have a classic gem to treasure...beautiful..
What a beautiful car
'49-'51 Linc's were underappreciated, they were overshadowed by Caddys with their fins, eggcrate grilles, and excellent OHV V8's. '52-'55's were sleek and modern but didn't quite compete with Caddy. '56 was the year they soared...
Looks good.
Very nice automobile
Such a beautiful car..
Never seen one of these before!
I like it.
Now that is classy 😅
A rear wiper is because of absence of side mirrors I guess. Masterpiece!!!
That's a nice car
Nice Lincoln! Good it comes with a 3 month/500 mile warranty. I wouldn’t waste my money on an extended warranty. They aren’t worth the paper they are written on.
Idk, with all the tech in cars these days its the only way to go. I have it on my 18 Cadillac, I don't even buy batteries!
The iconic car
Great card ❤😂.
I think Studebakers with suicide doors had a safety feature where the back door wouldn’t open unless the front door was opened first.
I never knew that but a great idea.😀😀😀
That touchy Neutral position to start the car became well-known in the late 1950s Ford-o-Matic days. The car wouldn't start unless you were in "upper neutral."
These cars when they came out fall of 48 for the new 1949 lincoln was a very contemporary look. Only thing I have heard is they are not easy to drive as power steering hadn't come out yet. My Aunt bought a new 50 Lincoln Cosmopolitan, she had it about 3 years
And didn't need to go visit a gym, within those 3 years?
@@al_dente4777 i think most people were used to not having power steering, she had one of the first Oldsmobile hydramatic and this Lincoln also had a GM hydamatic. She got rid of it after she had issues with the hydrologic power Windows one night a couple hours away from home,
I believe a Lincoln Cosmopolitan was used in a few scenes in the movie White Heat with James Cagney.
There could have been a Lincoln I don't recall but I know there was a Mercury and this car and Mercury share a similar body style
Beautiful cars. No need to "customize", they already came that way from the factory.
I don't mind low riders or customs but I would hope that would remain just as is.
Beautiful....😻💞
The low oil pressure is a concern. It may be a defective gage or normal electrical operation for that year, defective oil pressure sensor (on the engine), extra heavy weight oil (may burn oil so heavier viscosity oil is in the engine). It had been running earlier so I'm assuming the oil has some heat in it possibly resulting in lower oil pressure, but the gauge should move up in a rapid manner. Ford cheaped out on their Y-block V8's using a gear type oil pump which would lose oil pressure as the miles added up . My '55 Ford 272"" didn't have an oil pressure gauge (just a red light) so you'd never know if the pressure was dropping. I knew several people in the early '60's with destroyed engines, due to low oil pressure. In a surprising development, when I bought a new oil pump for the engine, the Ford replacement was a rotary vane pump (like Chrysler).
Nice throughout (I guess the trunk must have been full or some other way not show ready).
It's worth more than what you're asking, this a bargain price.
When automobiles were works of art…..
Cool, my year of birth.
It shouldn't crank that slow. Are BOTH battery cables a thick enough gauge? That battery disconnect switch might be the problem. It should be rated for at least 600 amps.
Car is gorgeous, I'm looking for a 61, couldn't touch one for 23 k.
Golly Molly!
Good.
The rock
Looks like my Dad's old 1951 Mercury.
This is the big Lincoln in 49 - 51.
Add it to the list
Muy bonitos carros yo tengo uno es 51
I'm looking for a car or truck, that I can buy and take a tour through the states...
How much power?Air conditioner?
Where are the side rearview mirrors?
They were optional then.
No trunk photos?
henry number 2 was a head head,
Soo beautiful car
Man that a lot of baby blue. Looks like they did not spend enough time in prep. B 4 painting. Paint will show the defects not hide them.😆😆😆
Electric windows?
Hydraulic windows.
Please please Don’t slam the car doors it ruins the latches and then you have to slam them all the time to get them to shut tight.
It's surprising to me that a 51 Lincoln would have external trunk latches .
You mean hinges. The also all-new 1949 Fords had them but put them inside for the third year of the body in 1951. They do mean no hinge intrusion inside the trunk and maybe Ford designers thought they were cool. Oddly the 1949-51 Mercurys didn't have them.
Where else would they be?
Wow, a car that cost $1000 then only costs $23,000 now. Make sure you have an extra $20,000 to keep it running.
$1000 in 1951 dollars equates to roughly $11390 in 2023. In that regard this car was a bargain when it was new!
@rockets4kids Sorry, but I don't buy that manipulation of money by the government. If you decide to get back to reality, it would have been $20,000! Just like a sandwich was around 35 cents then. That's $7.00 for a sandwich now. Now go check out a Whopper or Big Mac now for $7.00! Oh, and a small house was $5000 to $8000 then. Now, they are $100,000 or more.
Megustaria tener uno
Where would you find parts for it when you’d eventually need them ?
Guys in Cuba for decades managed to keep these going despite almost zero access to parts.
@@noneed4me2n7 the ones in Cuba are running on Mitsubishi engines
@@noneed4me2n7 probably the only thing that would stills be “original” over there would be the glass. But looking for parts is part of the fun. I can understand more and more the Resto mod. For later on Driving.
Just swap an LS engine in there...
They got parts from Brazil, Argentina, and other South American countries.
I don’t get why the cars in the fifties and sixties had better fit and finish than those in the 70’s and 80’s.
Quality, & pride might be two reasons. Productivity was a little slower then.
In the 70-90’s it’s was push it out the door & let the Dealerships deal with making it right.
Lots of safety features & conveniences came available thru the years, but the style, ride, & looks of the older cars can’t be beat.
No EV will be this nice.
Because there was no EPA and no CAFE, so they had the time to work these details out BEFORE they officially came out.
W O W⚡️💥🔥😍
Old is gooold
Looks like a Kaiser Manhattan.
I thought the same thing! The Kaiser had a nicer dash in my opinion but it lacked the V8.
Nice car it needs a Coyote with aod!
Scarce vehicle.
Holy courusant thats emperor palpatines car 🤟 😊 wow absolutly powerfull 😎 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 thanks
Reminds me of a manatee.

Never understood why the Lincoln Flathead got practically zero attention from hot-rodders.
But they made a great song about it, "Hot Rod Lincoln."
@@billkrebaum Wrong V-12. The hot-rod Lincoln had the V-12 from the Zepher(39-48). The 49-51 had a 337ci. V-8. Neither engine got a nod from hot-rodders.
Cost and weight/bulk. Most hot rods were old Fords. This engine wouldn't easily fit, plus, the weight would make a smaller car, like a Ford or Chevy too nose-heavy.
Undercarriage tells the tale. Honest dealer for those in the know..
Nice car. Too bad about the color.
Alot of cars had this similar shape. Mercury, Hudson, Packard. I never really liked the design. Too much like an old bathtub.
Beautiful and ugly at the same time.
Whi can afford this in the poor Obiden economy?
$23,900 lol ill give you 1200 for it
only 23
