Štai žiūrėk, kokį 1941 - ujų Zephyr Club Coupe modelį rodo tų laikų pardavimo brošiūra. Tai jau vien iš išvaizdos du skirtingi automobiliai.
Ir ant automobilio priekinio sparno ties keleivio durelėmis nėra užrašo Continental - kaip kad nuoraukoje yra
( Continental ir Zephyr 1941 -ais tai buvo jau atskiri modeliai).
Cia del noro pasigincyti...

Ne tiesiog mislems imamus modelius anksciau patikrindavau ir iki siol sis pardavejas pateikdavo teisingus duomenis, bet vat siuo atveju netikrinau, bet tai padariau dabar...Taigi tikriausiai kolega, kurio zinais tikrai gerbiu zinote, kad Lincoln Continental buvo sukurta butent is Lincoln Zephyr...(Saltinis Wikipedia)
The first Lincoln Continental was developed initially as Edsel Ford's one-off personal vehicle, though it is believed he planned all along to put the model into production if it was successful. In 1938, he commissioned a custom design from the chief stylist, Bob Gregorie, ready for Edsel's March 1939 vacation. The design, allegedly sketched out in an hour by Gregorie working from the Lincoln Zephyr blueprints and making changes, was an elegant convertible with a long hood covering the Lincoln V12 and long front fenders, and a short trunk with what became the Continental series' trademark, the externally-mounted covered spare tire.
The car could be considered a channeled and sectioned Zephyr that did not even have the bulge that in the Zephyr (and in some other cars) replaced the running-board at the bottom of the doors. This decrease in height meant that the height of the hood was much closer to that of the fenders. There was hardly any trim on it at all, making its lines superb. This car is often rated as one of the most beautiful in the world.
The custom car for the boss was duly produced on time, and Edsel had it delivered to Florida for his spring vacation. Interest from well-off friends was high, and Edsel sent a telegram back that he could sell a thousand of them. Lincoln craftsmen immediately began making production examples, both convertible and sedan. They were extensively hand-built; the two dozen 1939 models and 400 1940-built examples even had hand-hammered body panels, since dies for machine-pressing were not constructed until 1941.
todel gali buti, kad pardavejas norejo parodyti butent sio automobilio atsiradimo kilme ir ne toks jis jau neteisus, bet del pavadimo ir man kilo abejoniu...

Zodziu teks palaukti ka amerikonas atsakys ir ka jis paaiskins! Cia kita convertible Zephyr'o nuotrauka kuri siek tiek panasi i mano pateikta misleje.
