What an incredible car. The Cosmopolitan has to be one of the most beautiful and amazing cars Lincoln ever built. From every angle this is a real gem.

I often wonder what would have come from Ford if Edsel hadn't died so young.

I would walk to my junior high school, which was Leecon junior high school in Hollywood California and near Bronson and fountain my friend lived who I would visit and he had a 48 Lincoln cosmopolitan his dad did and I really knew nothing about cars, but I was impressed by its beauty and it was parked under a tree and their little Hollywood bungalow driveway. Well after a few years, I came to visit him and it was gone, and I asked him what he dad did and he sold it and I was so upset and I never was about most cars impressed. I never got to ride it, but I believe it was the same color in a pretty much exact car. By the way many years later I continued to work in the area and I would find older cars in parking lots in garages but nothing quite like that.

These magnificent "heavy metal" Lincoln is so underappreciated. I always found them to be the ultimate in "presence" in it's truly massive size and it's beautiful proportions. The wheelbase is a good indication of the lofty status that this vehicle held in the FoMoCo lineup. Magnificent car....absolutely stunning!
