History of LEHMANN-PETERSON Limousines: Robert 'Pete' Peterson and George 'Skip' Lehmann founded Lehmann-Peterson in 1963. Mr. Peterson had an automobile racing history serving as chief mechanic and building racers for use at Indianapolis. Lehmann had received a large inheritance at the age of 21 from his father who died in Boston's Coconut Grove Night Club fire. The pair established a shop in a Chicago garage on Harlem Avenue. Using a standard 1963 Lincoln, they cut it in half and added a 34-inch stretch. They also added a plague that reads 'Executive Limousine by Lehmann-Peterson.' Only one example was ever created by Lehmann-Peterson in their Chicago garage. When production began, they moved to a shop at 2710 North Sawyer Avenue and one on Amitage Street.
History of This LEHMANN-PETERSON Limousine:
1966 Lincoln Continental Executive Limousine by Lehmann-Peterson Coach Builders with Original 43,325 miles (accurate) and is being sold with a transferable NY state registration and bill of sale. One of 159 produced in 1966 which was originally sold from a dealership in Amarillo, Texas. In 2005 the limo received the following work: voltage regulator, air conditioning repair with new compressor, receiver dryer, electric cooling fan, turn signal switch, upper steering column bearing and rubber gasket, transmission linkage and o-ring, master cylinder was converted to dual master brake cylinder, fuel pump and fuel push rod and a Sony audio stereo with the 6-CD changer in trunk area. The same year the rear area was restored with new upholstery of both facing benches, carpeting and beverage compartment with flute holders. After sitting for several years this month we gave the Limo a tune up with plugs, wires, points, rotor, rebuilt carb, battery, new tires and a nice paint job. Motor runs good and idles nice, Transmission shifts smooth, brakes stop good and power steering is easy to turn. All the glass in in great condition with no chips or scratches. Interior is clean and with no rips or tears in the upholstery and foam is good. The back part of the headliner has some water spots from the original wood glass retainer. This was replaced with a welded in metal piece. The exterior was painted last month with vary minimal rust repair (no rust throughs). The chrome is all in excellent condition and complete with no dents. I do have the Lehmann-Peterson badges. The door locks and windows need some attention as some do not function. I have had many 1960’s Lincolns and the limo are the rare and the most fun. Car is being sold to fund a new venture in life otherwise it would be kept as there are only a few still on the road. Overall this is an amazing car that demands attention and you will be a Rock Star with the only one around. Car is 20 minutes from Salt Lake City, Utah International Airport and can be viewed with appointment. A seroius buyer may call anytime (801- 979 - 4670).
Thank you for viewing and have a Happy and Prosperious New Year! |

Farley says Lincoln learnings in China could influence brand in US
Tue, 14 May 2013Automotive News reports Lincoln is looking to Chinese luxury shoppers for customer service ideas. Those notions may eventually make their way back to the US in the form of new dealership training. Jim Farley, the executive vice president of global marketing for Ford, tells Automotive News, "In many ways, China will be a listening post for Lincoln in the United States. Soon China will be the largest luxury market in the world." Farley also said that in China, the Lincoln brand is currently where Lexus was when the Japanese brand first landed in the US.
Lincoln is slated to open its first Chinese dealerships in 2014. The brand is largely unknown in Asia, and Lincoln representatives have been visiting other luxury dealers in China for an idea of what buyers there expect. Lincoln has also studied non-automotive luxury shopping, paying special attention to high-end retail branding.
Of course, this whole song and dance feels awfully familiar. Lincoln has focused heavily on remaking the brand and recrafting its marketing here in the States, thus far without sufficient product to back the play. Lincoln is already late to the China game, and without the necessary products to lure buyers away from established bodies like Buick and Cadillac, Lincoln may be doomed to repeat its fate here in the US.
Lincoln debuts MKC ads starring Matthew McConaughey
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Lincoln is making the decisive commitment that it wants to improve its brand perception going forward. It can't be cheap to hire A-list talent like Academy Award-winning actor Matthew McConaughey and director Nicolas Winding Refn, best known for Drive, for its new ad campaign for the 2015 MKC crossover, but the company is showing that it's serious about the new vehicle and its future. The first three of these five commercials are just hitting YouTube, and they begin airing on television on September 6.
The Live in Your Moment campaign is all about Lincoln trying to sell not just the MKC to customers but also explain the brand's philosophy. It's one of the oldest luxury automakers around, but hasn't exactly had a glorious history, especially recently. Based on these first ads, we can see that there's a definite focus on philosophizing rather than focusing on the crossover. At times, McConaughey seems just a mustache and a mangled beer can away from reprising his role from True Detective.
The first ad (above) is simply titled Intro and sets the mood and concept for the whole campaign. Bull has McConaughey talking to a longhorn in the middle of a road, and I Just Like It has him explaining his affinity for the brand. Lincoln's full release is available below, and you can view the other ads by flipping through the playlist in the video player above.
McConaughey's bizarre new Continental ad is perfect parody material
Tue, Dec 20 2016So let's say you're running a car company and have a luxurious new flagship sedan and need to advertise it. What do you do? Did you answer with "film a commercial with a barely coherent Hollywood actor standing in a pond?" If so, perhaps you work for Lincoln, which brought back Matthew McConaughey to do another bizarre car ad. It starts with McConaughey and a Continental standing on a body of water. He starts talking about staring (or not staring) at the Conti, and then about sitting in the back seat (or not). The ad then cuts to McConaughey in the back who replies to the McConaughey in the front seat. Presumably, there are two McConaugheys at this point, and the front seat one just laughs in a slightly unsettling manner. He then makes a clicking noise, closes the center console and drives away. You can't make this stuff up. It's thoroughly strange, but we can't say we're entirely surprised. When Lincoln first launched some bizarre ads with McConaughey muttering sweet nothings about the MKC, the company got loads of attention. Admittedly a lot of that attention was to make fun of it, but you know the old saying that there's no such thing as bad press. Lincoln even brought him back for an encore in ads for the MKX and MKZ. In truth, we're also glad to see another bizarre Lincoln ad, mostly because we're hoping for another round of great parodies like the classic Jim Carrey spoof that aired on Saturday Night Live. Check out the ad above to see the strangeness. Related Video:
