Meet Annie

Annie is my 1956 Lincoln Premiere 4 Door Sedan. I found her on Craigslist of all places for a price that made me forget all logic. But the story begins on a business trip and a bored car enthusiast in the Denver Airport picking up a copy of Hemmings Classic Motor News to pass the time with a feature article on Lincoln Premieres. Within weeks I was dealing with a gentleman who had posted the ad for her on craigslist and by New Years Eve 2011/2012, She was being rolled into my garage. Annie has been passed around a little and in storage for at least the last 20 years and has never been restored. This blog is my journal of bringing Annie back to life for everyone's enjoyment.

The pic below is of her being rolled out of storage in Atlanta. I have no idea how long she was there and her title and actual production/first date of sale is 12/22/1955. I purchased her on 12/22/2011.
