Artifact Overview

For several decades, the White House leased limousines from Ford Motor Company for presidential use. When cars became too dated in appointments and appearance, they were returned to Ford. The automaker presented four of these limos to The Henry Ford -- including the 1961 Lincoln Continental limousine, seen here in Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation in 2007.
