Artifact Overview

With World War II moving toward a close, Lincoln designers began work on new civilian models. It was anticipated that the Lincoln Zephyr would return, so designers set about refreshing the 1942 model. However, the Zephyr name was dropped before the 1946 models -- the company's first postwar cars -- debuted.
