Most &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;classic cars &lt;/span&gt;are rarely seen, but despite their relatively small numbers, plenty of people have spotted a &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Continental&lt;/span&gt; on the street, as well as in movies from the Forties.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0TTKIPjGG50cARNMOlr1ydMJXDM_1mey0wMaHEypGBB0_wFjC2F4F7wwHuSIfM4MAZNyLZSAjtAn0EoryTdU5ab3XN6UXdru8nS2-1mzF9-SIKb3FmpPmWD_gRWrUtPp6ij8zsPmtsFxw/s1600/1941+Lincoln+Continental+4.JPG&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 277px;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0TTKIPjGG50cARNMOlr1ydMJXDM_1mey0wMaHEypGBB0_wFjC2F4F7wwHuSIfM4MAZNyLZSAjtAn0EoryTdU5ab3XN6UXdru8nS2-1mzF9-SIKb3FmpPmWD_gRWrUtPp6ij8zsPmtsFxw/s400/1941+Lincoln+Continental+4.JPG&quot; alt=&quot;Lincoln-Continental Convertible Classic Cars&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469752855329031634&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Picture Of 1941 &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Lincoln Continental &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Convertible Classic Cars&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Continentals&lt;/span&gt; were produced in coupe and convertible form from 1940 to 1948, extending into the start of the postwar era.

Edsel wanted his one-off &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;convertible&lt;/span&gt; to be &quot;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;thoroughly continental&lt;/span&gt;&quot; including the use of an externally mounted spare tire. In the 1950s, when outside spares became popular add-ons for more prosaic makes, they were called &quot;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Continental kits&lt;/span&gt;&quot; borrowing their name from this &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Lincoln&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a title=&quot;A Brief Overview Of Convertible Classic Cars&quot; href=&quot;http://convertible-classic-cars.blogspot.com/2010/05/convertible-sometimes-called-cabriolet.html&quot;&gt;A Brief Overview Of Convertible Classic Cars&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a title=&quot;A Brief Overview Of Convertible Classic Cars Part 2&quot; href=&quot;http://convertible-classic-cars.blogspot.com/2010/05/in-vintage-car-era-convertible-was.html&quot;&gt;A Brief Overview Of Convertible Classic Cars Part 2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://convertible-classic-cars.blogspot.com/feeds/6858652518067668897/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://convertible-classic-cars.blogspot.com/2010/06/lincoln-continental-convertible-classic.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1008905676634532937/posts/default/6858652518067668897'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1008905676634532937/posts/default/6858652518067668897'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://convertible-classic-cars.blogspot.com/2010/06/lincoln-continental-convertible-classic.html' title='Lincoln Continental Convertible Classic Cars Part 1'/><author><name>Goohara</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16556277773041039361</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivoJ7puemNlusoNX8liNMni_fad6HBQSlFCwFTWSrX_DldOCfBxWfHlkRvX30PlL3npczILDYdJoqhA5UMxx7-lS8mV0nTIRmjjr4g06YB3ReVjlCZz8xhU_xUgdYBWA/s220/Classic+car+yellow.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvYAtMZidBkCuWfnwrSFcPqpboUU9lcVv8g9Xsl9A8Q9lc_m7LIeIndpd_XUgDSsGYf_BL5eEJmi8V111NSRxjQrqiNDVaYh_rRd6x_jLzEG4n_Q5yWVMgn8xsKTvA03fwTWe1GXkemjP8/s72-c/1941+Lincoln+Continental+3.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1008905676634532937.post-4693852418801604841</id><published>2010-06-16T13:37:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-16T13:37:00.456-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Cadillac Series 90 Convertible Classic Cars"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Convertible Classic Cars"/><title type='text'>Cadillac Series 90 Convertible Classic Cars Part 2</title><content type='html'>&lt;h1 style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Cadillac  Series 90 Convertible Classic Cars Part 2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj8RNkQ0yZr3OS4s5d6vmVkNhod9WguD5nqK85bMOFPFdDsFgbZQlxF8iH7lNtmn1waQZDVp-EsCzfIOXtgtM5V1mUJtlUpYCqaWaU1LfGNdB8yw21qtbOvHqrAHCFLlTjeirVXIEasllC/s1600/1939+Cadillac+Series+90+3.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 268px;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj8RNkQ0yZr3OS4s5d6vmVkNhod9WguD5nqK85bMOFPFdDsFgbZQlxF8iH7lNtmn1waQZDVp-EsCzfIOXtgtM5V1mUJtlUpYCqaWaU1LfGNdB8yw21qtbOvHqrAHCFLlTjeirVXIEasllC/s400/1939+Cadillac+Series+90+3.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Cadillac Series 90 Convertible Classic Cars&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469747927458924930&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Picture Of 1939 &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Cadillac Series 90  Convertible Classic Cars&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;All that bulk to transport a pair of passengers for a $5440 price at that might have seemed excessive in the late Depression years.

Riding a lengthy 141-inch wheelbase, this &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;convertible coupe&lt;/span&gt; tipped the scales at close to 5000 pounds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicUKZHk9RqhxYTMAfkGX577Vzo26IGWstu5mxrSQIl8i2Vcwc_iiIUmrApaIgkuQFb2e3-kerFZeoVL5X3AIUQShfiF6bhFWdCMLYf96-HRAecbi9BIOqqKWL76v1YV36e7DrS7mG1MJYS/s1600/1939+Cadillac+Series+90+12.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 227px;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicUKZHk9RqhxYTMAfkGX577Vzo26IGWstu5mxrSQIl8i2Vcwc_iiIUmrApaIgkuQFb2e3-kerFZeoVL5X3AIUQShfiF6bhFWdCMLYf96-HRAecbi9BIOqqKWL76v1YV36e7DrS7mG1MJYS/s400/1939+Cadillac+Series+90+12.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Cadillac Series-90 Convertible Classic Cars&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469746637723698322&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Picture Of 1939 &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Cadillac Series 90  Convertible Classic Cars&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;convertible&lt;/span&gt; Model 9067 flaunted its enclosed, sidemounted spare tires and reaching-ahead hood ornament, the latter of which sat atop a burly barrel-shaped grille and still-separate headlamps. But the main attraction lay beneath the hood: a 431- cubic-inch &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;V16 &lt;/span&gt;engine making 185 horsepower.

These, too, would vanish after 1938 and very low production in eight-cylinder form: just 200 of the four-door model and 137 of the two-door.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV9gYtQubrGLT4bDC44jhNzp-UEqkNDdh5Hhw6uULJedHgjU-21YqdAEU5sIoR0KIbOKjMPhcHjZwNiZStjqQOYV1Cqv-_xdOR0jgh_3vZJaW8znST4Hwfhvj6b63fad3qLcoqsapojmya/s1600/1938-oldsmobile-l-38-4.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 188px;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV9gYtQubrGLT4bDC44jhNzp-UEqkNDdh5Hhw6uULJedHgjU-21YqdAEU5sIoR0KIbOKjMPhcHjZwNiZStjqQOYV1Cqv-_xdOR0jgh_3vZJaW8znST4Hwfhvj6b63fad3qLcoqsapojmya/s400/1938-oldsmobile-l-38-4.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Oldsmobile L-38 Convertible Classic-Cars&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469741644366247282&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Picture Of 1938 &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Oldsmobile L-38&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Convertible Classic Cars&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Typical of late-prewar &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;GM cars&lt;/span&gt;, the &#39;38 Olds dashboard was rather &quot;Buck Rogers,&quot; but put most instruments and controls directly ahead of the steering wheel.

Still, all models sported more prominent grilles flanked by new &quot;catwalk&quot; trim in the inner front-fender aprons. Back for a second year was the &quot;Automatic Safety Transmission,&quot; a clutchless manual gearbox presaging fully self-shifting Hydra-Matic in 1940. For &#39;38, AST was newly optional for six-cylinder &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Oldsmobiles&lt;/span&gt; as well as Eights. Unchanged were Lansing&#39;s two L-head inline engines: 95-horsepower 230-cubic-inch six for F-38 models and 110-bhp 257-cid eight for L-38s.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a title=&quot;A Brief Overview Of Convertible Classic Cars&quot;

was the default body style. It was not until 1910 that Cadillac introduced the first closed-body car. A combination of weak engines and public expectation that a car was analogous to a &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;wagon&lt;/span&gt; meant that steel roofs were not in demand until then. Later, &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Convertible Classic Cars&lt;/span&gt; were made less often, possibly due in part to an unfulfilled threat made in the mid-1970s by the United States government to increase rollover safety requirements that may have made auto manufacturers hesitant to manufacture cars that would be unsellable under those new restrictions. By the 1970s  they had almost disappeared and in 1976 the Cadillac Eldorado was advertised as &quot;The last &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;convertible&lt;/span&gt; in America&quot;. During this period of very low convertible production, T-tops became a popular alternative to convertibles, especially in muscle cars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSVDuwsCtSAcPYFjzxqZ3zPEk2kt4fSxwO85GnT4hyK8NhUir0hK47ruVI_HigzKH8IJzVcXl0vauDrwuEUjtV4jfegx6P2GdYOr9Vjkn9i079dBQNfQvqSic2oe0Xin3S6hjyE4mfAHiM/s1600/2005BoxsterS.JPG&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSVDuwsCtSAcPYFjzxqZ3zPEk2kt4fSxwO85GnT4hyK8NhUir0hK47ruVI_HigzKH8IJzVcXl0vauDrwuEUjtV4jfegx6P2GdYOr9Vjkn9i079dBQNfQvqSic2oe0Xin3S6hjyE4mfAHiM/s400/2005BoxsterS.JPG&quot; alt=&quot;Convertible-Classic Cars&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469704973449790754&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Picture Of &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Convertible Classic Cars&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was not until the 1980s and cars like the Chrysler LeBaron and Saab 900 &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;convertibles&lt;/span&gt; that the body style made a comeback. Also in the 1980s, hot hatches such as the Ford Escort &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;XR3i&lt;/span&gt; and Volkswagen Golf GTI were selling a high amount of cabriolets, and in the 1990s, the &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Mazda MX5&lt;/span&gt; again cemented the convertible as the sports car body style of choice.

The collapsible roof section is typically made from flexible canvas  or vinyl, although plastic, aluminium  and steel  have occasionally been used in elaborate folding designs. When the top is made of a rigid material such as steel it is often referred to as a retractable hardtop instead of a &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Convertible Classic Cars&lt;/span&gt;; in Europe this body style is frequently called coupé cabriolet or coupé &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;convertible cars&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unlike a roadster, which may also have a soft folding top, a &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;convertible cars&lt;/span&gt; has roll-up glass windows in the sides, and so the entire vehicle is &quot;convertible&quot; to an enclosed coupé.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Convertibles are usually 2 door models, only a few 4 door models exist e.g. the 1960s Lincoln Continental.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://convertible-classic-cars.blogspot.com/feeds/4631224228810629773/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://convertible-classic-cars.blogspot.com/2010/05/convertible-sometimes-called-cabriolet.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1008905676634532937/posts/default/4631224228810629773'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1008905676634532937/posts/default/4631224228810629773'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://convertible-classic-cars.blogspot.com/2010/05/convertible-sometimes-called-cabriolet.html' title='A Brief Overview Of Convertible Classic Cars'/><author><name>Goohara</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16556277773041039361</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivoJ7puemNlusoNX8liNMni_fad6HBQSlFCwFTWSrX_DldOCfBxWfHlkRvX30PlL3npczILDYdJoqhA5UMxx7-lS8mV0nTIRmjjr4g06YB3ReVjlCZz8xhU_xUgdYBWA/s220/Classic+car+yellow.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgJtEygheOVn8JkOp3V-ikNKppVvqwGPTXW2E537SCkawQf-5FqQzT7JyCa0TAuYU_Jev3ncpoF7cHCHuwZKENrDT4rY823Nhsg3rQZLe7VlA8sNphy27R8YhfDmypHCmzRVsEdDLmBIOO/s72-c/xsaxl.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
