Experience the absolute peak of American custom: 1951 Lincoln Cosmopolitan Lead Sled
Unleash your inner car enthusiast with this one-of-a-kind 1951 Lincoln Cosmopolitan lead sled, masterfully built by Cecil Proffit and powered by a robust 454 cubic inch GM V8. Finished in an eye-catching Deep Black Cherry Metallic, this sleek beauty boasts both power and style, offering a unique blend of vintage charm and modern performance upgrades.
History:
Originally designed as a luxury car, the Lincoln Cosmopolitan was a symbol of class and sophistication in the early '50s. This particular example, however, has been completely transformed into a jaw-dropping lead sled that commands attention on the road. With extensive custom bodywork and performance enhancements, it stands as a testament to the timeless appeal of classic American car culture.
The Build:
This lead sled has undergone significant custom work to achieve its head-turning look. The top has been chopped, the headlights and taillights have been frenched, and the rear doors are hinged backward for that classic suicide-door style. Other notable modifications include shaved badges and door handles, stretched quarter panels, simulated lake pipes, and a Continental kit. To complete the look, 15" steel wheels with full covers are wrapped in fresh Auburn Deluxe whitewall tires. The lowered stance, combined with rear air shocks, ensures this sled rides as smooth as it looks.
Engine & Performance:
Under the hood lies a powerhouse 454ci GM V8 engine, paired with a Holley carburetor and a custom air filter housing. Power is effortlessly transferred to the rear wheels via a TH400 three-speed automatic transmission, providing a seamless and enjoyable driving experience. A custom Karnage Performance exhaust system not only improves performance but delivers an unmistakable rumble that’s sure to turn heads. Recent service includes a new starter and headlight switch, ensuring the car is ready to hit the road.
Interior:
Step inside, and you'll find a beautifully appointed cabin upholstered in gray cloth, with matching door panels, headliner, and carpeting. The vintage aesthetic is complemented by modern conveniences, such as air conditioning, a cabin heater, and a Pioneer CD player, blending the best of both worlds. The electric door poppers add a sleek, modern touch, while the rear-hinged doors provide a nod to classic luxury. This car is built for both comfort and style, making it perfect for cruising or showing off at your next car meet.
