- 05:1405:14, 23 March 2024 diff hist −44 m Elwood Engel Clearing up confusion over the design process for the 1961 Lincoln Continental. The correct story: There was a competition between the Ford and Lincoln-Mercury styling teams to design the 1961 Ford Thunderbird. The Ford entry won, but the Lincoln-Mercury general manager chose the Lincoln-Mercury team's entry (led by Engel) as the basis for the 1961 Lincoln Continental. The Lincoln-Mercury styling team stretched their entry, added rear doors, and it became the 1961 Lincoln Continental. Tag: Visual edit
