Description:
""Just as it had been Edsel's [Edsel Ford] idea to buy Lincoln to give the company an elegant car to match GM's Cadillac, so in the midthirties, as Ford's competitive position continued to slip, he tried to get a part of the middle-priced market through the Zephyr. The Zephyr began as the Briggs Manufacturing Company ""dream car."" which Edsel saw in prototype at the 1933 automobile show. He was excited by it, having wanted for some time a car in price and quality between the Ford and the Lincoln. He bought the rights from Briggs and then brought in Eugene T. Gregorie, a former boat designer, to carry out his vision of a sleek auto for the middle-class buyer."" - “The Fords: An American Epic” by Peter Collier and David Horowitz, p. 158-159 - illustration #40 - 1987 Apparently design direction worked both ways.

He stove up three within two weeks. They all had this streamlined look."" - Interview with Ralph Stanley October 20, 2008 A photograph of the Lincoln Zephyr that is supremely evocative of the design era that influenced Bink Sargent appears in “Photographs from the Collection of the Gilman Paper Company,” curated by Pierre Apraxine, with plates by Richard Benson, and notes to the plates by Lee Marks. 480 pp. 199 plates and a frontispiece.
