Background

The Lincoln EL-Series is a full-size luxury car that was marketed and sold by Lincoln from 1949 to 1951. Replacing the H-Series Lincoln, the postwar model line was the first complete redesign of the Lincoln sedan line since 1936. In line with its predecessor, the EL-Series Lincoln carried only the Lincoln nameplate, using no model name. The Lincoln was positioned below the Cosmopolitan within the Lincoln model range.
