This Unfinished Lincoln

Sep 30, 2023

The limo with hypercar looks is based on a Lincoln Town Car and is in desperate need for a paintjob and an interior overhaul

If you are in the market for a unique-looking limo and enjoy working on your cars, then this stretched Bugatti Veyron replica is the right one for you. The project car, which is based on a humble Lincoln, needs a lot of work, but at least it is in running condition and has a fiberglass bodykit looking like it came out of the Molsheim factory.

The build started off with a 2001 Lincoln Town Car that was fully stripped in order to allow for the hypercar conversion. The new fiberglass body is based on a steel tube frame and replicates the lines of the Veyron, especially in the front end and despite the presence of the good-old Ford V8 engine under the bonnet. In fact, the bumper and aftermarket headlights try to replicate the Bugatti Veyron SS.

The wheelbase is way longer than your average Bugatti and the side intakes are completely blocked, but the exotic looks are retained thanks to the 20-inch alloy wheels, the Lambo-style front doors, and the large gullwing door on the curbside. At the back, the tailgate is styled after the Bugatti Veyron's active rear wing / air brake.

The interior needs a lot more work than the exterior, as the leather seats of the original Town Car are not even bolted on the floor but the dual air-conditioning still works. According to the seller, the project car has been sitting in this unfinished condition for three years, but the engine started just fine after getting a new battery and fresh fuel.

The replica is listed on eBay for $25k which according to the seller is "way less" than the cost of its parts. More specifically, the donor car allegedly cost $9k, with another $10k spent on the fiberglass bodykit, $5k on the Lambo doors, $4k for the gullwing door, $4k for the hood and trunk, and $2k for the windshield among other expenses and without counting labor. Still, the new owner must be willing to invest more money and time in order for the limo to be finished and ready for service.

While no one would be crazy enough to sacrifice a real Bugatti in order to make a limo, a replica can be quite convincing if the bodykit is well-proportioned and the detailing is done right. This is proven by a photo of another black-painted car that is included in the listing and shows how the project could look if finished.
