Lean, Racy and Designed for Modern Living 1952 Lincoln Capri Hardtop Coupe Lincoln Becomes a Hot Car It was not the total redesign that enabled Lincoln in 1952 to remake its image as a hot car. Yes, it was no longer a big metal slab as the chrome side spears and new bumpers gave it a more modern look. It was their performance at the 1952 Carrera Panamerica Road Race that opened young men's eyes. Lincoln dominated its class taking the first five places. With its new OHV V-8 providing 160hp. It was now a hot rod. In a few years, the song lyrics, “Son, you're going to drive me to drinkin' if you don't stop racing that hot rod Lincoln” we're being echoed by fathers across America.
