MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to present this extremely rare one-of-a-kind 1951 Lincoln Lido custom coupe. Originating from the “King of Kustoms” Mr. George Barris himself complete with a signed Certificate of Authenticity. This Lincoln was sold new in San Fransisco and was owned by the original owner until the mid 1970's when George Barris purchased the Lincoln and then sold it to his lead painter (Roy “Tubs” Johnson) of “Barris Kustom Industries”. Roy was an automotive painter from Detroit Michigan who began working with George Barris and the early 1960's. Roy was one of the original five men crew who helped George build the first 1966 Batmobile and was in charge of the painting aspects of the Batmobile project. Roy stayed working with George all the way until his death in 1990. he was known for extremely high quality paint jobs that could be performed in a very short amount of time. Together George and Roy customized this rare Lincoln Lido coupe and the previous owner claims that Von Dutch stopped by Barris Kustom's and added the final pin stripping to the Lincoln! The Lincoln was also officially used by Barris in the Barris/Kenwood National Tour exhibitions.
