In 1949, Lincoln introduced its first postwar bodies including the larger "senior" Lincoln Cosmopolitan using an exclusive body and wheelbase. The Lincoln Cosmopolitan was powered by a 337 cubic-inch Ford Flathead V8, coupled to GM Hydramatic transmissions until 1955.
The Lincolns were the result of a last-minute revision to Fords original postwar plans for small (Ford), medium (Ford-based Mercury) and large (Lincoln) car variants. When it was decided that the 1949 Ford would be an entirely new, smaller vehicle the originally planned Ford would become the new Mercury, the somewhat longer originally planned Mercury would become the "junior" Lincoln and the originally planned Lincoln would become this "senior" Lincoln Cosmopolitan.
