{"product_id":"lincoln-futura-turquoise-metallic-1-18","title":"Lincoln Futura, Turquoise Metallic","description":"\u003cp\u003eFew concept cars ever escaped the show stand with as much theatre as the Lincoln Futura. Hand-built by Ghia in Turin in 1955 at a reported cost approaching a quarter-million dollars, it was Lincoln's rolling laboratory: a double-bubble clear canopy, hooded headlamp pods set into outward-canted fins, and those exaggerated rear fins trailing into pointed taillight clusters that defined the jet-age optimism of mid-fifties Detroit. The deep grille mouth and the broad chrome bumper-and-taillamp assembly at the rear give it a sense of motion even at rest. It is best remembered, of course, for its second life (repainted black, it became the original Batmobile), but in this form it stands as a pure expression of what designers imagined the future would look like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe model is finished in the Futura's original turquoise-blue metallic, with chrome trim, whitewall tyres and the twin Plexiglas bubbles picked out cleanly over a tan interior. It is built at 1:18 and sits on a fabric-topped presentation base with a marque plaque, a faithful record of one of the era's most extravagant dream cars.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Automotive House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67684123377877,"sku":"TAH-12987","price":3300.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/8519\/1637\/files\/TAH-12987-02_e1309068-1b7e-4a98-9e5b-163737173912.jpg?v=1791403939","url":"https:\/\/www.automotivehouse.com\/products\/lincoln-futura-turquoise-metallic-1-18","provider":"The Automotive House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
