January in the Los Angeles District The previous sales high was October of 1955 when 443 Lincolns were sold The new record bettered that of December of 1960 by 23 per cent an indication of the growing public acceptance of the new luxury car Allen said The 1961 Lincoln Continental has been well received by the public and the press- It has already received an important award for engineering
