1939 Lincoln Zephyr Coupe Built By ‘American Chopper’ Star Heading To Auction

Generally, Barrett-Jackson auctions feature a host of rare, incredibly valuable, highly sought-after, and – of course – celebrity-owned vehicles that folks can bid on. That’s certainly true of the upcoming 2025 Palm Beach, Florida Barrett-Jackson auction, where a very nice 1969 Ford Mustang restomod once owned by country crooner Keith Urban is set to be sold, in fact. That pony car won’t be alone, however, as it’ll be joined by this 1939 Lincoln Zephyr coupe built by Paul Teutul Jr., star of the reality TV series, American Chopper.

We’ll soon see this special 1939 Lincoln Zephyr cross the block at Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach, where it will be sold with no reserve price. The stunning three-window coupe has been updated in a number of ways, starting out the outside, where one will find that model’s iconic sweeping “pull-back” fenders, suicide doors, the original trim and door handles, and arrow-straight bodywork covered in Deep Midnight Blue “Dunkelblau” paint.

Inside the cabin, one will find a gorgeous Cognac leather-covered interior that neatly hides some modern amenities, such as a programmable air-ride control screen – which helps one make adjustments to the car’s RideTech air suspension – as well as a Bluetooth stereo system. Power comes from a rebuilt Lincoln flathead V12 engine wearing a trio of Zephyr-branded carburetors, art deco-style air scoops, and Zephyr-script heads, to boot. That vintage powerplant is mated to a three-speed manual transmission.

“Customs and Resto-Mods by professional builders are in high demand by collectors looking to add distinctive vehicles to their collection,” said Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. “We have a number of professionally built customs, like Paul Teutul Jr.’s artfully built 1939 Lincoln Zephyr. It melds the beauty of vintage American design with a modern powertrain and current technology to create a truly stunning vehicle. The’69 Ford Mustang built for Keith Urban adds celebrity provenance to a remarkable build. Of course, those are just two of the many customs we’re offering this year in Palm Beach, and each one will cross the block with No Reserve.”
