One of only five known surviving examples, this Lincoln Model K is a beautiful example of Raymond Dietrich’s “semi-custom” convertible sedan, one of the most desirable bodies on this illustrious and finely engineered chassis, featuring the newly lengthened 145-in. wheelbase and an updated, redesigned Lincoln V-8. As many of the survivors of this style are held in prominent private collections, the opportunity to acquire one publicly is rare and should be noted.
Recent recipient of a concours-quality full restoration to authentic and original condition, the car features superb chrome work by a master plater, German leather upholstery, and a Haartz cloth top, as well as a stainless steel exhaust, and presents absolutely beautifully in every regard. It has been shown only three times, including a National First Prize in Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) judging, and two 1st place awards at the Ault Park Concours d’Elegance in Cincinnati. Obviously numerous further judging and award opportunities await an eager new owner.
