Description

An exceedingly rare example of Lincoln Motor Company's first automobile, the Model L, is a treasure trove for any classic car collector to find.

Introduced in 1920, it became the involuntary bridge between Lincoln and its purchase by the Ford Motor Company in 1922. L-series vehicles were made in Detroit, Michigan.

Dressed in black, this car's paint and red trim are in overall very good order on this elegant survivor showing its age in some areas showing cracks. The car's coachwork remains straight and solid, the engine bay is extremely tidy, the cargo area looks great, has a working cargo light and the chrome bumpers fit tightly to the body. This Model L has dual cowl lights and dual foglights along with a leaping Greyhound hood ornament. There are also dual horns and dual side-mounted spare tires with sideview mirrors mounted atop the tires. Up front is a windshield sun visor while out back is a folding luggage rack. There is a single multi-light in back with a brake/tail light, an amber turn signal and a white reverse light mounted on the driver's side.

This car rolls on Lester six-ply wide whitewall tires, size 7.00-20, at every corner and including both side-mounted spares in the running boards. Each tire is mounted to a Rudge-Whitworth center-lock wire wheel that is body-colored. The tires are in good, original order while the wheels look great for their age.

Under the Lincoln's long hood is a 385 CID, 60-degree Fork and Blade V-8 engine equipped with a Stromberg updraft carburetor. The fork and blade V-8 used a novel approach for its piston connecting rods, which meant two connecting rods shared one bearing on the crankshaft, which allowed for a short crankshaft and a smaller overall engine size. The cylinders in both banks are also not offset from each other. Backing this motor is a three-speed slide-design manual transmission and a 4.58:1 rear end.

Inside, the car's four-spoke, wooden steering wheel is an objet d'art all by itself, exemplifying the craftsmanship available at that time and what customers were willing to pay for it. The seats are upholstered in beige cloth that contrasts well with the exterior color. There are side and rear window shades to block sunlight when wanted and wall-mounted courtesy lights. The inner door panels are upholstered similarly and feature cranks to roll down the side window (the driver's side door features a sculpted armrest). There's even a lockable storage area next to the rear seat for valuables. An oval window in the hand-turned metal dashboard allows one to see a full array of Waltham gauges speedometer, odometer, trip odometer, fuel gauge, oil pressure, coolant temperature, amps and a Seth Thomas clock. Speedo/odo and fuel gauge are inop.

Changes in 1929 brought safety glass and dual windshield wipers to Lincoln models.

Competition to this Lincoln in 1929 included Cadillac's Type 61, Mercedes-Benz's 630, Packard's Twin Six, Renault's Type MC and Rolls-Royce's Phantom I.

If you collect classic pre-World War II cars, if you're a Lincoln fan or if you simply appreciate an example of beautiful, rolling coachwork from the Roaring 20s, come to MotoeXotica Classic Cars in person to view and appreciate this '29 Lincoln.

VIN: 59072
