1938 Lincoln Model K Victoria Convertible DHC by Brunn. For Sale
This superb example was subject to a 5 year, €250, 000. 00 nut & bolt restoration, 5 years ago, and has been stored in an impressive private collection since, with minimal use. It surely is the best example currently available.
The car remains in near concours condition, and has just been lightly recomissioned for road use . There are numerous photographs that I can send of the car, and some of the restoration work .
The car is currently registered on Spanish Historic plates, but is now available to view with me , near London.
It can be re-registered on UK plates if desired .
We even had the priviledge of driving the old lady today. With the lovely V12, she really purrs along with grace and style.
Specification as follows:
Body style 408, Chassis No. K-9304
150 bhp, 414 cu. in. L-head V-12 engine, three-speed manual transmission, solid front axle with semi-elliptic leaf springs, live rear axle with semi-elliptic leaf springs, and four-wheel power assisted drum brakes. Wheelbase: 136 in.
One of eight produced in 1938
Of all the coachbuilders to body Lincoln chassis, none is so closely associated with the name than Brunn & Company, of Buffalo, New York. Lincoln President Edsel Ford was a long-time Brunn customer in good standing, resulting in the supply of “semi-custom” bodies in small lots to Lincoln, to be mated in Detroit to Lincoln chassis and finished to individual customer specification. The firm eventually became Lincoln’s specialist in town cars and convertibles, producing a wide line of soft-top broughams, cabriolets, victorias, and dual cowl phaetons. Among the most versatile of America’s coachbuilders, they were capable of both conservative and flamboyant design, as well as examples of everything in between.
Among Brunn’s contributions in the later half of the 1930s was the convertible victoria, a two-door, five-passenger convertible with blind rear quarters. This design has originally been conceived by Massachusetts coachbuilder Waterhouse, and after that firm’s shuttering in 1932, Brunn acquired the design rights and continued to produce their most famous creation. Over time, they made the convertible victoria their own, integrating retractable rear quarter windows for better vision.
This design appeared for 1938 on the “short” 136-inch wheelbase Lincoln Model K chassis, a catalogued “semi-custom,” of which only eight were produced. With long fenders that accentuated flowing, clean body lines, it was a perfect example of modern, late-1930s design, and it showed how well the original convertible victoria idea had translated through the years.
I am happy to arrange viewings or inspections, and can assist with onward transportation , if required.
