1931 Lincoln Model K Convertible Victoria

The Waterhouse Company of Webster, Massachusetts was in business from 1928 through 1932. This Convertible Victoria is one of just four 1931 Lincoln Model K vehicles clothed by Waterhouse as a Convertible Victoria. It is believed that just two examples exist in modern times. This car was given an extensive restoration in 1968 by Hibernia Auto Restorations, LLC. It has won national 1st place awards at Classic Car Club and Antique Automobile Club of America Meets, in addition to winning the honorary Judges Award at the Palo Alto Concours in 2000.

The custom Waterhouse features found on this car include the special door moldings and extended cowl as well as the exceptionally low, raked windshield.

The car has been featured in a comprehensive article on the Waterhouse firm and its coach building accomplishments in Automobile Quarterly.

In 1998, the car joined the Otis Chandler collection. It remained there until it was auctioned off in 2006.

In 2012, the car was offered for sale at the Pebble Beach auction presented by Gooding & Company. The car was estimated to sell for $275,000 - $375,000. Unfortunately, a buyer willing to satisfy the car's reserve was not found and it would leave the auction unsold.
