This Lincoln Model K Dietrich Convertible Sedan is powered by a 384 cubic-inch V8 engine and rests on a 145-inch wheelbase. The 1931 Lincolns were among the largest and most luxurious cars of the era. Only 3,600 were built, and many had custom coachwork. Only 65 with this custom Dietrich body were built, and only seven survive today. Its original price was $6,800, which is equivalent to about $106,000 in modern times. This car has only 63,000 original miles and has its original paint, upholstery, chrome and running gear. Only the top and carpets have been replaced.
The current owners first saw this car at the Antique Automobile Club of America's annual Sprint Meet in Granville, Ohio in 1957, when they were returning from their honeymoon. At that time it had only 27,000 miles. They kept track of the car through three subsequent collector car owners and were finally able to buy it in 1999 when it had 52,000 miles.
