1932 Lincoln Model KA Coupe

  • Chassis Number: 71252
  • Engine Number: 71252
Lincoln was founded in 1920 by Henry Leland and the cars that bore its name quickly gained a reputation for outstanding quality and exceptionally well engineered. Two years after the introduction of the first model, the company was sold to the Ford Motor Company and positioned for the upscale market. The deal had been championed by Henry Ford's son Edsel.

In 1932, Lincoln introduced the Model KA and fitted them with V8 engines. They were offered in seven different standard body styles and priced lower than previous K models.

This example is a 2/4P Coupe and one of the finest still left in existence. It is all original and never been given a restoration. It is painted in two-tone beige and olive brown paintwork in the interior. The engine is the same one that was installed in the vehicle at the factory.

In 2008 this 1932 Lincoln Model KA V8 Coupe was brought to RM Auctions 'Vintage Motor Cars of Meadow Brook' where it was estimated to sell for $80,000-$110,000. As bidding came to a close, the lot would fail to find a buyer willing to satisfy the vehicles reserve. A high bid of $75,000 was close, yet not enough.
