This 1930 Lincoln Sport Phaeton was purchased new by an individual living in New York, who would keep the car until 1956. It then passed through several owners before coming into the Harrah Collection in 1977. Dr. Atwood purchased it from the Harrah's dispersal auction in September of 1984. It has been driven just 62 miles since that time.
The paint was probably re-applied in the 1950s. It shows some chips and pits. The car is straight and all the doors close well, but it is original and not without its flaws.
There were a mere 90 examples of these factory-built dual cowl phaetons built in 1930. Power is from the 384.8 cubic-inch L-head V-8 engine and there is a three-speed manual transmission.
In 2009, this DC Sport Phaeton was offered for sale at the Automobiles of Arizona auction presented by RM Auctions. It was estimated to sell for $80,000 - $110,000 and offered without reserve. The lot was sold for the sum of $63,250 including buyer's premium. | |
