1928 Lincoln Model L Sport Phaeton

  • Coachwork by Locke
  • Chassis Number: 48264
This Model L Sport Phaeton has coachwork by Locke & Company. Locke & Company primarily provided open bodies, including roadster and phaetons. This example is equipped with aluminum coachwork. The car was acquired in 1972 by Mr. Bob Shuler while stationed in Argentina with the Foreign Service. Little is known of its early history, though it is believed to have been purchased new by an Argentine military officer for approximately $5,000.

Mr. Shuler commenced a body-off, nut-and-bolt restoration that spanned 3 decades.

In 2010, this Model L was offered for sale at the Vintage Motor Cars of Hershey auction presented by RM Auctions. The car was estimated to sell for $60,000 - $80,000. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $68,750 including buyer's premium.
