The 'Police Flyer' was offered by the Lincoln Motor Company and came equipped to suit the needs of its blue-uniformed buyers. It came with available options that were not yet offered to the general public, the most important being the addition of four-wheel brakes - two years before becoming available to private customers.
It is believed that this example was built on April 13th of 1925. It is believed to be one of only 15 of the Style 124C bodies with just three of those built on the 1925 chassis.
It is believed that this vehicle may have been originally supplied to the City of New York. One of its early owners was Harold K. Williams, of South Ashburnham, Massachusetts, from whose estate it was acquired by Robert P. King, of Gardner, Massachusetts, in 1966. In the eighties, it was acquired by the father of the current owner.
In the mid-1980s, the car received new paint and a new top. It is believed that the preserved interior is original. The body has never been removed from the frame, and the engine, transmission, sheet metal, and wood framing are all original. It has its original tonneau cover and side curtains.
