1932 Lincoln Model KB Double Cowl Sport Phaeton

The K-Series is a line of premium luxury vehicles produced by Lincoln from 1930 to 1940. The original K-Series models feature a 385 cubic inch V8 engine. Customers were given the choice of ordering a fully custom coachwork body.

The Lincoln K-Series was split in 1932 into two lines, the V8 carryover Model KA and the new V12-powered Model KB. The KB features the marque's new L-head 447.9 cubic-inch V12 that produces 150 horsepower.

For 1932, the KB series featured a new grille with a slimmer surround, vent doors rather than vertical louvers on the sides of the hood, a parking light on top of each front fender, and 18-inch wire wheels.

The Lincoln V-12 competed directly with the cross town rival Cadillac V-12 that was introduced earlier in 1930. It would be among a select group of 1930's cars with large multi-cylinder engines, including those manufactured by Franklin, Hispano-Suiza, Packard, Rolls-Royce and Marmon.

This KB Dual Cowl Phaeton with body by Murphy was acquired by the current owner in 1995. It was the Murphy display car that was shown at the Los Angeles Auto Show when new. Factory records indicate that it was originally shipped to a Long Beach, California distributor and sold in September of 1932. In 1948 it was sold from a used car lot in Burbank that was known for selling classics.

The 2017 Concours d'Elegance of America at St. Johns was the first showing of this car in over twenty years.
