Seller's comments about 1936' Lincoln Model K
BEING SOLD WITH TITLE Built- But 1 of 2 Left. The Other is Owned by Jay Leno This Lincoln was Originally Built for the Ringling Brothers Beige/Tan Exterior with Brown Leather Interior Factory V12 Engine 3 Speed Manual Transmission RWD Showing 39,646 Miles Leather Roof- Front Half is Removable Glass Windows Separates Driver from Passengers Fold Out Rear Seats Henry Ford was personal friends with Herman Brunn who was a well known coach builder of the time that built several personal automobiles for Mr. Ford. A Brunn Coach package was available at most Lincoln dealerships but had a hefty price tag. The coach cost Lincoln $10,000 to build during the 30s which would be equivalent to a $200,000+ build today! This price tag was exceptionally large during the economic time of the 30s, only the highest caliber buyer could afford such an iconic car. There were only 10 Cabriolet Lincoln Brunn Town Cars built in 1936 and only 2 of those have survived throughout the years, this particular example is serial number 2. The only other owner being Jay Leno makes this piece of history an iconic addition to any collection. This particular Lincoln has an astonishing background and was originally sold to Richard Ringling, the son of Alf T. Ringling of the famous Ringling Brothers Circus. Included with the car is a letter from Herman Brunn and Lincolns archives proving the authenticity of the vehicle. The factory K V12 remains as the powerplant in this elegant beast and she runs as quiet and smooth as the day it rolled off of the assembly line. Both the paint and interior are in impeccable condition and the Lincoln shows exceptionally well with the beautiful craftsmanship from Mr Brunn. The perfect time capsule that is appropriate for the finest collections is now available for purchase!
