Default Speaking of Lincoln flatheads.......

My '31 K 202B phaeton is finally coming together thanks to the efforts of David Heinrichs; it's destined to be part of the permanent collection of the Lincoln Motor Car Foundation Museum at the Gilmore in Hickory Corners, MI.

Looks like a piece of jewelry sitting there!! Can't wait to see the car all back together. Hopefully It will be by the time I plan my trip up to see the museum and "other" facilities" in the area??




Thanks for sharing David, hope all is well?

Polished heads and crankcase, porcelain-coated manifolds, and nickel plating everywhere throughout the engine compartment as when new. There was a reason why you could buy ten new Model As for the price of one '31 K.

Automobiles and a level of skill most of us mere mortals can view only from a distance.

There’s a 1930 Lincoln roadster with this engine in the McLeods Farm museum in McBee South Carolina that I have drooled over many times.

I love the dichotomy between this engine and the 32 Ford unit. You can tell the Lincoln was built as much to look at as it was to power a big car. The 32 Ford V8 motor was neither.

Beautiful looking engine and it appears the rest of the car will be stunning. I have to ask, what bolts on in front of the carburetor?
