Lincoln touted this engine to propel the car at speeds above 100 mph. This made the Lincoln V12 one of the most powerful power plants of it’s time.
This Lincoln has a Willoughby body that was hand made to order. The Willoughby craftmanship is unsurpassed by no one in its time. This car has amenities that were only for the elite. Such amenities include microphone to speak with driver, switched interior lighting, cigarette station with lighter, makeup station, buzzer for driver, retractable foot rest, shaded sun visors, dual horn, heater, retractable shades on all rear windows, fold down jump seats with nickel plated arm rest, thermostat lurers on engine cover, power/mechanical brakes, dual side mount spare tires, Dual side mirrors, glass divider windows, leather front seat, cloth rear seats, and all real wood trim throughout.
The 1932 Lincoln is a very stately car with 145 in wheelbase, 5,905 LBS and 60 in wide. When in front of this car its 6-foot-long hood is impressive alone. There were 56 Willoughby limos made and was Lincolns flag ship limo with a new price of $5,905.00. $1,000.00 more that the Lebaron. Surpassing the average car cost in 1932 ($610.00) by almost 10 times.
This car was bought by a man in the New York area in the 1970’s. The car was complete and in driving condition. In the early 2000’s he decided to have the car completely restored, after spending in excess of $250,000.00 (not including the original cost of the car) his car was complete, EVERYTHING was rebuilt. It was a national show winner shortly after the restore, every electrical connection, wire, switch, trim, rubber seals, door bumper, everything was restored to original specs.
This car is the real deal. Pictures do not do it justice. I would say it is a high 9 out of 10 and to get it to a 10 would not take much work. All the chrome on this car is spotless/paint is near flawless. The vinyl top is flawless. The original makeup and cigarette case are in the car with the original perfume jars.
The drive train is perfect to drive and runs like a top. We have only drove it on nice days and the car has never seen rain. I have owned this car since May 2017, and it has been a pleasure. I am new selling it to move on to other hobbies. I have looked at many cars and have not seen one with the detail this car has. I do have a light cover for the car and carpet covers as well.
There will not be any disappointments. $97,000.00
