Dramatic and authentic Dietrich custom body styling!

.

Dramatic profile!

This is an authentic Dietrich custom body Lincoln, one of only a handful in existence. It shows the Dietrich brilliance in styling, with a low accent line and rakish windshield and convertible top. The visual effect continues with a rearmounted spare, which accents the fender line and makes the car look lower still. Extensive use of aluminum for the body was very advanced for the time, and the design stands the test of time. The Dietrich seat tag and cowl tags are present, and overall it’s an authentic, real example of this rare body style. 1927 was a year of technical improvement for the Lincoln “L” – most importantly the addition of front brakes, which this car has! The wheels are 21” demountable rims on wood “artillery” wheels. It has the L-head Lincoln V-8, which has had some recent repair and service by a Lincoln expert. The original updraft carburetor and accessories are included, but the car runs on a downdraft Holley 2 barrel now. The top mechanism is complete and works, the doors open and close nicely, and the windows operate properly. Overall this is a good, mostly complete and solid car. It could be improved and enjoyed, or given a more thorough restoration. It has the look of a car that had some restoration done in the early days of the hobby, and would be a worthy candidate for further restoration and re-commissioning, which would be necessary to bring it to full operability. I note the rear spare demountable rim is absent, the car will need to be re-wired – it starts & runs, but lights, charging, etc are not functional. The rumble seat lid was done in fiberglass, and the rumble seat cushions are missing. The tires are very old and should be replaced. The California title is Clean, and the ’27 Lincoln Dietrich is ready for it’s new owner!

The rear spare carrier apparatus is present, but we don't have the 21" demountable rim. the spare would have only had the rim and tire, not the wood spokes, which stayed on the car while you removed the bolts around the outer edge of the wheel.
