KB 3358roadUnited States
Engine
6.8L (414 cu in) V12, 150 hp

A rare 1934 Lincoln Model K sport phaeton, one of only two built on special order in the factory's own shops and the sole surviving example. Riding the long 145-inch KB chassis and powered by a 414.1 cu. in. V-12, it features distinctive curved rear-door wind deflectors and a retractable tonneau windshield. Delivered new on 23 April 1934 per Henry Ford Museum records, it retains its original V-12 engine and has accumulated fewer than 24,000 miles, believed to be its total since new.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
