To get a sense of the elegance and prestige embodied by the Lincoln Motor Company’s early automotive offerings, look no further than this 1925 Model L “Beetle Back” Roadster by Brunn & Co. Subtler than the boattail speedsters that would emerge a few years further into the Jazz Age, it is no less sporty—and unlike a typical boattail, it affords room for a rumble seat in the rear. Its looks are backed by Lincoln’s 357-cubic inch L-head “Fork and Blade” V-8, which provides 90 bhp. Extensive research indicates that six roadsters of this design were built.
