Family Car For Sale

A car which has been in our family for three generations (not including my own) is being offered up for sale.

This 1930 Lincoln Sport Phaeton was purchased by John Butler in 1938.  A bill of sale shows that it was bought used for $195 (equivalent to about $3300 today).  The car was used on a family trip to Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon, then returned to New York City and was later retired to Vermont.  I vaguely remember seeing it stored in the garage of the family farm in Marlboro, VT, and more recently had a chance to see it in storage.

I hope some new owner will find joy with this classic.  For more photos, history and sale details, visit The Old Motor.
