AI Listing Summary
This 1928 Lincoln Model L Town Car, once used by the American Embassy in London, boasts a unique history and RHD configuration. Though its original engine is included, it has been replaced with a Ford V8, and the car is sold 'as is,' requiring careful inspection by bidders.

The car is described as being in original condition after residency in an Irish Motor Museum. However, the original engine has been replaced, which affects originality. There are film and TV credits, which adds to its appeal, but the 'as is' sale condition requires bidders to verify its condition, age, completeness, and originality.
