The Lincoln Motor Car Company was a name changing from the American Motorette Company. Like the American Voiturette Company it were set-up by former Keeton officials. The car was called the Lincoln Highway.[1]

The Highway Model was a brass era roadster with seating for three passengers, one sitting in front of the driver. The body used a Renault style hood on a 100-inch wheelbase. It had a 4-cylinder engine and weighed 1,050 lb (480 kg), and sold for $595, equivalent to $15,209 in 2023. Production was very limited.[1]
