Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Chicago is proud to present this truly one of a kind 1978 Lincoln Continental Mark V. This dove gray Continental has a 460 cubic inch V8 paired to a 3-speed automatic transmission under the hood. More noticeably, the roof has been completely removed, making this Mark V a full-time roadster. Though a parade cover completes the convertible look, there is no soft top nor any frame for a soft top on the vehicle. The massive V8 has a smooth idle, with the most subtle of exhaust sounds. This is, after all, a personal luxury car. The braking system has recently been serviced, and the Lincoln stops smoothly and easily. Power seats will let you get in the most comfortable driving position with ease, and this full size coupe is happy to take on the open road.

About Lincoln
Lincoln, often regarded as more than just an upmarket Ford, has carved its own niche in the automotive world with a rich history and a lineup of distinctive models. Let's take a stroll down the memory lane of Lincoln's story.Early Beginnings:
Founded in 1917 by Henry Leland, the man behind the Cadillac brand, Lincoln initially started as a luxury automobile company. The brand quickly gained a reputation for its quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.
The Ford Era:
In 1922, Lincoln was acquired by the Ford Motor Company, and this marked the beginning of a long association. Ford aimed to position Lincoln as its luxury division, competing with other prestigious brands in the market.
Classic Models:
Over the years, Lincoln introduced several iconic models that left a lasting impact on the automotive landscape:
Lincoln Continental: Launched in the 1940s, the Continental became an instant classic. Its elegant design and iconic suicide doors made it a symbol of luxury and sophistication.
Lincoln Town Car: Introduced in the 1980s, the Town Car became synonymous with chauffeur-driven luxury. Its spacious interior and smooth ride made it a favorite among executives and dignitaries.
Lincoln Navigator: The late '90s saw the rise of the SUV craze, and Lincoln was quick to respond with the Navigator. A full-size luxury SUV, the Navigator combined opulence with utility and became a popular choice among affluent families.
