Lincoln Continental Mark VI V 460 V8 1977

General description : ALL-ORIGINAL MARK V, ULTIMATE LUXURY, BELIEVED TO BE ACTUAL MILES, LOADED!!

Despite decades of engineering progress, nobody has managed to duplicate the floating, effortless feeling of a true American Luxury car like this 1977 Lincoln Mark V. With a giant V8 up front, chiseled features, and a long list of features, this is as close as you're going to find to the ultimate American luxury car experience. If you were at the top of the world in 1977, THIS is what you drove.
With such careful maintenance and low ownership on this car, you know the bodywork is excellent. Body gaps and fit are still just as the assembly line workers bolted it together, and the paint is as nice as 1977 technology would allow, although there's a little overspray on the urethane bumper fillers, which have been repainted. The color is elegant and sophisticated and doesn't date the car as badly as some of the other choices available in 1977, making this one a great choice for the serious collectors. The original burgundy vinyl padded half-roof remains in outstanding, unblemished condition thanks to years of careful ownership, and the chrome is factory fresh, and there sure is a lot of it! Lenses, the hood ornament, and the rub strips along the lower flanks of the car are all in showroom condition. And yes, the folding headlights work properly; this really is as close as you're going to find to a new 1977 Lincoln Continental.
Inside, the burgundy leather interior is the epitome of '70s luxury. Sure, it looks a little bit like Hugh Hefner's living room, but you can't argue with the preservation and amazing comfort levels. You are enveloped by soft power driver's seat, which offers plenty of support for long-haul cruising, making this a fantastic road trip car. There are a lot of controls for all the power options, ranging from power windows and locks, to cruise control on the steering wheel, to the Twilight Sentinel that automatically turns the headlights on and off. Of course, A/C and a tilt wheel are included, as well as an AM/FM/cassette stereo that sounds great in the hushed Lincoln interior. Deep pile carpet and tons of sound insulation reduce wind noise to little more than a whisper, and there's a relatively rare factory sunroof overhead. What's better is that everything is fully functional save for the Cartier clock, which is pretty common on any vintage vehicle. Even the trunk shows well, with mouse fur mats and what may be the original space saver spare tire with a complete jack assembly.
Lincoln's 460 V8 won the displacement war, as Cadillac downsized to a 425 V8 in 1977. Entirely original and showing proper maintenance, the engine bay is packed with wires and hoses, all dedicated to making the big Lincoln waft along in eerie silence. The big V8 makes enough torque to give the sensation of limitless acceleration, much like an electric motor, and drives the power accessories without hesitation. Hoses, belts, and other routine maintenance items have been replaced, but for the most part it's 100% stock and original under the hood. A C6 3-speed automatic shifts almost imperceptibly, and with 2.73 gears in the 9-inch rear end, this car is as great a highway cruiser as you'd expect. Unblemished alloy turbine wheels wear 235/75/15 whitewall radials for a classic Lincoln look.
The world will never again see cars like this, and you'll be amazed by how well this one looks, drives and handles, and how much attention it gets on the road. Call today!

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.
