Vehicle Description
A true luxury classic that's also a complete survivor like this
should not be this affordable. But as you look over every inch of
this 1972 Lincoln Continental Mark IV, you'll be amazed at the
level of preservation that has endured for 45 years. In fact, it's
so nice, the only thing that won't last long on this coupe is its
time in our showroom.
Pastel Lime is a great color to represent a 1970s machine like
this. But more than just the right color, you're going to be able
to wow everyone with the condition of this paint that was applied
over four decades ago at Lincoln's Michigan facility. This level of
shine and luster is a sure sign of a lifetime of garage care. Even
the luxury vinyl roof is complete and soft to the touch. So, the
kind of luxury you expected from Lincoln in '72 remains today. But
it's more than just color that makes it distinctive. This is a year
for lovers of intricate design. The front has the Rolls-Royce style
grille and 1970s chic flat front hidden headlights. This is
accented by attractive parking light lenses that are miniature
works of casting genius. Out back, the deck lid features the
Continental's trademark spare tire hump/continental kit. And
because it was built before new bumper laws, they fit flush with
the body as an integral part of the design. It was all part of
Lincoln's upper class image, so it's essential that it's all as
crisp and pristine as you see on this example.
Inside is even more survivor-grade luxury. We know you love how the
interior green cloth and vinyl are the perfect match for the
exterior vinyl roof. The pillow-top seats have that feeling of true
cruising luxury, and you have the choice to seat six total, or fold
down the front armrest to give you true individual luxury. As
expected from a vehicle of this caliber, there are plenty of
factory luxuries, including power seats, power locks, power
windows, cruise control, and the stereo is still the correct
factory 8-track unit. So just imagine how much survivor-minded
judges will love this one (that's why it has already received an
award from Hemmings!) There is even factory air conditioning. As
you slip behind the wood and green steering wheel, you get the
tingle to take this one out for a cruise. So while the coupe has
only averaged around 1,500 miles annually over its lifetime, we
know you won't be able to resist adding to that total.
Ford's smooth and refined 460 cubic inch V8 with four-barrel
carburetor provides effortless performance in the Continental. This
was the beginning of the lower compression era, and since the motor
is suspected to be original, that's a good thing. That means it's a
survivor that's built to handle unleaded. Plus, the big V8 retains
enough torque to pull a boat. Of course, you will likely never want
to tow a yacht in this big bodied car, but it's this kind of
available strength that allows you to smoothly and quickly cruise
away from the stoplight. Fans of originality will love how the big
blue Ford engine looks as factory-fresh as the exterior. While this
is the perfect car for the drive-in (after all, its interior is
more comfortable than any movie theater seat,) there's much more to
the coupe. It has power steering, front disc brakes, and a
three-speed automatic transmission. This is the kind of luxury that
can easily take you in comfort to car shows as far away as you
want.
Complete with the original warranty card, here's the kind of
vintage luxury that you thought was impossible to find today. And
not only is it ready right now, but also it's exceptionally
affordable, too. So don't miss out, call today!
